1、Designation: D3363 05 (Reapproved 2011)2Standard Test Method forFilm Hardness by Pencil Test1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D3363; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A nu

2、mber 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.1NOTEFigure 1 was corrected editorially in August 2011.2NOTEFigure 2

3、 and Section 7 were corrected editorially in March 2012.1. Scope*1.1 This test method covers a procedure for rapid, inexpen-sive determination of the film hardness of an organic coatingon a substrate in terms of drawing leads or pencil leads ofknown hardness.1.2 This test method is similar in conten

4、t (but not techni-cally equivalent) to ISO 15184.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibil

5、ity 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. Referenced Documents2.1 Other Standards:ISO 15184 Determination of film hardness by pencil test.23. Summary of Test Method3.1 A coated pan

6、el is placed on a firm horizontal surface.The pencil is held firmly against the film at a 45 angle (pointaway from the operator) and pushed away from the operator ina 6.5-mm (14-in.) stroke. The process is started with the hardestpencil and continued down the scale of hardness to either oftwo end po

7、ints: one, the pencil that will not cut into or gougethe film (pencil hardness), or two, the pencil that will notscratch the film (scratch hardness).4. Significance and Use4.1 Pencil hardness measurements have been used by thecoatings industry for many years to determine the hardness ofclear and pig

8、mented organic coating films. This test methodhas also been used to determine the cure of these coatings,especially when forced dried using heat.4.2 This test method is especially useful in developmentalwork and in production control testing in a single laboratory. Itshould be recognized that the re

9、sults obtained may varybetween different laboratories when different pencils as well aspanels are used. Every effort should be made to standardize thehardness of the lead used and the technique followed.4.3 If this test method is used as a basis for purchaseagreement, maximum precision will be achie

10、ved if a given setof referee pencils be agreed upon between the purchaser andthe seller.5. Apparatus5.1 A set of calibrated drawing leads (preferred) or equiva-lent calibrated wood pencils meeting the following scale ofhardness:6B25B24B23B22B2B2HB2F2H22H23H24H25H26HSofter Harder(1)The difference bet

11、ween two adjacent leads shall be consid-ered one unit of hardness.5.2 Mechanical Lead Holder, for drawing leads if used.5.3 Mechanical Sharpener, draftsman-type, is helpful fortrimming wood pencils if used.5.4 Abrasive Paper, grit No. 400.6. Test Specimens and Conditions6.1 Apply the surface coating

12、 by appropriate means to asmooth rigid substrate and cure properly, or use representativepanels cut from coated stock. The panels used, the curingconditions, and the age of the coating prior to the test shall bewithin the limits agreed upon between the purchaser and theseller.6.2 The film thickness

13、of the coating shall be as specified oras agreed upon between the purchaser and the seller.6.3 Conduct the test at 23 6 2C (73.5 6 3.5F) and 50 65 % relative humidity.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D01 on Paintand Related Coatings, Materials, and Applications and is th

Procedure7.1 For wood pencils,

16、 remove approximately 5 to 6 mm (316to14 in.) of wood from the point of each pencil using adraftsman-type mechanical sharpener, being careful to leave anundisturbed, unmarked, smooth cylinder of lead. Holding thepencil holder (when using drawing leads) at an angle of 90 tothe abrasive paper, rub the

17、 lead against the paper maintainingan exact angle of 90 to the abrasive paper until a flat, smoothand circular cross section is obtained, free of chips or nicks inthe edge of the cross section. For wood pencils, see Fig. 1 foran illustration. For mechanical pencil holders with drawingleads, see Fig.

18、 2 as the illustration. The desired edge may beobtained by cementing the abrasive paper to a flat motor-drivendisk. By supporting the pencil at 90 to the rotating disk auniform flat lead end may be obtained more reproducibly.7.2 Place the coated panel on a level, firm, horizontalsurface. Starting wi

19、th the hardest lead, hold the pencil or leadholder firmly with the lead against the film at a 45 angle (pointaway from the operator) and push away from the operator.Exert sufficient uniform pressure downward and forward eitherto cut or scratch the film or to crumble the edge of the lead. Itis sugges

20、ted that the length of the stroke be 6.5 mm (14 in.).7.3 Repeat the process down the hardness scale until apencil is found that will not cut through the film to the substrate(either metal or a previous coat) for a distance of at least 3 mm(18 in.) (see 8.1.1).NOTE 1The operator must watch closely fo

21、r cutting into or scratchingthe film. Some finishes contain compounds that may tend to lubricate thefilm. Checks should be made by close visual inspection and by fingernailfeel.NOTE 2In conducting the test, if the sharp edge of the lead is slightlychipped or crumbled, the lead must be resharpened.7.

22、4 Continue the process until a pencil is found that willneither cut through nor scratch the surface of the film. Anydefacement of the film other than a cut (gouge) is considered ascratch. Record each end point (if applicable) for gouge andscratch hardness (see 8.1).NOTE 3With some films, the two end

23、 points will be identical.7.5 Make a minimum of two determinations for gougehardness (7.3) and scratch hardness (7.4) for each pencil orlead.8. Report8.1 Report the following information:8.1.1 The two end points as follows:8.1.1.1 Gouge HardnessThe hardest pencil that will leavethe film uncut for a

24、stroke length of at least 3 mm (18 in.).8.1.1.2 Scratch HardnessThe hardest pencil that will notrupture or scratch the film.8.1.2 The make and grade of lead or pencil used, and8.1.3 Any deviation from standard conditions, includingroughness in the finish.9. Precision and Bias9.1 PrecisionIn an inter

25、laboratory test of this test methodwith three different films on panels, ten laboratories andoperators, and repeated by switching leads and panels betweenlaboratories, the within-laboratory standard deviation wasfound to be 0.52 and the between-laboratory standard deviationwas found to be 0.61. Base

26、d on these standard deviations, thefollowing criteria should be used for judging the acceptabilityof results at a 95 % confidence level:9.1.1 RepeatabilityTwo results obtained by two operatorswithin a laboratory using the same pencils and panels should beconsidered suspect if they differ by more tha

27、n one pencil uniton the scale described in 5.1.9.1.2 ReproducibilityTwo results, each the mean of atleast two determinations, obtained by operators in differentlaboratories using the same pencils and panels or differentpencils with the same panels should be considered suspect ifthey differ by more t

28、han one pencil unit on the scale describedin 5.1.9.1.3 BiasSince there is no acceptable material suitablefor determining the bias for the procedure in this test methodfor measuring pencil hardness, bias cannot be determined.10.
