Weigh the specimens and then remove the film either cathodically or by the use of a solvent. Re-weigh and by difference calculate the average coating
37、weight per square inch. Reduce the enamel for roller coat application in accordance with the manufacturers recommendation and apply the enamel to three size coated panels of known coating weight. Bake, then follow the procedure outlined above to determine the coating weight of the combined system (s
38、ize plus gloss enamel). By difference determine the weight of the enamel (weight of the system coated panel minus the weight of the stripped panel minus the weight of the size coat equals the weight of the gloss enamel).

Apply a size coat conforming to MIL-P-19602 (see 6.6) to a dry film weight of 1 to 3 milligrams per square inch to ten (1 O) 4- by 8-inch tin panels conforming t
40、o QQ-T-425 grade 4, class 25 with bright finish. Bake according to the manufacturers recommended schedule. Using eight of the sized panels apply the roller coating enamel to a dry film weight of 6 to 12 milligrams per square inch (see 4.4.7). Bake according to the manufacturers recommendation and us
41、e the panels where applicable in the subsequent tests. 4.4.9 Blocking, Cut six 2- by 2-inch specimens from panels prepared as in 4.4.8. Stack the specimens so that the coated surface of the one below is in contact with the uncoated surface of the one directly above. Place the stacked specimens in an
42、 oven for 24 hours at 120“ f 2“ F. with a weight sufficient to exert 10 Ib per square inch resting on them. Cool to room temperature and pry apart using the pointed end of a needle. Observe for cornplaince with 3.4.5. 4.4.10 Flexibiiity test. Determine flexibility as in method 6621 of FED-STD-141 on
43、 2- by 4-inch sections cut from each of two panels prepared as in 4.4.8. After baking the panels according to the manufacturers recommendation, bake for an additional 48 hours at 220“ f 4“ F. Condition at room temperature for one hour and bend over a 1/8-inch mandrel. Examine for compliance with 3.4
44、.6. 4.4.1 1 Knife test. Perform the knife test as in method 6304 of FED-STD-141 on the flat portion of the panels from the flexibility test. Check for compliance with 3.4.7. 4.4.12 Accelerated weathering. Perform the test on 3- by 6-inch panels cut from two panels prepared as in 4.4.8. After baking
45、as recommended air dry the panels for 24 hours. Expose for 168 hours to accelerated weathering as in method 6152 of FED-STD-141 using a twin arc apparatus. Examine the exposed panels for chalking by rubbing with a piece of velvet or cheesecloth wrapped around the finger. The rubbing shall be done un
46、der moderate pressure by drawing the cloth across the width of the panel in two different locations. Measure the directional reflectance (method 6121) on an unrubbed area of the exposed panel and determine the amount of color change, expressed as lightness index difference (AL), using method 6122 of
47、 FED-STD-141. Check for compliance with 3.4.8. 4.4.13 Salt spray resistance. Prepare two panels as in 4.4.8. Make an X score across the center of the panels and bend through 180“ on a conical mandrel. Expose the panels to salt spray for 168 hours as in method 6061 of FED-STD-141. Face the bend towar
48、d the source of the salt fog with the sharp end facing downward. Immediately upon removal wash the panels gently in running water until free from any visible salt deposits and examine for compliance with 3.4.9. 8 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license fr
