Significance and Use3.1 These test methods are used to determine the var

6、iousstages and rates of drying, curing, and film formation oforganic coatings for the purpose of comparing types ofcoatings or ingredient changes, or both. This is significant inthe development of organic coatings for various end uses andalso for production quality control.4. Coatings and Recommende

7、d Film Thicknesses4.1 Whenever tests are to be performed on coatings notlisted in Table 1, there should be a prior agreement between thepurchaser and seller as to the substrate, film thickness, andapplication method for testing the specific coating involved.5. Test Conditions5.1 Conduct all drying t

8、ests in a well-ventilated room orchamber, free from direct drafts, dust, products of combustion,laboratory fumes and under diffused light (see 5.4). Make allmeasurements at a temperature of 23 6 2C and 50 6 5%relative humidity with the coated panels in a horizontalposition while drying.5.2 Tests sho

9、uld be carried out at practical viscosities atwhich films can be applied to the proper film thickness withresultant good flow and leveling properties. In the absence ofany specific material specification, instructions for preparationof the film should be determined and agreed upon between thepurchas

10、er and the seller.5.3 Films to be tested should have practical thicknessescommensurate with performance characteristics expected un-der actual usage for the type under test. All testing should bedone within an area, any point of which is not less than 15 mm(12 in.) from the film edge.5.4 Light Condi

11、tionsIllumination of the films during theentire drying test period from normal laboratory or sky sources,never from direct sunlight or other sources high in nonvisibleradiant energy.6. Preparation of Test Specimens6.1 Carry out all tests as described in 6.1.1, 6.1.2 and 6.1.3,unless otherwise noted.

Apply thespecimens in duplicate at a time arranged so that examinationintervals will fall within the norm

17、al working hours of theoperator.6.1.2 Apply the materials to be tested on clean glass panelsor other specific substrate of suitable dimensions agreed uponbetween the purchaser and the seller. Ground-glass plates aremore suitable for certain types of coatings that tend to crawl,such as low-viscosity

18、drying oils. Suitable plates can beprepared by roughening the surface of polished glass bygrinding a paste of silicon carbide (grit 1-F) and water betweentwo glass plates.6.1.3 The test films preferably shall be cast with a doctorblade having a clearance sufficient to give the recommendeddry film th

19、ickness indicated in Table 1. When a suitable doctorblade is not available, or it has been agreed upon to apply thefilm in some other manner, the various conventional andautomatic methods of spray, dip, flow, and brush applicationmay be used, provided dry film thicknesses conform to therequirements

20、given in Table 1. See Practices D 823 for adescription of the spray and dip methods of application.6.1.4 Measure the dry film thickness of test films with theproper film thickness gage. This shall be a micrometer, dialcomparator, or dial indicator as described in Test MethodsD 1005. When plates of s

21、mall area are used, measurement ofdry film thickness can be made by weighing plates before andafter coating and calculating from plate area and coating solids.7. Procedure7.1 When test methods or end points other than those listedin 7.2-7.8 are used, there shall be a prior agreement betweenthe purch

22、aser and the seller.7.2 Set-To-Touch TimeTo determine set-to-touch time,lightly touch the test film with the tip of a clean finger andimmediately place the fingertip against a piece of clean, clearglass. Observe if any of the coating is transferred to the glass.For the purpose of this test, the pres

23、sure of the fingertip againstthe coating shall not be greater than that required to transfer aspot of the coating from 3 to 5 mm (18 to316 in.) in crosssection. The film is set-to-touch when it still shows a tackycondition, but none of it adheres to the finger.7.3 Dust-Free Times:7.3.1 Cotton Fiber

24、Test MethodSeparate a number ofindividual fibers from a mass of absorbent cotton with the aidof tweezers. At regular drying intervals, drop several of thecotton fibers from a height of 25 mm (1 in.) onto a markedsection of the film. The film is considered to have dried dustfree when the cotton fiber

25、s can be removed by blowing lightlyover the surface of the film.7.4 Tack-Free Times:7.4.1 Mechanical Test Method (Tack Tester3)The tacktester to be used in this method comprises essentially a base orsurface-contacting portion 25-mm (1-in.) square and a counter-balancing portion 25 by 50 mm (1 by 2 i

26、n.) in area. Bothportions are made up from a continuous metal strip 0.41 to 0.46mm (0.016 to 0.018 in.) in thickness. To prepare the apparatusfor use (see 7.4.1.1), fit the base with several thicknesses ofmasking tape and paper strips to provide a means of attachingthe aluminum foil and so adjust th

27、e angle of the 1 by 2-in.counter-balancing strip so that a weight of 5 g placed in thegeometric center of the base portion is just sufficient toovercome the unbalanced force.7.4.1.1 The tester is prepared for use by carrying out thefollowing steps in sequence:(1) Wrap the metal base with three thick

28、nesses of maskingtape, sticky side out,(2) Cover the outer layer with a good grade of paper,except for two exposed strips, equally spaced, about14 by 1 in.(6.4 by 25 mm) in area on the top of the tester, and(3) Cover the paper on the contact side of the base withone thickness of pressure-sensitive c

29、ellulose tape previouslyfixed to the metal base of the tester. The cellulose tape servestwo purposes:First, to pull the layers of masking tape firmly against thefront of the metal base, andSecond, to provide a smooth surface for the foil. Attach thealuminum foil to the base of the tester by pressing

30、 gently butfirmly a 25 by 50-mm (1 by 2-in.) piece of foil, 13 m (0.0005in.) in thickness against one of the 6.4 by 25-mm (14 by 1-in.)exposed strips of masking tape on the top surface of the base.Wrap the foil tightly and smoothly around the base, exposingthe shiny side, and finally press the outer

31、 end gently against theremaining exposed strip of masking tape. When it finallybecomes necessary to replace wrinkled or soiled aluminumfoil, the ends are easily removed from the masking tape byexerting a slow, even, upward pull sufficient to overcome thetack of the tape without tearing the foil.7.4.

33、e has been observed. The film is considered dry when it nolonger adheres to the finger and does not rub up appreciablywhen the finger is lightly rubbed across the surface.7.5.2 Lacquers (and Sealers)Touch the film lightly atvarying intervals of time. The film is considered dry when nopronounced mark

The film isconsidered dry-hard when any mark left by the thumb iscompletely removed by the polishing operation.7.7 Dry-Through (or Dry-To-Handle) Time:7.7.1 Place the test

36、panel in a horizontal position at a heightsuch that when the thumb is placed on the film, the arm of the3The standard tack tester is fully described in the U.S. Patent 2,406,989, Sept. 3,1946.D1640032operator is in a vertical line from the wrist to the shoulder. Beardown on the film with the thumb,

37、exerting the maximumpressure of the arm, at the same time turning the thumb throughan angle of 90 in the plane of the film. The film is considereddry-through or dry-to-handle when there is no loosening,detachment, wrinkling, or other evidence of distortion of thefilm.7.8 Dry-To-Recoat:7.8.1 A film i

38、s considered dry for recoating when a secondcoat or specified topcoat can be applied without the develop-ment of any film irregularities such as lifting or loss ofadhesion of the first coat, and the dry time of the second coatdoes not exceed the maximum specified (if any) for the firstcoat.8. Freque

39、ncy of Testing8.1 It is suggested that test intervals be set at periods ofapproximately 10 % of the total test time. If frequency variesconsiderably from the 10 % interval or such time interval isimpractical, the intervals used shall be reported.9. Report9.1 Reports of tests shall include all applic

40、able conditionsthat deviated from the standards as outlined or special condi-tions or tests used and the results of the test.10. Precision and Bias10.1 Because of the subjective nature of the drying timetests, the agreement to be expected between laboratoriesdepends upon their understanding of the t

41、erms used, and isdifficult to establish with certainty. Within any laboratory, theagreement depends upon the material being tested, somecoatings being much sharper in their end point than others, butduplicate determinations should agree within 10 % of the timeof drying.410.2 BiasThese test methods h

42、ave no bias because thevalue for dry times are defined only in terms of these testmethods.11.
