Scope1.1 This test method describes a procedure for determiningthe flexibility and adhesion of organic coatings (paints) onmetallic substrates that are de

Terminology2.1 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:2.1.1 T-bend, na description of the severity of a bend interms of the gauge or thickness (t) of the sheet to which thecoating has b

6、een applied; as used in this test method, theT-bend rating is the minimum number of thicknesses of metalaround which the coated sheet is bent (Fig. 1), or if bent arounda die, the number of thicknesses of metal equivalent to thediameter of the die to achieve no fracture or removal of thecoating.3. S

7、ummary of Test Method3.1 Prepainted panels are bent 180 around progressivelymore thicknesses of metal or larger diameter dies, the end pointbeing when failures no longer occur. The panels may beexamined with or without low magnification (5 to 103) aftereach bend in order to determine if the coating

8、fractured(cracked). If loss of adhesion or pickoff is to be determined,this examination shall occur after performing a tape pull-offtest.4. Significance and Use4.1 Organic coatings on precoated sheet are subjected tostresses when fabricated into products by roll forming, brakebending, or other defor

9、mation processes. These stresses canexceed the flexibility or adhesive strength of the coating,resulting in fracture of the coating which exposes the substrate,or in the loss of adhesion of the coating to the substrate. Thistest is a means of evaluating the ability of a coating system towithstand th

13、d upon between thesupplier and the user.5. Apparatus5.1 A means of holding one end of the specimen rigidlywhile making the bend is needed. Damage to the coating whilemaking the bend must be avoided. Various bending tools suchas a vise with smooth jaws or with smooth inserts, a bendforming tool (Fig.

14、 2), a brake press (Fig. 3) or a combination oftools have been found to be satisfactory.5.2 If the metal is not bent around itself as in Fig. 1, a seriesof bending dies with smoothly rounded ends may be used asguides around which the specimen is bent (Fig. 4).5.3 Bend Forming Tool.5.3.1 A manual or

15、automated operation forming tool ca-pable of facilitating the T-bending of a sample may be used.Anarbor press with an appropriate fixed V-shaped die and move-able wedge has been found to be satisfactory for this purpose.5.4 Magnifier.5.4.1 A magnifier capable of 5 to 103 magnification forexamining t

Procedure6.1 Bending the Coated Specimen Around Itself:6.1.1 The coated specimen shall be at least 2 in. (50 mm)across the bend direction, by a length suffic

17、ient to make therequired number of bends. A 2 by 6-in. (50 by 150-mm) size isconvenient. The specimen shall be held at 75 6 10F (24 65.5C) temperature, or as agreed upon between purchaser andseller. The bend direction will be longitudinal or in the samedirection with respect to the rolling or flow d

18、irection of thesheet, or as agreed upon between purchaser and seller.NOTE 1A triangle-shaped specimen (Fig. 5) has been found conve-nient for making T-bend tests. This shape leaves a portion of each bendexposed for later examination and for a permanent record.NOTE 2A longitudinal bend is in the same

19、 direction with respect toand along the rolling or flow direction. A transverse bend is perpendicularto and across the rolling or flow direction.6.1.2 Secure between 0.25 and 0.75 in.

Rub thetape flat; then, holding the specimen firmly, remove the tapewith a r

Inthe case of a metallic coated steel specimen (for example,galvanized steel), examine the tape to determine whetherpickoff is

Continue to bend the free end around thefirst (OT) bend to complete a 180 bend, and tighten in the viseas before. This

Examine the coatingand perform the tape test for cracking and pickoff, as with theOT bend.6.1.7 Repeat this procedure, making a 2T, 3T, etc., bendsuntil no cracking or pickoff occurs.
