SPECIMEN SIZE AND SHAPE AND ITS EFFECT ON ACCURACYA1.1 GeneralA1.1.1 Specimens of sizes and shapes other than the 8.000-in.2(51

17、.613-cm2) circle maybe used provided consideration isgiven to controllable factors affecting the accuracy of themethod. Specifically, the area of the specimen shall be knownand controlled to an accuracy of 60.1 %, and the minimummass of the specimen shall be 70 mg. Specimens ranging insize from 8 to

18、 32 in.2(52 to 206 cm2) are convenient to handleand can be prepared to meet the aforementioned requirements.A1.2 Source of ErrorA1.2.1 Inherent errors in determining thickness by the massmeasurement method result from the limits on the accuracy ofthe density value assigned to the alloy, the accuracy

19、 with whicha specimen can be cut and its area determined, and theaccuracy of the mass measurement. Much time could bedevoted to a discussion of refinement of errors but it shallsuffice here to draw on experience as a guide for determiningthe accuracy of the method.A1.3 Error from Uncertainty of the

20、Densities of the Speci-men (ED)A1.3.1 The density of aluminum foil or sheet alloys shall bethose listed in Table 1 or it shall be determined by the methoddescribed in Annex A2. Values so obtained are accurate to6 0.3 % of the true density. The error imposed by uncertaintyof the density then is ED= 6

21、 0.3 % of the thickness deter-mined.A1.4 Error from Control of the Area of the Specimen (EA)A1.4.1 Aprecision blanking press can cut a specimen whosearea is known and reproducible to an accuracy of 60.1 %. If dis the specific diameter required to provide the area used in thethickness computation, th

22、en the error in area resulting from asmall error, d, in the diameter is 200 d/d %. It follows thenthat to maintain an area accurate to 60.1 %, the tolerance onthe diameter of the blanked circle shall be 60.0005 times thecircle diameter. The fact that the tolerance on diameter de-creases in direct pr

23、oportion to the diameter is a factor toconsider in selecting the specimen size to use in the method.Compliance with this tolerance limits the area error toEA= 6 0.1 % of the thickness determined.A1.5 Error from Measuring the Mass of the Specimen(EM)A1.5.1 The accuracy of measuring the mass of a foil

24、 orsheet specimen has been found to be 0.7 mg. This imposes amaximum error on the method of 6 0.07/(TAD) % of thethickness determined. Since D, density of the foil or sheet, isfixed, it is seen that the magnitude of the mass measurementTABLE 1 Densities of Aluminum Foil or Sheet Alloys Applicableto

27、men. The area, A, is a controllablefactor in the method, and the importance of selecting a largearea to minimize the overall percentage error in the method forthin foil or sheet is apparent from a few simple calculations.The product TAD is the mass of the specimen in grams, so toprevent the mass mea

28、surement error from introducing errors inexcess of 6 1.0 %, it is necessary that the mass of the specimenbe larger than 70 mg. The maximum error in the method due tomass measurement then is EM= 6 0.07/ (TAD) %ofthethickness determined.A1.6 Maximum Error of the MethodA1.6.1 If ED, EA, and EMrepresent

29、 the errors in percentageof thickness determined as imposed by the limits of accuracy ofdensity, area, and mass measurement, respectively, then themaximum error of the method is (ED+EA+EM) percent of thethickness determined. Since these errors at a given test locationare normally in the nature of a

30、bias rather than random error,the accuracy of the method is best described in terms of thismaximum error. The maximum error of the method in percentis as follows:ED1EA1EM5F0.410.07TAD!Gwhere TAD is the mass of the specimen in grams.A2. CALCULATING THE DENSITY OF ALUMINUM ALLOYSA2.1 CalculationA2.1.1

31、 The following describes the procedures used tocalculate nominal densities of aluminum and aluminum alloys.A2.1.2 The form shown in Table A2.1 is convenient formaking such calculations. A sample calculation is shown for5052 alloy.A2.1.2.1 For each alloying element, the arithmetic mean ofits register

32、ed limits is determined. The mean is rounded to thenumber of places indicated in Table A2.2. Rounding, exceptwhen specified otherwise, shall be in accordance with therounding method of Practice E29.A2.1.2.2 For each impurity element or combination ofimpurity elements for which a maximum limit is reg

33、istered, anarithmetic mean is determined using zero as the minimumlimit. The mean is rounded to the number of places indicated inTable A2.1.A2.1.2.3 For impurity elements having a combined limit(such as Si + Fe), each of the elements is considered to have anequal concentration. The concentrations ar

34、e calculated bydividing the mean determined for the combined limit inA2.1.2.2 by the number of elements in the combined limit.Each element concentration is rounded to the number of placesindicated in Table A2.1.A2.1.2.4 The element concentrations in A2.1.2.1 A2.1.2.3are totaled and then subtracted f

For1XXX series aluminum, calculated aluminum content may beless than the specified minimum aluminum content.Nevertheless, the calculated aluminum content should

36、 be usedfor purposes of this calculation procedure.A2.1.2.5 Each element concentration determined inA2.1.2.1 A2.1.2.4 is multiplied by the value 1/Density givenin Table A2.2. Each of these results is rounded to three decimalplaces.TABLE A2.1 Density Calculations of Aluminum and AluminumAlloys at 20C

42、um alloys having a specifiedminimum aluminum content less than 99.35 %, the valueobtained is rounded to the nearest multiple of .01 and ex-pressed as X.XX.NOTE A2.1Limiting the expression of density to the number ofdecimal places indicated above is based on the fact that compositionvariations are di

43、scernible from one cast to another for most alloys. Theexpression of density values to more decimal places than is outlined aboveinfers a higher precision than is justified and should not be used.A2.1.2.8 The density in g/in.3is calculated by multiplyingthe value obtained in A2.1.2.7 by 16.387 and r

USE OF METHOD FOR POLYETHYLENE FILMA3.1 ScopeA3.1.1 This method is ap

45、plicable to a wide range of film,foil, or sheet. As an example of the slight modificationsrequired for adaptation to other materials, the procedurerecommended for polyethylene film of 0.002 in. (0.05 mm) andless in thickness is described.A3.2 ApparatusA3.2.1 A hand striking die is a convenient way t

The precision blanking press with the polyethylenefilm on a piece of paper will also produce good results, but anyother method capable of the desired precision may be used.A3.3 Test SpecimenA3.3.1 Because of the lower density of polyethylene film, aminimum specimen of 16.000 6 0.0

47、16 in.2(103.23 6 0.10cm2) is recommended; other specimen sizes may be used asdiscussed in Annex A1. If there is evidence of surfacecontamination, the specimen may be wiped clean with a drycloth or tissue, but no solvent should be used.A3.4 CalculationsA3.4.1 The density of polyethylene film may be d

48、etermineddirectly by Test Method D1505. In many cases the film densitywill be known within the accuracy needed for this method(about 0.5 %) from specifications or previous experience.Polyethylene density is usually reported in g/cm3. To convertthis to g/in.3as needed in this calculation, multiply by
