United States15.3 Dimensions and Permissible Variations (ExplanatoryNote 2)The wire sizes shall be expressed as the diameter ofthe wire in decimal fractions of an inch to the nearest 0.0001 in.(0.0025 mm).
16、 The tin-coated wire shall not vary from thespecified diameter by more than the amounts prescribed inTable 3.5.4 Continuity of CoatingThe tin coating shall be continu-ous. The continuity of coating on the wire shall be determinedon representative samples taken before stranding or insulating.The cont
17、inuity of tinning shall be determined by the hydro-chloric acid-sodium polysulfide test in accordance with 6.4.5.5 Thickness of CoatingThe wire shall have adequatefree tin (Explanatory Note 1) to insure meeting solderabilityrequirements as prescribed in 5.8. The thickness of coatingshall be at the m
18、anufacturers discretion or as agreed uponbetween the manufacturer and purchaser to insure complianceto 5.8 and further processing for solderability performanceafter insulation.5.6 Adherence of CoatingThe tin coating shall be firmlyadherent to the surface of the copper. The adherence of coatingon the
19、 wire shall be determined on representative samplestaken after electroplating and prior to final drawing. Theadherence of coating shall be determined by the wrapping testin accordance with 6.6.5.7 JointsNecessary joints in the completed wire and inthe wire and rods prior to final drawing shall be ma
20、de inaccordance with the best commercial practice.5.8 SolderabilityThe solder must cover greater than 95 %of the surface of the specimen and show evidence of goodwetting and of bonding. The solderability shall be tested inaccordance with 6.7.5.9 FinishThe coating shall consist of a smooth continu-ou
21、s layer, firmly adherent to the surface of the copper. The wireshall be free of all imperfections not consistent with the bestcommercial practice.6. Test Methods6.1 Tensile Strength and Elongation (Explanatory Note 4):6.1.1 No test for tensile strength shall be required.6.1.2 The elongation of wire
22、with a nominal diametergreater than 0.0808 in. (2.052 mm) shall be determined as thepermanent increase in length due to the breaking of the wire intension. The elongation shall be measured between gage marksplaced originally 10 in. (242 mm) apart upon the test specimenand expressed in percent of the
23、 original length.6.1.3 The elongation of wire with a nominal diameter equalto or less than 0.0808 in. (2.053 mm) may be determined asdescribed above or by measurements made between the jaws ofthe testing machine. When measurements are made betweenthe jaws, the zero length shall be the distance betwe

They shall be tagged or markedto correspond with the coil, spool, or reel from which they werecut.6.4.2 Treatment of SpecimensThe specimens shall bethoroughly cleaned by immersi
34、on in a suitable organic solventfor at least 3 min; then removed and wiped dry with a clean,soft cloth (Cautionsee Explanatory Note 5). The specimensthus cleaned shall be kept wrapped in a clean, dry cloth untiltested. That part of the specimen to be immersed in the testsolution shall not be handled
35、. Care shall be taken to avoidabrasion by the cut ends.6.4.3 Special Solutions Required:6.4.3.1 Hydrochloric Acid Solution (HCl) (sp gr 1.088)Commercial HCl (sp gr 1.12) shall be diluted with distilledwater to a specific gravity of 1.088 measured at 15.6C (60F).A portion of HCl solution having a vol
36、ume of 180 mL shall beconsidered to be exhausted when the number of test specimensprescribed in Table 4 of a size as indicated in 6.4.3 have beenimmersed in it for two cycles.6.4.3.2 Sodium Polysulfide Solution (sp gr 1.142) (Explana-tory Note 6)A concentrated solution shall be made bydissolving sod
37、ium sulfide crystals (cp) in distilled water untilthe solution is saturated at about 21C (70F), and addingsufficient flowers of sulfur (in excess of 250 g/L of solution) toprovide complete saturation, as shown by the presence in thesolution of an excess of sulfur after the solution has beenallowed t
38、o stand for at least 24 h. The test solution shall bemade by diluting a portion of the concentrated solution withdistilled water to a specific gravity of 1.135 to 1.145 at 15.6C(60F). The sodium polysulfide test solution should havesufficient strength to blacken thoroughly a piece of cleanuntinned c
39、opper wire in 5 s. The test solution used for testingsamples shall be considered exhausted if it fails to blacken apiece of clean copper as described above.6.4.4 Procedure:6.4.4.1 Immersion of SpecimensImmerse a length of atleast 4-1/2 in. (114 mm) from each of the clean specimens, inaccordance with
40、 the following cycles, in test solutions main-tained at a temperature between 15.6 and 21C (60 and 70F):(1) Immerse the specimen for 1 min in the HCl solutiondescribed in 6.4.2, wash, and wipe dry; (2) immerse thespecimen for 30 s in the sodium polysulfide solution describedin 6.4.2, wash, and wipe
41、dry; (3) immerse the specimen for 1min in the HCl solution, wash, and dry; (4) immerse thespecimen for 30 s in the sodium polysulfide solution, wash, andwipe dry.6.4.4.2 Washing SpecimensAfter each immersion, imme-diately wash the specimens thoroughly in clean water and wipedry with a clean, soft cl
42、oth.6.4.4.3 Examination of SpecimensAfter immersion andwashing, examine the specimens to ascertain if copper exposedthrough openings in the tin coating has been blackened byaction of the sodium polysulfide. The specimens shall beconsidered to have failed if, by such blackening, exposedcopper is reve
43、aled. No attention shall be paid to blackeningwithin 0.5 in. (12.7 mm) of the cut end. A grayish brownappearance of the coating shall not constitute failure.TABLE 2 Electrical Resistivity RequirementsNominal Diameter Resistivity at 20Cin. mm lb/mile2g/m20.460 to 0.290, incl 11.7 to 7.4, incl 896.15
