General Conditions for Delivery3.1 Materials furnished to this specification shall conform tothe requirements of Specification A1025, including any supple-mentary requirements that are indicated in
4、 the purchase order.Failure to comply with the general requirements of Specifica-tion A1025 constitutes nonconformance with this specification.In case of conflict between the requirements of this specifica-tion and Specification A1025, this specification shall prevail.4. Chemical Requirements4.1 The
5、 chemical requirements are shown in Table 1.5. Sampling for Chemical Analysis5.1 The material shall be sampled in accordance withprocedures outlined below:5.1.1 The sample shall be taken by cutting across the entirestream at regular intervals during the time of movement of themass being sampled. The
6、 quantity to be taken at each intervaland the number of such intervals shall be so proportioned thatthe total quantity taken shall amount to not less than 0.40 % ofthe total material being sampled.5.2 Treatment of Sample:5.2.1 In the case of nickel oxide sinter 75, the samplerepresenting each shipme
7、nt or lot shall be reduced in amountusing a riffle splitter or other suitable mechanical splitter to1000 g. This 1000-g sample shall be placed in an oven at 250F(121C) for12 h to remove any traces of moisture, and thenpulverized to pass an 80-mesh screen using appropriate equip-ment to avoid sample
8、contamination. Approximately 250 g ofthis pulverized material shall be split out for copper and sulfurassays, using a riffle splitter or other suitable mechanicalsplitter. The unused portion of individual shipment (or lot)samples whose copper and sulphur assays are within specifi-cation shall be com
9、bined by weight into two, three, or four lotcomposites. Approximately 250 g of the composited materialshall be split out, using a riffle splitter or other suitablemechanical splitter and analyzed for nickel. This nickel analy-sis shall apply to each shipment (or lot) comprising thecomposite.6. Keywo
