ASTM B152 Standard Specification for Copper Sheet, Strip, Plate, and Rolled Bar

ASTM B152 covers specifications for a range of copper compositions, e.g., sheets, strips, plates, rolled bars, and tempers. Chemical composition, temper classifications, and ordering details of various forms of copper and tempers are articulated in the standard. ASTM B152 is used in USDOE-NE standards and offers recommendations for choosing appropriate copper materials for particular uses. Chemical and mechanical testing is done to ensure the caliber of the finished copper goods. ASTM B152 enables ideal material selection and utilization.

Introduction to ASTM B152

ASTM B152 includes specifications for copper sheet, strip, plate, and rolling bar standards by delineating a range of compositions and tempers. The process covers ordering requirements, classifies tempers, and specifies the chemical composition of copper. MaTestLab is one of the best testing service providers, with the best network of testing laboratories in the USA to carry out ASTM B152 tests for our clients. ASTM B152 has applications in many sectors, such as manufacturing, electronics, transportation, and construction. It guarantees the reliability and conductivity of copper components used in electronic circuits. ASTM B152 promotes quality assurance and enables the ideal choice of materials used in many industrial areas.

Test Method of ASTM B152

The method proceeds as follows:

Apparatus SetupTension testing machines, spectrometers and metallographic equipment
Major StepsEstablishing the chemical requirements, then the classification of copper products into various tempers, followed by quality assurance inspection and testing.

ASTM B152 Specimens

Specimen DetailsSamples of copper strips, sheets, plates or rolled bars are primed as per specified dimensions and temper classifications.
Specimen PreparationThe sample is cut from copper strips or plates and then cleaned and polished to remove any surface impurities.
Specimen DimensionsThe dimensions of the specimen may vary as per the specimen type and the method employed.

ASTM B152 Test Results

Results from ASTM B152 testing provide information about the dimensional features, mechanical attributes, and chemical composition of various copper products. It helps to choose the ideal material with optimal conductivity, structural integrity, malleability, and resistance to corrosion.

Tests Related to ASTM B152

ASTM B152 is similar to the specification ASTM B193 which evaluates copper materials for their electrical resistivity using applied voltage and known dimensions.
