Historical Standard: ASTM B860-09ae1 Standard Specification for Zinc Master Alloys for Use in Hot Dip Galvanizing
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM B860
1. Scope
1.1 This specification covers zinc master alloys which are used in hot dip galvanizing for the purpose of adjusting the concentration of certain alloying elements in the molten zinc bath. Table 1 covers the chemical composition of these materials which include six master alloys of zinc-aluminum (brightener) and one master alloy of zinc-antimony.
