For the first time ever, we bring the summery of basic chemical, physical properties,
tolerances and test procedures of some of the commonly used ASTM standards and specification
for non ferrous metals

Copper

Aluminium

|
A silverylight and malleable metallic element, having a valency of 3. It is the
most abundant metal in the earth’s crust, but it does not occur in uncombined form
in nature and was obtained in the pure state only in 1825. Although very reactive
it forms a tough surface layer of oxide when exposed to air, protecting it against
further corrosion. Its lightness, good thermal and electrical conductivity and strength
(when alloyed) have led to its widespread use in domestic utensils, engineering
parts, and aircraft construction. The main commercial ore is Bauxite, but Aluminium
is also a major constituent of clays and feldspars.Chemical symbol: Al.and Atomic
No: 13. Listed below are those standards included in 1998 Annual Book of ASTM Vol.02.02
and other sources as well. |
