1.3 Methods for the determination of several elements not included in this standard can be found in Test Methods E30 and Test Methods E1019. 1.4 Some of the concentration ranges given in 1.1 are too broad to be covered by a single method and therefore this standard contains multiple methods for some elements. The user must select the proper method by matching the information given in the Scope and Interference sections of each method with the composition of the alloy to be analyzed. 1.5 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. In some cases, exceptions allowed in Practice E380 are also used. 1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of 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. Specific hazards statements are given in Section 5 and in special "Warning" paragraphs throughout these test methods. |
