39、 coating which is present as free tin and that part which ispresent in the alloyed form.11. Summary of Test Method11.1 In this test method, the tin is stripped from a sample oftin-plate anodically at constant current in an electrolyte of thehydrochloric acid. The potential difference developed betwe

40、enthe sample and a reference electrode is plotted against time ona strip chart recorder or an electric digital readout. The timerequired for stripping the free tin and alloyed tin, respectively,are read from the resulting chart (see Fig. 1) or a digitalreadout. Since the stripping current has been p

41、reset, the free-tinand alloy-tin coating weights are calculated by employingFaradays law of electrolysis.12.

The potential difference developed between the sampleand a glass calomel reference electrode is plotted against timeon a strip chart recorder. The time

45、 required for stripping thefree tin and alloy tin, respectively are read from the resultingchart (see Fig. 1) or on an electronic digital readout. Since thestripping current is constant and preset, the free tin and alloytin coating weights are calculated by employing Faradays lawof electrolysis.14.2

46、 Significance and Use:14.2.1 The amount of tin coating is directly associated withthe economics of producing tinplate and the performance of thecontainer or part for which such plate is used. Therefore, thetest method was developed for accuracy and as a control. Theamount of tin combined in the allo

47、y layer is also essential asthe continuity and amount plays an important part in itsfunctional properties. This test method is so designed that thetin coating is determined on only one side of the specimen ata time. This is useful when determining tin coatings ondifferential tinplate.14.3 Apparatus:
