The nomenclature covers commercial zinc andzinc-aluminum (ZA) alloys in ingot form for remelting for themanufacture of pressure die castings and foundry castings, asdesignated and specified in Tabl

39、e 1.X1.2 Several different systems of nomenclature haveevolved over the years to designate the zinc alloys used forcasting, as listed in Table X1.1.X1.2.1 Common names refer to the long established zinccasting alloys by number based their sequential developmentpreceded by the word Alloy. Zinc-alumin

40、um alloys (with ahigher aluminum content that the conventional zinc die castingalloys) use the prefix ZA followed by their approximatealuminum content. These terms are in common usage.X1.2.2 Traditional names for the long established zinccasting alloys use the prefix ZAMAK which was devised basedon

41、the major elements present: zinc, aluminum, magnesiumand kopper (copper). Zinc-aluminum alloys use the prefix ZAfollowed by their approximate aluminum content. These termsare in common usage.X1.2.3 ASTM designations are established in Practice B275based on alloy chemistry. The first letter, A, refer

42、s to theprincipal alloying element, aluminum. The second letter, G(magnesium) or C (copper), refers to the second most signifi-cant alloying element. The first number, 4, refers to thenominal aluminum content. The second number refers to thenominal content to the second most significant alloying ele

43、-ment. The last letter, A or B, differentiates between alloys ofsimilar composition. Prior to the adoption of this designationsystem by ASTM, alloys were identified by Roman numerals,for example, XXI, XXIII and XV designated AC43A, AG40Aand AC41A, respectively.X1.2.4 UNS numbers are established in P

44、ractice E527(SAE J1086) as part of a Unified Numbering System to providea unique designation for each metal grade and alloy in useworldwide. Zinc alloys start with the prefix “Z” followed byfive numbers. The first digit is based on the major alloyingelement, the second digit provides a further sub-c

45、lassificationbased on secondary and tertiary alloying elements, the thirddigit designates the nominal composition of the of the majoralloying element, the fourth digit designates the nominalconcentration of the second most important alloying element,and the fifth digit allows a unique number to be e
