Specification for Aluminum Scrap 1. Scope This specification defines the quality and requirements for aluminum scrap intended for recycling and manufacturing. It ensures consistency, quality, and suitability for various applications. 2. Material Requirements 2.1. Composition Aluminum Content: Minimum 90% by weight. Contaminants: Maximum 2% by weight of non-aluminum metals (e.g., steel, copper). Maximum 1% by weight of non-metallic materials (e.g., plastic, rubber). Moisture content should not exceed 2% by weight. 2.2. Form and Condition Types: Can include profiles, sheets, turnings, wire, and castings. Size: Must be manageable for handling and processing, typically not exceeding 1 meter in any dimension. Cleanliness: Free from excessive oil, grease, and other foreign substances. 3. Packaging and Labeling Packaging: Scrap should be securely packaged or bundled to prevent scattering and contamination during transport. Packaging materials should not contaminate the scrap. Labeling: Each package should be clearly labeled with: Supplier name and address. Net weight. Scrap grade and type. 4. Inspection and Testing Visual Inspection: Performed to check for visible contaminants, appropriate size, and cleanliness. Chemical Analysis: Periodic testing to verify aluminum content and contaminant levels. Moisture Test: Conducted to ensure moisture content compliance. 5. Documentation Certificate of Analysis (CoA): Provided with each shipment, detailing the chemical composition and confirming compliance with this specification. Bill of Lading: Including details of the shipment, weight, and scrap grade. 6. Compliance and Rejection Compliance: All supplied scrap must meet the requirements outlined in this specification. Rejection: Material not meeting these requirements will be subject to rejection and return at the supplier's expense. 7. Safety and Handling Handling: Appropriate safety measures should be taken to prevent injury or contamination during handling and transportation. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Workers must use suitable PPE, including gloves and eye protection. 8. Environmental and Regulatory Considerations Compliance: Must comply with all relevant local, national, and international regulations regarding waste and recycling materials. Environmental Impact: Suppliers are encouraged to follow environmentally friendly practices in the collection and processing of aluminum scrap.

Specification Parameter Details Material Name Copper Wire Scrap Purity Minimum 99.9% Appearance Bright, shiny, clean, free from tarnish and other impurities Form Copper wire, stripped of insulation, no mixed or dirty wires Diameter Varies, typically between 0.5mm to 20mm Length Random lengths Weight Packed in bales or bundles, typically 100kg to 1000kg per bundle Origin Various sources (e.g., industrial waste, electrical wires) Insulation No insulation (bare wire) Non-metallic content Less than 0.5% Oxidation Negligible, if any Radioactive material None Moisture content Maximum 0.3% Packaging Bales or bundles, secured with metal straps or wire Weight Tolerance �±2% Shipping Containers or bulk, depending on order size and buyer's requirements Certification Certificate of Analysis (CoA) available upon request Standards Compliance Complies with International Copper Study Group (ICSG) standards Usage Recycling, manufacturing of new copper products, electrical applications

2. Specifications: Material: Copper wire with various degrees of insulation or bare copper. Types: Bare Bright Copper Wire: Clean, uncoated, unalloyed copper wire that is free of any impurities. Insulated Copper Wire: Copper wire with various types of insulation, including PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride), Teflon, rubber, etc. Copper Content: Generally ranges from 95% to 99.9% pure copper, depending on the grade. Gauge/Thickness: Typically ranges from very thin wires (e.g., 18 AWG) to thicker cables (e.g., 2/0 AWG or higher). Condition: Clean: Free from any contaminants or corrosion, suitable for direct recycling. Tinned: Copper wire coated with a thin layer of tin to enhance solderability. Burnt: Copper wire that has undergone burning or oxidation, affecting its physical properties and purity. Packaging: Usually bundled in coils, spools, or loose in containers depending on quantity and logistics requirements. Application: Used as a raw material in the production of new copper products such as electrical wiring, motors, transformers, and various electronic components. Environmental Considerations: Recycling scrap copper wire reduces the need for mining new copper ore, which helps conserve natural resources and reduces energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions associated with copper production. 3. Quality Standards: Compliance with local and international standards for metal recycling and copper content purity. Adherence to environmental regulations regarding the handling and disposal of scrap materials. Quality control measures to ensure the absence of hazardous materials and proper sorting for optimal recycling efficiency.
