Rejection Criteria

Conditions and thresholds that trigger immediate rejection or downgrading.

Manganese content insufficient
Threshold

Manganese <10% confirmed OR clearly below specification range

Action

FULL REJECTION or severe reclassification to industrial bronze

Reason
  • Critical Failure: Manganese Is Defining Specification Element
  • Material Not Manganese Bronze Without Sufficient Manganese
  • Identity Failure Extreme
  • Marine-Grade Status Lost
Test Method
  • Icp-Aes Manganese Verification
  • Composition Analysis
Severity

ABSOLUTE CRITICAL - DEFINING ELEMENT FAILURE - MATERIAL IDENTITY LOST

Consequence:
  • Full Rejection Or Catastrophic Downgrading
  • Unsuitable For Marine Specialty Market
  • Alternative Industrial Bronze Market (-£500-800/Mt Penalty)
Copper content out of range
Threshold

Copper <55% OR >65% confirmed

Action

Full rejection or reclassification

Reason
  • Material Not Consistent With Manganese Bronze Specification
  • Alloy Balance Compromised
Test Method
  • Xrf Copper Verification
  • Composition Analysis
Severity

CRITICAL - SPECIFICATION FAILURE

Consequence:
  • Full Rejection Or Reclassification To Industrial Bronze
  • Unsuitable For Marine Specialty
Zinc content inconsistent
Threshold

Zinc <15% OR >25% confirmed

Action

Full rejection or reclassification

Reason
  • Alloy Composition Imbalance
  • Marine-Grade Specification Lost
Test Method
  • Xrf Zinc Verification
  • Composition Analysis
Severity

CRITICAL - SPECIFICATION FAILURE

Consequence:
  • Full Rejection Or Reclassification
  • Unsuitable For Premium Marine Market
Lead contamination excessive
Threshold

Lead >1.0% confirmed; exceeds strict marine limit

Action
  • Full Rejection
  • Marine Seawater Service Hazard
Reason
  • Marine Violation Extreme: Lead >1.0% Violates Strict Seawater Specification
  • Corrosion/Safety Hazard
  • Unsuitable For Naval/Marine Applications
Test Method
  • Xrf/Icp-Aes Lead Verification
  • Marine Specification Compliance
Severity

ABSOLUTE CRITICAL - MARINE SPECIFICATION VIOLATION EXTREME

Consequence:
  • Full Rejection
  • Material Unsuitable For Marine Specialty Market
  • Environmental/Seawater Hazard Concern
  • Significant Downgrading
Ferrous contamination excessive
Threshold

Iron >1.5% OR visible steel mixed in

Action

Full rejection or magnetic separation required

Reason
  • Ferrous Mixing Violates Marine Bronze Specification
  • Corrosion Concern Marine Environment
Test Method
  • Xrf Iron Verification
  • Magnetic Separation Test
Severity

CRITICAL - MARINE SPECIFICATION VIOLATION

Consequence:
  • Full Rejection Or Mandatory Separation
  • Unsuitable For Premium Marine Market
Stainless steel or aluminum contamination
Threshold

>1% detected

Action

Full rejection

Reason
  • Wrong Material
  • Contamination Violates Manganese Bronze Purity
  • Marine-Grade Failure Extreme
Test Method

Reason
  • Critical Failure: Specialty Status Lost
  • Composition Alone Insufficient Without Marine Origin Authentication Mandatory
Test Method

XRF composition + visual seawater corrosion evidence assessment

Severity

CRITICAL - MARINE-GRADE AUTHENTICATION FAILURE - SPECIALTY STATUS LOST

Consequence:
  • Reclassification To Industrial Bronze (-£500-800/Mt Penalty)
  • Unsuitable For Premium Marine Specialty Market
Material not manganese bronze
Threshold
