43、SCRIM (REINFORCING FABRIC)FOR TYPE II SHEETA1.1 ScopeThis is a method for measuring the thicknessof the coating over the reinforcing fabric.A1.2 Measurement Method PrincipleThe thickness ofcoating material over reinforcing fabric can be observed with astandard reflectance microscope. Measurement is

44、made with acalibrated eyepiece.A1.3 Apparatus:A1.3.1 Microscope,603 with reticle.A1.3.2 Light SourceIf light source on the microscope isnot adequate, a small tensor lamp can also be used.A1.3.3 Stage Micrometer, 0.0254-mm (0.001-in.) divisions.A1.4 Procedure:A1.4.1 Calibration:A1.4.1.1 Place a stand

45、ard reflectance stage micrometer inplace of the specimen.A1.4.1.2 Turn on microscope light source.A1.4.1.3 Position the reticle eyepiece and the micrometersuch that the scales are superimposed. Focus the reticle byturning the eyepiece. Focus the specimen and reticle by turningthe vertical adjustment

46、 knob.A1.4.1.4 Locate a point at which both scales line up. Countthe number of micrometer divisions away. Measure to thenearest 0.0125 mm (0.5 mil). The calibration may be optimizedin increasing the number of divisions measured.A1.4.1.5 Repeat the calibration three times and average theresults.A1.4.

47、2 Specimen Analysis:A1.4.2.1 Carefully center a sharp single edge razor orequivalent over the fiber intersections along thexxline.A1.4.2.2 Make a clean bias cut completely through the liner.A1.4.2.3 Remove the razor cut section and mount in com-mon putty with the cut surface facing upward.A1.4.2.4 O

48、bserve the cut surface with the eyepiece reticle.Measure the thickness of the coating on either side of thethread intersection by counting the number of reticle divisions(to the nearest one-half division).A1.4.2.5 Sample two or three areas of the coatings andaverage the results.A1.5 Calculation:A1.5

49、.1 Calibration:A1.5.1.1 A calibration example follows:In this example, 4.5 micrometer divisions (MD) are equal to4 reticle divisions (RD).4 RD!54.5 MD! (A1.1)1 RD!54.5/4 MD! (A1.2)1 RD!51.125 MD!
