Historical Standard: ASTM B734-97(2003)e1 Standard Specification for Electrodeposited Copper for Engineering Uses
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM B734
1. Scope
1.1 This specification covers requirements for electrodeposited coatings of copper used for engineering purposes. Examples include surface hardening, heat treatment stop-off, as an underplate for other engineering coatings, for electromagnetic interferences (EMI) shielding in electronic circuitry, and in certain joining operations.
1.2 This specification is not intended for electrodeposited copper when used as a decorative finish, or as an undercoat for other decorative finishes.
1.3 This specification is not intended for electrodeposited copper when used for electroforming.
