1、Designation: B224 14B224 15Standard Classification ofCoppers1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B224; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the
2、 year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This is a classification of the various types of copper currently available in refinery shapes and wrought products incommercial quantities. It is not a specification fo
3、r the various types of copper.1.2 In this classification, use is made of the standard copper designations in use by the copper industry.1.3 Although this classification includes certain UNS designations as described in Practice E527, these designations are forcross-reference only and are not require
4、ments. Therefore, in case of conflict, this ASTM classification shall govern.1.4 This classification does not attempt to differentiate between all compositions that could be termed either coppers orcopper-base alloys, but in conformance with general usage in the trade, includes those coppers in whic
5、h the copper plus specificpermitted elements is specified as 99.85 % or more, silver being counted as copper.NOTE 1Coppers may contain small amounts of certain elements intentionally permitted to impart specific properties, without excessively loweringelectrical conductivity. The total copper plus s
6、pecific permitted elements is usually specified as 99.85 % or more. These intentionally permitted elementsnormally include, but are not limited to, arsenic, cadmium, chromium, lead, magnesium, silver, sulfur, tellurium, tin, zinc, and zirconium, plusdeoxidizers, up to specific levels adopted by the

It is useful to the neophyte looking for the appropriate copper fora particular application.5. Basis of Classification5.1 Table 1 lists the standard designations, and the refiner
