15、tates.6. Methods of Preparation6.1 DegreasingPrior to abrasive blast cleaning, the sur-face shall be degreased using one of the methods listed belowfrom SSPC-SP1.6.1.1 Solvent CleaningImmerse the panel in a cleaningsolution or rub the surface with a clean lint-free cloth wettedwith an appropriate so
16、lvent. If excessive oil or grease ispresent, power brush the surface vigorously and re-rinse orwipe.6.1.2 Alkaline or Detergent CleaningAqueous alkalinecleaners are available from a number of sources as proprietarycompounds or processes. Clean the panels with an alkalinesolution or cleaner applied b
17、y spray or immersion. Brush orwipe in accordance with the recommendations of the cleanermanufacturer. One or more steps of rinsing with water will berequired after this cleaning procedure. To prevent rust forma-tion, force dry the panel surfaces immediately after rinsing.6.2 Selecting the Degree of
18、Abrasive Blast CleaningTheuser shall specify one of the following degrees of cleaning asdefined below.6.2.1 SSPC-SP5/NACE No. 1, “White Metal Blast”Awhite metal blast cleaned surface, when viewed withoutmagnification, shall be free of all visible oil, grease, dust, dirt,mill scale, rust, coating, ox
19、ides, corrosion products, and otherforeign matter.6.2.2 SSPC-SP10/NACE No. 2, “Near-White MetalBlast”A Near-white blast cleaned surface, when viewedwithout magnification, shall be free of all visible oil, grease,dust, dirt, mill scale, rust, coating, oxides, corrosion products,and other foreign matt
20、er, except for staining. Staining shall belimited to no more than 5 percent of each unit area of surfaceand may consist of light shadows, slight streaks, or minordiscolorations caused by stains of rust, stains of mill scale, orstains of previously applied coating. A unit area is considered9 square i
21、nches.6.2.3 Default Degree of CleaningIf no degree of cleaningis specified, the panels shall be solvent cleaned as described in6.1.1, then abrasive blast cleaned to “White Metal” as de-scribed in 6.2.1.6.3 Selecting the Surface Profile (anchor pattern) DepthThe specifier shall select a surface profi
22、le range of fine,medium or coarse as defined below, or specify an alternativerange.6.3.1 Fine: 1.0 to 2.5 mils (25-63 m).6.3.2 Medium: 1.5 to 3.5 mils (38-89 m).6.3.3 Coarse: 3.0 to 5.0 mils (75-125 m).6.3.4 Alternative Range: The range between the minimumand maximum shall be at least 1.0 mil (25 m)
23、.6.3.5 Default Surface Profile Range: If no surface profilerange is specified, the range shall be Medium.6.4 Selecting the Abrasive TypeThe specifier shall selectthe abrasive type as defined below, or specify an alternativeabrasive. The abrasive size shall be determined by the specifiedsurface profi
24、le range selected in 6.3. The actual size(s) usedshall be reported. Mineral and slag abrasives shall meet thequalification requirements of SSPC-AB1; Steel abrasives shallmeet the qualification requirements of SSPC-AB2 (if recycled)and SSPC-AB3. All abrasives shall be tested for oil contami-nation pr

26、f no abrasive type is specified,the abrasive used shall be steel grit.6.5 Abrasive Blast Cleaning OperationThe operator shallblast clean the panels using an interior-located blast cabinet ora blast room. The blast nozzle air pressure shall be maintainedat 90 to 100 psi, as measured using a hypodermi
27、c needlepressure gage. The blast system shall be equipped withcompressed air moisture and oil extractors. Air dryers orcoolers can be used in lieu of moisture traps. The compressedair used to pressurize the system and to propel the abrasivethrough the blast hose and nozzle shall be verified for clea
28、n-liness before each use in accordance with Test Method D4285.The blast nozzle angle (to the panel surface) shall be main-tained at approximately 75 to 80, and the blast nozzle shall bepositioned 6 to 12 in. from the panel surface. Abrasive blastcleaning shall be performed using an overlapping abras
29、ivepattern to prevent streaking and to generate a uniform appear-ance. Immediately after abrasive blast cleaning is performed,the residual surface dust shall be removed by blow down orvacuuming. If blow down is selected, the cleanliness of thecompressed air shall be verified per Test Method D4285. T
30、estpanels shall not be handled with unprotected hands. Test panelsshall be handled by the edges using lint-free gloves.6.6 Verification of Surface Cleanliness and Surface ProfileDepth:6.6.1 Surface CleanlinessThe prepared panel surfacesshall be evaluated for conformity to the specified degree ofclea
31、ning using photograph A SP10, A SP5, B SP10, or B SP5in SSPC-VIS 1 (based on the surface condition in 5.3 and thelevel of surface cleanliness in 6.2). Surfaces that do notconform to the specified degree of cleaning shall be re-blastcleaned. All panel surfaces shall be visibly free of abrasiveblast c
32、leaning dust (see Note 1).6.6.2 Surface Profile DepthThe prepared panel surfacesshall be evaluated for conformity to the specified surfaceprofile depth using replica tape in accordance with Method Cof Test Methods D4417. A minimum of three measurements onthe first panel and one additional measuremen
33、t on each 10thpanel prepared in the same batch shall be obtained. Morefrequent/additional measurements can be obtained, as agreedupon between the purchaser and seller. If any surface profiledepth measurement is outside of the range designated in 6.3,the panel shall not be used.NOTE 1Upon agreement b
34、etween purchaser and seller, ISO 8502-3,Part 3: Assessment of Dust on Steel Surfaces Prepared for Painting(pressure-sensitive tape method) can be employed to test preparedsurfaces for the presence of dust.D7055 0927. Protection after Surface Preparation7.1 To prevent rusting of the prepared surfaces
35、, panels thatare not to be used immediately after preparation shall bewrapped in a paper impregnated with dicyclohexylammoniumnitrite, or an equivalent volatile corrosion inhibitor (VCI), andsealed inside a plastic bag or envelope. Alternatively, preparedpanels may be stored in an oven maintained at
36、 approximately38C (100F), with or without the use of paper treated withVCI, or stored in clean solvent.7.2 Prepared steel panels used after prolonged storage inVCI paper may have a residue of VCI that may affect theoutcome of certain coating performance tests. The VCI residuecan generally be removed
37、 by wiping the affected panel sur-face(s) several times with a clean, lint-free cloth wetted withwarm distilled water. It is important to dry the panel surfacesthoroughly immediately after wiping to prevent flash rust. Forcritical tests, the operator can verify the presence and effect ofVCI residue
38、by testing a representative coating on both a panelwiped with water and on a panel coated without any wiping.8. Report8.1 The report supplied with the prepared steel panels shallinclude the following, as a minimum:8.1.1 The dimensions of the test specimens, includinglength, width and thickness,8.1.2
