1、Designation:A601/A601M10(Reapproved 2015)Standard Specification forElectrolytic Manganese Metal1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A601/A601M;the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.
2、A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This specification covers several grades of electrolyticmanganese designated as follows:GradeRegularAIntermediate HydrogenBLow Hydrogen
3、C4.5%Nitrogen BearingD6%Nitrogen BearingEWeld Grade PowderF1.2 UnitsThe values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard.Thevalues stated in each system may not be exact equivalents;therefore,each system shall be used independently of the other.Combining
4、 values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.1.2.1 This specification is expressed in both inch-poundunits and in SI units(within the text,the SI units are shown inbrackets);however,unless the purchase order or contractspecifies the applicable M specification designat
