1、Designation: D5723 95 (Reapproved 2015)Standard Practice forDetermination of Chromium Treatment Weight on MetalSubstrates by X-Ray Fluorescence1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5723; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in th

2、e case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers the use of X-ray fluorescence(XRF) techniques for determination o

3、f the coating weight ofchromium treatments on metal substrates. These techniques areapplicable for determination of the coating weight as chro-mium or total coating weight of a chromium-containingtreatment, or both, on a variety of metal substrates.1.2 This standard does not purport to address all o

4、f thesafety 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. Summary of Practice2.1 ExcitationThe measurement of chromium tr

5、eatmentcoating weights by XRF methods is based on the combinedinteraction of the chromium coating and substrate with anintense beam of primary radiation. Since each element fluo-resces at an energy characteristic of the particular element, thisinteraction results in the generation of X rays of defin

6、ed energy.The primary radiation may be generated by an X-ray tube orderive from a radioisotope.2.2 DetectionThe secondary beam (fluorescent X rays ofthe elements and scattered radiation) is read by a detector thatcan discriminate between the energy levels of fluorescingradiations in the secondary be

7、am. The detection system in-cludes the radiation detector with electronics for pulse ampli-fication and pulse counting.2.3 Basic Principle:2.3.1 A relationship exists between the treatment coatingweight and secondary radiation intensity. This relationship isusually linear within the desired coating

8、weights of thechromium treatments on metal substrates. The measurementsare based on primary standards of known coating weights andinstrument calibration that correlates the secondary radiationintensity with the coating weight quantitatively.2.3.2 The coating weight is determined by measurement ofthe

9、 fluorescent X rays of the coating. The detection system isset to count the number of X rays in an energy region that ischaracteristic of X rays from the element of interest. Theelement of interest in this practice is chromium.2.3.3 If a linear relationship exists, the coating weight andnumber of co

10、unts of X rays of a chromium treatment on aparticular substrate can be expressed by a conversion factorthat represents the number of counts for a particular coatingweight unit/unit area. This is usually expressed in mg/ft2ormg/m2of chromium or total coating weight.2.3.4 The exact relationship betwee

11、n the measured numberof counts and corresponding coating weight must be estab-lished for each individual combination of substrate andchromium-containing treatment. Usually determined by thetreatment supplier, this relationship is established by usingprimary standards having known amounts of the same

12、 treat-ment applied to the same substrate composition as the speci-mens to be measured.2.3.5 Some X-ray apparatus have a data handling systemwhereby a coating weight versus X-ray counts curve may beestablished within the system for the direct readout of coatingweight. If such apparatus does not perm

13、it the entry of aconversion factor as described in 2.3.3, it is calibrated using abare, untreated specimen and a minimum of three specimenswith known coating weights of the treatment and substratecombination of interest. The coating weight to be measuredmust be within the range of these known coatin

14、g weights. Morethan three known specimens must be used if the relationship ofX-ray counts to coating weight is not linear over the range tobe measured. The treatment supplier should be consulted forrecommendations for establishing the curve in the instrumentfor the particular treatment and substrate

Significance and Use3.1 The procedure described in this practice is designed toprovide a method by which the coating weight of chromiumtreatments on metal substrates may be determined.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D01 on Paint andRelated Coatin

United States13.2 This procedure is applicable for determination of thetotal coating weight and the chromium coating weight of achromium-containing treatment.4. Apparatus and Materials4.1 Measuring Instrument,2which is ca

18、pable of determiningthe coating weights of chromium-containing treatments onmetal substrates by X-ray fluorescence is required. The treat-ment supplier should be consulted for the suitability of theinstrumentation to be used.4.2 Calibration Standard,3necessary to calibrate the instru-ment. The count

19、 value of this standard must be specified by thetreatment supplier.4.3 Treated Coupon, on which the coating weight is to bedetermined must be cut to the required size for the instrumentfrom the treated substrate.4.4 Blank (Bare and Untreated) Coupon should be a sampleof the same metal substrate on w

20、hich the treatment coatingweight is to be determined. It may be necessary to prepare ablank coupon from a treated sample if an untreated coupon isnot available. To best imitate a bare, untreated blank, abrade atreated coupon that is from the same metal specimen as the testspecimen with a small abras

21、ive pad.44.4.1 The first abrading is made parallel with the rollingdirection of the metal, the second abrading is made perpen-dicular to the rolling direction of the metal, and the thirdabrading is made parallel with the rolling direction of themetal. This procedure should be repeated until constant

22、 read-ings are obtained. Always use the same side of the metalsubstrate from which the readings of the treated coupon will betaken.5. Test Specimens5.1 All test specimens must be flat in the area of measure-ment and free of burrs and distortions that would preventproper seating in the specimen holde

23、r.5.2 The treatment on the substrate must be uniform in thearea of measurement.5.3 The area of measurement must be maintained free offoreign materials. The specimen must be handled only by theedges that are outside of the area to be measured.5.4 The coated area of the specimen must be larger than th

24、emeasuring area.6. Procedure6.1 Operate the instrument in accordance with the manufac-turers instructions.6.2 Set the instrument settings as follows:Dial and Arm Chromium PositionSeconds indicator per treatment supplierMultiplier switch per treatment supplierResponse switch per treatment supplierRan

25、ge per treatment supplierMilliamps adjust for calibration of output per treatment supplier6.3 All specimens must be seated firmly and securely overthe measuring opening. The distance between the measuringapparatus and specimen must be maintained the same as thatduring the calibration. The blank and

26、treated specimens mustbe placed in the holder so that the rolling direction of the metalis in the same orientation. Whenever a sample tray holder is apart of the apparatus, the same opening of the slide must beused for the blank and treated specimen unless the openingshave been determined to produce

27、 equivalent results. If it isnecessary to use a backer to hold the test specimen firmlyagainst the window, make sure that the backer is of untreatedcoupons of the same metal as the specimen. The same backermust be used for each set of measurements.6.4 Insert the chromium instrument calibration stand

28、ard thathas been recommended by the treatment supplier into theinstrument, and obtain a count. Adjust the current with thecontrol knob on the probe until the count value is within60.50 % of the counts provided by the treatment supplier witheach chromium calibration standard.6.5 Obtain the counts of

29、a blank.6.6 Obtain the counts of the treated specimen.6.7 Consult the instrument manufacturers instructionmanuals for calibrating and operating procedures if the X-rayapparatus has a data handling system for direct readout ofcoating weights.7. Calculation7.1 Use 7.2 7.5 for calculating the coating w
