ASTM WK39664

(What is a Work Item? / How to Input to a Work Item)

Work Item: ASTM WK39664 - Revision of E415 - 08 Standard Test Method for Atomic Emission Vacuum Spectrometric Analysis of Carbon and Low-Alloy Steel


Active Standard: E415 - 08

Developed by Subcommittee: E01.01 | Committee E01 Home | Contact Staff Manager



1. Rationale

Current prescription of technology implemented in E415 is narrow such that industry users are having difficulty retaining or obtaining equipment that satisfies the specific technologies described in E415. This revision will expand the scope, apparatus section, excitation and exposure sections, and any pertinent sections in order to allow the use of Spark-AES instruments that meet or exceed the precision and bias statements of the current E415.
