15、. Number of Tests and Retests9.1 Chemical AnalysisThe manufacturer and purchasershall agree on a representative number of specimens forchemical analysis. A representative sample of chips may beobtained by milling, drilling, or crushing with dry tools,(without lubrication). In order to obtain free ch

16、ips, the partsselected for test shall have the oil extracted in accordance withTest Method B328, if necessary.9.2 Physical TestsThe manufacturer and purchaser shallagree on a representative number of specimens, for physicaltests including microstructure.10. Significance and Use10.1 Proprietary metho

17、ds for manufacture of these materialsvary significantly among suppliers and these methods influencesuch properties as arc erosion, contact resistance, and thetendency to weld in service. Since the performance of contactsin a device depends on numerous factors outside the contactitself (opening speed

18、, closing speed, contact pressure, contactbounce, environmental variations, assembly technique andvariations, etc.), this specification cannot ensure performancecontrol in the application. As part of the qualification on initialsamples, it is recommended that the user functionally test thematerials

19、electrically for all devices applicable to the materialsuse. This specification provides a means for the contactmanufacturer and contact user to reach agreement on thedetails of material to be supplied for a specific use andreasonable assurance that future lots will be similar in proper-ties and mic

20、rostructure to the initial test or sample contactsupplied.11. Inspection11.1 Inspection of the material shall be agreed upon be-tween the purchaser and the supplier as part of the purchasecontract.12. Rejection and Rehearing12.1 Unless otherwise specified, rejections based on testsmade in accordance

21、 with the specification shall be reported tothe manufacturer within 30 days of the receipt of shipment.13. Certification13.1 When a request is made at the time of cost quotationand when specified in the purchase order or contract, aproducers or suppliers certification shall be furnished to thepurcha

22、ser that the material was manufactured, sampled, tested,and inspected in accordance with this specification and hasbeen found to meet the requirements. When specified in thepurchase order or contract, a report of the test results shall befurnished.14. Keywords14.1 contacts; electrical contacts; elec

23、trical contact materi-als; impurities; silver-nickelAPPENDIX(Nonmandatory Information)X1. Typical Property ValuesX1.1 The following information provides guidelines forusers and manufacturers of silver-nickel contact materials(Table X1.1). These properties are influenced by particle size,homogeneity,

24、 impurities or additives, and other manufacturingprocess variables. For example, the specific gravity and hard-ness of fabricated wire or strip, in general, are higher than forpresssinter-repress materials. Tensile strength values versus theamount of cold work for wire varies considerably dependingu

25、pon the annealing temperature used and the microstructure.The best choice for a given application should be mutuallydecided between the purchaser and the supplier, using theirmutual experience and application knowledge.X1.2 With the knowledge that many manufacturing processvariables are available, i
