Aluminium and aluminium alloys - Scrap - Part 6: Scrap consisting of two or more wrought alloys

This part of this European Standard specifies characteristics, chemical composition and metal yield of aluminium scrap (predominantly old scrap) consisting of two or more wrought aluminium alloys. EXAMPLES - Mix of used pots and pans, TV antennas, road signals, car-plates, window frames and other end-of-life aluminium objects ; - scrap from demolition of buildings.

Overview

EN 13920-6:2003 (CEN) - "Aluminium and aluminium alloys - Scrap - Part 6: Scrap consisting of two or more wrought alloys" specifies the characteristics, chemical composition and expected metal yield for predominantly old aluminium scrap made up of two or more wrought (corroyage) alloys. Typical feedstocks covered include mixes of used pots and pans, TV antennas, road signs, car license plates, window frames and scrap from building demolition.

Key topics and technical requirements

• Scope and examples: Post-consumer and end-of-life aluminium objects and demolition scrap comprising two or more wrought alloys.
• Contamination limits: Maximum 5% (mass) total of oil, grease, dust, plastics, calcareous deposits and other non‑metallic foreign material. Scrap must be free of 2xxx and 7xxx series alloy pieces and free of foreign metallic materials.
• Grades: Two grades are defined - Grade A and Grade B - with different maximum element limits. Aluminium content is calculated as the remainder after subtracting the quantified alloying elements (elements ≥ 0.010% are rounded to two decimals before calculation). Representative maximums:
  • Grade A (max values, mass %): Si 1.00; Fe 0.80; Cu 0.80; Mn 0.50; Mg 0.60; Zn 0.50; Ti 0.20; Others each 0.10.
  • Grade B (max values, mass %): Si 1.50; Fe 1.20; Cu 1.00; Mn 1.00; Mg 2.00; Zn 0.70; Ti 0.20; Others each 0.15.
• Metal yield: Determined per EN 13920-1, with a required metal yield of ≥ 88% for material conforming to this part. Deviations from the stated contamination or composition limits will typically reduce metal yield.
• Ordering and documentation: Orders should specify the EN number, scrap category and grade (A or B), gross mass, delivery period, any deviations (e.g., presence of 2xxx/7xxx), and-where meaningful-origin, piece size and surface condition.
• Testing, sampling and non‑conformities: Classification procedure, sampling, testing, treatment of non-conformities and arbitration follow EN 13920-1.

Applications and users

• Primary users: aluminium recyclers, scrap traders, secondary aluminium smelters, foundries and metal processors.
• Other stakeholders: demolition contractors, procurement and quality assurance teams, environmental compliance officers and logistics providers.
• Practical uses: specifying consignments for sale/purchase, acceptance criteria on receiving yards, process planning for remelting (estimating alloying additions and expected metal yield), quality control and contract dispute resolution.
