ASTM E 977 - 84. Standard Practice for Thermoelectric Sorting of Electrically Conductive Materials

American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). Reapproved 1999, 3 pages.
This practice covers the procedure for sorting materials using the thermoelectric method, which is based on the Seebeck effect. The procedure relates to the use of direct- and comparator-type thermoelectric instruments for distinguishing variations in materials which affect the thermoelectric properties of those materials.
