1、Designation: D 4941 06Standard Practice forPreparing Drawdowns of Artists Paste Paints1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 4941; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number

2、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 practice covers the production of uniform films ofartists tube paints and other nonflowing pigmented paintsusing paint applicators desig

The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety conc

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.

6、 of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.2.1 drawdown, na layer of paint deposited on a sub-strate by use of a drawdown bar for the evaluation of paintcharacteristics.3.2.2 drawdown bar, na metal applicator with a specifiedgap designed to deposit a wet paint film uniformly on aspecified test panel (for

7、 example, an opacity chart) or othersubstrate.4. Summary of Practice4.1 The paint is spread over the area of the test panel to becovered by the drawdown and the bar is pulled down withpressure just sufficient to avoid lifting of the bar from the chartsurface.4.2 Test panels are allowed to dry in a d

8、ust-free environ-ment.4.3 If complete hiding (opacity) is needed and not producedby a single paint film, a second film is applied at a 90 angle tothe first. If required, additional layers may be applied using anarrower drawdown bar.5. Significance and Use5.1 Quality standards for artists paints requ

When complete hiding isne

12、cessary, this practice is designed to provide opaque filmswithout these defects through application of a series of thinfilms.6. Apparatus6.1 Drawdown Bars, two, of different widths with a clear-ance of 0.152 mm (0.006 in.). Recommended widths are 7.6cm (3 in.) and 15.2 cm (6 in.). The second bar is

13、required toprepare drawdowns with more than two layers. Wire wounddrawdown bars have been found to be unsuitable.6.2 Drawdown Charts, sealed paper type, half black andhalf white if transparency is being evaluated or opacity isnecessary.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D01 o

16、 C700, West Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959, United States.7. Procedure7.1 Attach chart to a firm, smooth, level plane surface usingtape, a vacuum plate, or a clamp. Label the chart with theidentity of the specimen and other data as required.7.2 Mix paint sample thoroughly using two spatulas. Tubepaints

17、 that have separated should be expelled completely andmixed.NOTE 1The use of coated freezer wrapping paper as a mixing surfacesimplifies clean up. The same paper can be used for weighing specimenswhen required as in the tinting strength determination (Test MethodD 4838).7.3 Using a spatula, spread t

18、he paint, in a thickness exceed-ing the bars gap clearance, over the entire area to be coveredby the drawdown. Do not cover the area to be contacted by thesupporting feet of the wider of the two bars. Starting at the topof the chart and using the wider bar, draw the bar down overthe paint in an even

19、 motion applying sufficient pressure toensure that the resistance of the viscous paint does not raise thefeet of the bar from the surface. When using oil paints themotion should be slow enough to allow for the high viscosity.Acrylic paints, which have short drying times, should beapplied immediately

20、 after mixing to avoid premature filmformation.7.4 After drying in a horizontal position for 15 min,specimens may be hung in a vertical position in a dust-free areato complete the drying. Allow 24 h for acrylic and alkyd paintsand 48 h or longer for oil paints until dry to touch.7.5 Examine the spec

21、imen for surface defects and discard ifunacceptable.7.6 If complete hiding is required, compare, either visuallyor instrumentally, the lightness of the paint on the black portionof the chart with that on the white. For instrumental evaluation,follow the procedures given in Practice E 1164 to determi

22、neCIE Y for each portion, then calculate the contrast ratio of thepaint film on the two portions of the chart (CIE Yblack/CIEYwhite). A contrast ratio of 0.98 or higher is considered opaque.7.6.1 If opacity is not sufficient, rotate the chart through a90 angle and deposit a second film using the wid

23、er bar torepeat the procedure in 7.3 through 7.5. If additional layers arerequired, repeat this sequence using the narrower bar. Becareful each time that the feet of the drawdown bar ride on thesurface of the combined lower layers. See Fig. 1 and Fig. 2.NOTE 2The most transparent paints studied were

24、 found to requirethree coats; however, in some instances, such as with alizarin crimson oilpaint, it may not be practical to obtain complete hiding.8.
