1、Designation: D 4610 98 (Reapproved 2004)Standard Guide forDetermining the Presence of and Removing Microbial(Fungal or Algal) Growth on Paint and Related Coatings1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 4610; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforigina

2、l adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This guide describes techniques used for determiningthe presence

3、of fungal or algal growth on paint and relatedcoatings and methods for removal of such growth prior torecoating.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety

4、concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility 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.

Significance and Use3.1 Microbial growth is a major cause of discoloration anddeterioration of paint f

6、ilms. This guide describes techniquesused to distinguish fungi and algae from other surface con-taminants.3.2 Repainting a surface contaminated with fungi or algaegenerally causes more rapid infestation of the new paint thanrepainting a surface from which fungal or algal growth hasbeen removed. In a

7、ddition, poor adhesion, staining/bleeding,and many other problems may result. This guide describesmethods for removing fungal or algal growth prior to repaint-ing.NOTE 1It is extremely important that all steps and notes be read andfollowed. In particular the washing steps outlined in 5.2.2 and 5.2.4

8、 mustbe fully carried out, since residual sodium hypochlorite (bleach) can causemany of the same problems, or even loss of coloration after repainting,and residual phosphate detergents can encourage further fungal and algalgrowth.NOTE 2This procedure is intended for use when recoating the surface.Re

9、ports of using this procedure to remove fungi and algae withoutrecoating necessitate inclusion of a warning about the adverse effects ofbleach on a coating film. The oxidative effects of bleach can degrade filmproperties, including particularly the “bleaching” (loss of color) in filmscontaining orga

10、nic coloring pigments (such as quinacridones, etc.), loss ofgloss, chalking, etc. A small patch must be tested prior to use of thisprocedure for that purpose.4. Reagents4.1 Sodium Hypochlorite, approximately 5 % aqueous(NaOCl) as commercial household bleach. Because sodiumhypochlorite decomposes on

11、exposure to heat and sunlight andbecomes ineffective, use only fresh material. See Test MethodsD 2022 for methods of sampling and chemical analysis.4.2 Phosphate-Free, non-ammonia-containing detergent orcommercial cleaner recommended for washing paint.5. Procedures5.1 Determining the Presence of Fun

12、gal or Algal Growth onPaint:5.1.1 ChemicalApply a drop of 5 % aqueous sodiumhypochlorite solution (common household bleach) to the areasuspected of being contaminated with fungal or algal growth.Fungal or algal discoloration will normally bleach within 60 s.Discoloration that does not bleach is prob

13、ably dirt. For furtherconfirmation do visual and subculture tests.5.1.2 The following procedures should preferably be usedby persons who have had basic microbiological training:5.1.2.1 VisualExamine the surface using magnificationfrom 10 to 1003 to distinguish among fungal, algal, or dirtdisfigureme

18、 Growth on Paint:5.2.1 Wash the surface with a solution of approximately 2 %phosphate-free detergent in water.NOTE 4The term wash as it is used in 5.2.1 and 5.2.3 is defined asfirmly scrubbing the surface with a fully wet sponge or other suitableapplicator. Care should be taken to ensure the surface

19、 is thoroughly wetwith cleaning solution.5.2.2 Thoroughly rinse the surface with water to removeresidual detergent.5.2.3 Wash the surface with a solution of 1 part by volumeof sodium hypochlorite 5 % aqueous solution and 3 parts byvolume of water.NOTE 5See warnings in Note 1 and Note 2. Also be warn

20、ed thatoverspray of bleach can be detrimental to ornamental shrubs, plants orlawn, and can “bleach,” discolor, or otherwise degrade adjacent areas ifnot adequately protected from exposure. Adequate personal protectiveequipment should always be used.NOTE 6The solution should be allowed to remain on t

21、he surface from10 to 15 min.NOTE 7The sodium hypochlorite solution and the 2 % detergentsolution may be combined 1:1 by volume in one treatment if desired.5.2.4 Thoroughly rinse the surface with water to removeresidual sodium hypochlorite (see Note 1).5.2.5 If agreed upon by the parties involved, re
