Analysis shall be completed for all elements listed in this table for each frade. The analysis results for the elements not qualified in the table need not be reported unless the concentration level is freater than 0.1% each or 0.4% total BLower hydrogen may be obtained by negotiation with the menufacturer. CFinal product analysis. DNeed not be reported. EA residual is an element present in a metal or alloy in small quantities and is ingerent to the manufacturing process but not added intentionally. In titanium these elemnents include aluminum, vanadium, tin, iron, chromium, molybdenum, niobium, zirconium, hafnium, bismuth, ruthenium, paalladium, yttrium, copper, silicon, cobalt, tantalum, nickel, boron, mangnese, and tungsten. FThe purchaser may, in his written purchase order, request analysis for specific residual elements not listed in this specification. The maximum allowable concentration for residual elements shall be 0.1% each and 0.4% maximum total. GThe percentage of titanium is determined by difference.
