FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Fourth Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of lndian Standards, after the draft finalized by the
Copper and Copper Alleys Sectional Committee had been approved by the Metallurgical Engineering Division Council.
The second revision oftbis standard was published in 1967, which was subsequently revised in 1980. The Committee
responsible for the formulation of this standard felt th:it different types of copper included in tl]e earlier version of the
standard should be reviewed and merged in line with International/Overseas Standards. In the formulation of this
standard, consideration has been given to the manut%cturing and trade practices followed in the country. While
revising IS 191 it was decided to merge all the following ten parts:
Part I Claw+itlcation of copper
Part 1I Dimensions and masses of copper refinery shapes
Partll[ Methods of sampling of copper refiner-y shapes for chemical analysis
Part IV Cathode copper
Part V Electrolytic tough pitch copper (E”l’P)
Part VI Fire retined high conductivity copper (FRHC)
Part Vi I Fire refined tough pitch copper -— wrought products and alloys (FRrP 1 and FRTP 2)
PartVIII Phosphorized copper (DHP)
Part 1X Arsenical tough pitch copper (ATP)
Part X Phosphorus deoxidized arsenical copper (DPA)

an atmosphere of hydrogen for 30 min at 800 to 875°C and
subsequently cooled in the container itself (out of contact
with air), the test pieces shall be subjected to a close bend
test as described in 10.1.1 to 10.1.3.
10.1.1 The test piece AB is bent by steadily applied

11 SAMPLINGANl) cwTERIA FOR CONFORMITY
11.1 Lot
11.1.1 For the determination of the copper content,
consignments up to a total mass of about 300 t should be
considered as a single lot, provided that the whole of the
consignment is of the same charge and consists of uniform
shapes. Consignments exceeding 300 tin total mass should
be divided into lots of approximately equal size.
11.1.2 If a consignment consists of several charges andJ
or different shapes, the consignment should be divided
into lots according to charges and shapes. The size of the

B-1.O The following values fixed by the International
Electrotechnical Commission for ‘Standard Annealed
Copper’ have been taken as standard values for annealed
high-conductivity copper [that is International Annealed
Copper Standard (lACS)].
B-1.l At a temperature of 20”C the volume resistivity of
standard annealed copper is 1/58 (or 0.017 24 ......) ohm
tnm21m.
B-1.2 At a temperature of 20”C the density of standard
annealed copper is 8.89 g/cm3.
B-1.3 At a temperature of 20”C the coet%cient of linear
expansion of standard annealed copper is 0.0000 171°C.
NOTE — The above value for the coefficient of linear expansion
may be applied to annealed copper over a temperature range of
o to 150”C.
B-1.4 At a temperature of 20”C the coetlicient of variation
of resistance with temperature of standard annealed copper

wire bar/cake/ingot/billets may be inspected for tleedom

between the purchaser and the manufacturer.
C-2 CHEMICAL COMPOSITION
C-2. 1 Sampling
For sampling, take three pieces as gross samples from
each of the lots (charges, shapes) according to 11.1 unless
otherwise agreed to between the interested parties.
C-2.2 Remove surface contamination, if any, from the
three pieces, and also remove any surface oxide layer from
those areas where samples are to be taken. Drill holes
completely through each piece, or if the pieces are too
thick, drill holes from two opposite sides to the centre. Do
not use lubricants or similar substances, The drill should
be of cemented carbide or other suitable hard metal (such
as bonded tungsten carbide drill or carbide tipped drill)
and should not contain substantial quantities of iron. The
drill should be 10 to 15 mm in diameter and be designed to
produce drillings as small and short as possible. The
drilling should have a metallic luster and should be free of
oxidation. Do not force the drill to such an extent as to
cause oxidation of the chips. [f oxidized chips are obtained,
reject all the chips from that hole and drill another hole
adjacent to the original to provide an unoxidized sample.
C-2.3 Use a uniform hole pattern over the three pieces of
the gross sample taken from each lot. In principle,
distribute the holes in such a way that at one hole is drilled
within each 25 cm2of the surface area. Mix thoroughly the
drillings obtained in this way.
C-2.4 If less than 2 kg (approximate value) of drillings are
obtained per lot, increase the number of holes by whole
multiples of the original number of holes. If, on the other
hand, more than 2 kg (approximate value) ofdrillings are
obtained per lot, reduce them to about 2 kg by quartering.
C-2.5 Divide the 2 kg sample into four parts for analysis
of about 500 g each, place each in a bottle, label, and seal.
Send one sample to each of the interested, parties and
retain one as a referee sample and another as a reserve
sample, or distribute them according to the arrangements
made between the interested parties.
C-3 ELECTRICAL PROPERTIES
C-3.1 Sampling
Three test pieces shall be made from each lot for testing of
electrical properties. As agreed to between the purchaser
and the manufacturer the test pieces may be made in the
presence of purchaser or his representative.
C-3.2 Criteria for Conformity
If the electrical properties are met by the first test piece,
the lot shall be accepted. If the first test piece fails to
conform to the specified requirements, the two remaining
test pieces shall be tested; and if either of them fails to
meet the specified requirements, the whole lot shall be
rejected.
C-4 HYDROGEN EMBRITTLEMENT TEST
C-4.1 Three test pieces in each lot shall be subjected to
hydrogen embrittlement test for detection of casting
defects.
C-4.2 Criteria for Conformity
If any of the test piece selected (see C-4,1) for the hydrogen
embrittlement test fails, a tirther two test pieces ftom the
same lot shall be selected and tested. If any one of them
fails, the whole lot shall be rejected,
