1、Designation: B540 97 (Reapproved 2017)Standard Specification forPalladium Electrical Contact Alloy1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B540; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision.

2、 A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers an alloy containing

3、palladium,silver, copper, gold, platinum, and zinc in the form of wire, rod,and strip for electrical contacts.1.2 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

4、 not considered standard.1.3 It is the responsibility of the user to become familiarwith all hazards including those identified in the appropriateSafety Data Sheet (SDS) for this product/material as providedby the manufacturer.1.4 The following safety hazard caveat pertains only to thetest methods p

5、ortion, Section 6 of this specification. Thisstandard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the userof this standard to become familiar with all hazards includingthose identified in the appropriate Safety Data Sheet (SDS)

6、forthis product/material as provided by the manufacturer, toestablish appropriate safety, health, and environmentalpractices, and determine the applicability of regulatory limi-tations prior to use.1.5 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principle

10、ecification shall meet therequirements of chemical composition shown in Table 1.5. Mechanical Properties5.1 The contract or order may specify ultimate tensilestrength, elongation, mirohardness (Knoop or Vickers), or acombination of these mechanical properties (as listed in Table2, Table 3, and Table

11、 4) as temper criterion. If the contract ororder does not specify a temper criterion, then the criterion fortemper designation will be ultimate tensile strength and elon-gation.6. Test Methods6.1 Test methods shall be in accordance with SpecificationB476.6.1.1 Knoop hardness tests shall be in accord

12、ance with TestMethod E384. Material 0.005 in. (0.13 mm) in thickness(diameter) and larger shall be tested using a 100-g indenterload. Material less than 0.005 in. (0.13 mm) in thickness(diameter) shall be tested using a 50-g indenter load. Aminimum of five hardness indentations shall be made on each

13、specimen. All indentations shall be made so that the long axisof the indenter is parallel to the rolling or drawing direction ofthe material. The hardness value reported shall be the averageof the five indentations.6.1.2 All tension test specimens shall be full cross-sectionsize when practical (see
