Niobium by the Gravimetric Test Method [40 % to 75 %]	22 – 23

Tantalum by the Gravimetric Test Method [1 % to 7 %]	24 – 25

Tantalum by the Spectrophotometric Test Method [0.25 % to 1 %]	26 – 30

1.3Units—The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

1.4This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to consult and establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. Specific hazard statements are given in Section 6, and specific warning statements in 11.1.

1.5This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
