(Test Method)Standard Test Method for Gravimetric Determination of Phosphorus in Phosphorus-Copper Alloys or Phosphorus-Copper-Silver Alloys (Withdrawn 2006)
Standard Test Method for Gravimetric Determination of Phosphorus in Phosphorus-Copper Alloys or Phosphorus-Copper-Silver Alloys (Withdrawn 2006)
SCOPE
1.1 This test method covers the gravimetric determination of phosphorus in phosphorus-copper or phosphorus-copper-silver alloys containing 1 to 15 % phosphorus.
1.2 This standard does not purport to address the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
WITHDRAWN RATIONALE
This test method covers the gravimetric determination of phosphorus in phosphorus-copper or phosphorus-copper-silver alloys containing 1 to 15 % phosphorus.
Formerly under the jurisdiction of Committee E01 on Analytical Chemistry of Metals, Ores, and Other Materials, this test method was withdrawn in July 2006.
