Scope of standard

This specification covers the requirements for a coating of
cadmium mechanically deposited on metal products. The coating is
provided in various thicknesses up to and including 12 μm.

Mechanical deposition greatly reduces the risk of hydrogen
embrittlement and is suitable for coating bores and recesses in
many parts that cannot be conveniently electroplated (see Appendix
X3).

Cadmium coatings are usually applied to provide engineering
properties and corrosion resistance. The performance of a cadmium
coating depends largely on its thickness and the kind of
environment to which it is exposed. Without proof of satisfactory
correlation, accelerated tests such as the salt spray (fog) test
cannot be relied upon to predict performance in other environments,
nor will these serve as comparative measures of the corrosion
resistance afforded by coatings of different metals. Thus, although
there is a marked superiority of cadmium coatings over zinc
coatings of equal thickness in the salt spray test, this is often
not the case under conditions of use, so that further testing in
the service environment should be conducted.

This 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 establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use.
For specific precautionary
statements, see 1.5 and 1.6.

Warning-Cadmium is toxic and must not be used
in a coating for articles that can come into contact with food or
beverages, or for dental or other equipment that can be inserted
into the mouth. Consult appropriate agencies for regulations in
this connection.

Warning-Because of the toxicity of cadmium
vapors and cadmium oxide fumes, cadmium-coated articles must not be
used at temperatures of 320°C and above. They must not be welded,
spot-welded, soldered, or otherwise strongly heated without
adequate ventilation that will efficiently remove all toxic
fumes.
