1、Designation: B440 11Standard Specification forCadmium1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B440; 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 year o

2、f last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This specification covers refined cadmium metal in slab,ball or stick form.1.2 ToxicityWarning: Soluble and respirable forms ofcadmium may be harmful to human health and the en

3、vironmentin certain forms and concentrations. Therefore, ingestion andinhalation of cadmium should be controlled under the appro-priate regulations of the U.S. Occupational Safety and HealthAdministration (OSHA). Cadmium-containing alloys and coat-ings should not be used on articles that will contac

4、t food orbeverages, or for dental and other equipment that is normallyinserted in the mouth. Similarly, if articles using cadmium-containing alloys or coatings are welded, soldered, brazed,ground, “flame-cut,” or otherwise heated during fabrication,adequate ventilation must be provided to maintain o

5、ccupationalcadmium exposure below the OSHA Permissible ExposureLevel (PEL).1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.4 This s

9、Terms shall be defined in accordance with TerminologyB899.4. Ordering Information4.1 Orders for cadmium under this specification shall in-clude the following information:4.1.1 ASTM designation,4.1.2 Quantity (weight),4.1.3 Grade (Table 1), and4.1.4 Shape and size (Section 7).5. Materials and Manufac

10、ture5.1 The cadmium shall be furnished in commercial standardforms or shapes requested by purchaser.6. Chemical Requirements6.1 The cadmium supplied shall conform to the require-ments of Table 1 for one of the three grades.7. Shape and Size7.1 Various forms and sizes of commercially availablecadmium

15、ingforeign material.9. Sampling for Chemical Analysis9.1 The producer may obtain representative samples fromthe molten metal during casting, and all or part of thesesamples may be cast into shapes suitable for analysis.9.2 For sampling cadmium in slab form a minimum of twopieces shall be selected fo

16、r shipments of 500 lb or less, threepieces for shipments of 500 to 1000 lb (227 to 454 kg), and oneadditional piece for each additional 1000 lb or part thereof. Forcadmium in ball or stick form a minimum of four pieces shallbe selected for shipments of 500 lb or less, six pieces forshipments of 500

17、to 1000 lb and two additional pieces for eachadditional 1000 lb or part thereof.9.3 The selected pieces shall be cleaned to rid the surface ofextraneous material and then sawed, drilled, or milled, carebeing taken to avoid errors due to segregation within thepieces. The saw, drill, or cutter used sh

18、all be thoroughlycleaned. No lubricant shall be used in the operation, and thesawings, drillings, or millings shall be treated with a magnet toremove any particles of steel introduced in the taking of thesamples. Equal weights of the sawings, drillings, or millingsshall be taken from each piece samp

19、led, and then combinedinto one sample and thoroughly mixed. The total sampleweight shall be not less than 300 g.9.4 In those cases where the cadmium involved is in someother shape or form that does not lend itself to any of the abovemethods, the sampling procedure shall be agreed upon betweenthe man

20、ufacturer or seller and purchaser. The method of 9.1offers many advantages.9.5 Aspects of sampling and sample preparation not coveredspecifically in this specification shall be carried out in accor-dance with Practice E88.10. Method of Chemical Analysis10.1 The chemical requirements enumerated in Ta

21、ble 1shall, in case of disagreement, be determined by methodsmutually agreed upon or by Test Methods E396.11. Rejection11.1 Material which fails to conform to the requirements ofthis specification may be rejected.12. Claims12.1 Claims to be considered shall be made to manufactureror seller in writin

22、g within 30 days of receipt of material at thepurchasers plant, and the results of the test made by thepurchaser shall accompany such claims. The manufacturer orseller shall be given 2 weeks from the receipt of the complaintto investigate his records and shall either agree to satisfy theclaim, obtai

23、n a sample of the metal for investigation, or send arepresentative to the plant of the purchaser.12.2 No claims shall be considered unless the minimumnumber of samples of unused cadmium shapes can be shown tosuch representative.12.3 In a question of chemical composition, a sample shallbe drawn by re

24、presentatives of both parties in accordance withSection 10. The properly mixed and quartered sample shall beseparated into three parts, each of which shall be placed in asealed package, one for the manufacturer or seller, one for thepurchaser and one for an umpire, if necessary. The manufac-turer or

25、 seller and purchaser shall each perform an analysis. Ifthe results do not establish or dismiss the claim to thesatisfaction of both parties, the third sample shall be submittedto a mutually agreeable umpire who shall determine thequestion of quality and whose determination shall be final.13.
