Scope1.1 This specification covers zinc and tin alloy wire, includ-ing zinc-aluminum, zinc-aluminum-copper, zinc-ti
3、n, zinc-tin-copper and tin-zinc, used as thermal spray wire in the elec-tronics industry.1.1.1 Certain alloys specified in this standard are also usedas solders for the purpose of joining together two or moremetals at temperatures below their melting points, and for otherpurposes (as noted in Annex
4、A1). Specification B 907 coversZinc, Tin and Cadmium BaseAlloys Used as Solders which areused primarily for the purpose of joining together two or moremetals at temperatures below their melting points and for otherpurposes (as noted in the Annex part of Specification B 907).Specification B 833 cover
5、s Zinc and Zinc Alloy Wire forThermal Spraying (Metallizing) used primarily for the corro-sion protection of steel (as noted in the Annex part ofSpecification B 833).1.1.2 Tin base alloys are included in this specificationbecause their use in the electronics industry is similar to the useof certain
6、zinc alloys but different than the major use of the tinand lead solder compositions specified in Specification B32.1.1.3 These wire alloys have a nominal liquidus temperaturenot exceeding 850F (455C).1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas the standard. The values given in par
7、entheses are forinformation only.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to become familiarwith all hazards including those identified in the appropriateMaterial Safety Data Sheet (
