1、Designation: D2372 85 (Reapproved 2010)Standard Practice forSeparation of Vehicle From Solvent-Reducible Paints1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D2372; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of
2、last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers the procedure fo
3、r the separation ofthe vehicle from the pigment in solvent-reducible paint.1.2 In the development of the practice the following mate-rials were tested: white soya and white fish oil isophthalicalkyd semi-gloss enamels, white linseed oil paint, white soyaand white linseed o-phthalic alkyd enamels. It
4、 is considered tobe applicable to similar materials.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsib
5、ility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

6、tion of the PigmentContent of Solvent-Reducible Paints by High-Speed Cen-trifuging3. Significance and Use3.1 Separation of the vehicle from the pigment in solvent-reducible paints is required in order to characterize paintvehicles by chemical, spectroscopic, or chromatographic tech-niques. Character
7、ization of vehicles is important since theyplay a major role in the performance of coatings.4. Apparatus4.1 Centrifuge, high-speed, capable of developing in excessof 10 000 g.NOTE 1Calculate the gravity developed by the centrifuge as follows:g 5 1.118 3 102 63 r 3 n2(1)where:r = rotating radius, mm,
8、 andn = rotating speed, r/min.5. ProcedureNOTE 2If the percent of pigment is desired, see Test Method D2371and Test Method D2698.5.1 Mix the sample until it is homogeneous, preferably on amechanical shaker.5.2 Centrifuge about 20 mL of the whole paint on ahigh-speed centrifuge in excess of 10 000 g
9、(Note 1) for 30min or until separation is completed. If difficulty is encoun-tered, add 10 mL of a suitable solvent (Note 3). Mix with thevehicle layer in the centrifuge tube and centrifuge as before.Pour off the supernatant liquid into a bottle and stopper undernitrogen for further use.NOTE 3If qua
10、ntitative work must be done on the vehicle, the weightof the paint specimen and of the added solvent must be known.6.
