1、Designation: D5796 10Standard Test Method forMeasurement of Dry Film Thickness of Thin-Film Coil-Coated Systems by Destructive Means Using a BoringDevice1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5796; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption

2、 or, in the 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 test method covers the measurement of dry filmthickness (DFT) of coatin

3、g films by microscopic observation ofa precision-cut, shallow-angle crater bored into the coatingfilm. This crater reveals cross sectional layers appearing asrings, whose width is proportional to the depth of the coatinglayer(s) and allows for direct calculation of dry film thickness.1.1.1 The Appar

4、atus, Procedure, and Precision and Biasdiscussions include Method A and Method B. Method Ainvolves the use of an optical measurement apparatus which isno longer commercially available, but remains a valid methodof dry film measurement. Method B is a software drivenmeasurement procedure that supersed

5、es Method A.1.2 The substrate may be any rigid, metallic material, suchas cold-rolled steel, hot-dipped galvanized steel, aluminum,etc. The substrate must be planar with the exception ofsubstrates exhibiting “coil set,” which may be held level by theuse of the clamping tool on the drilling device.NO

6、TE 1Variations in the surface profile of the substrate may result inmisrepresentative organic coating thickness readings. This condition mayexist over substrates such as hot-dipped, coated steel sheet. This is true ofall “precision cut” methods that are used to determine dry film thicknessof organic

7、 coatings. This is why several measurements across the stripmay be useful if substrate surface profile is suspect.1.3 The range of thickness measurement is 0 to 3.5 mils (0to 89 m).NOTE 2For DFT measurements of films greater than 3.5 mils (89m),but less than 63 mils (1600 m), a 45 borer may be used

8、in accordancewith this test method, with the exception of 6.8, where the micrometerreading would provide a direct read-out, and division by ten would beunnecessary per 4.3.1 Method A.1.4 Measurements may be made on coil-coated sheet, cer-tain formed products, or on test panels.1.5 The values stated

The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use.

19、hair on the enlarged image. This very effectivelyminimizes error or lack of consistency on the part of theoperator in lining up the cross-hair.4.3.2 Method B, Computer MonitorIt is attached to amicroscope with external lighting and conveys the image viasoftware onto a computer monitor. The monitor a

The microscope fa

21、cili-tates viewing and measuring the crater.4.5 The instrument is calibrated by taking measurements ona standard, which is traceable to a national standards institu-tion.6Calibration is a procedure that is done during setup andwill require recalibration if changes are made to the micro-scope, boring

22、 device, or the camera system. Calibration veri-fication should be done at intervals agreed upon between theuser and the consumer, but no less often than indicated by themanufacturer of the measuring device.5. Test Specimens5.1 If multiple coats of paint are to be measured, successivecontiguous coat

23、s should be of contrasting colors to aid sharpdiscrimination of interfaces (see 3.2).5.2 Generally, test specimens shall be prepared (as testpanels) or chosen (as sites on a coil-coated sheet) to berepresentative of localized coating thickness and variability.5.3 If test panels are to be laboratory

24、prepared, this shouldbe done using accepted industry practices, in accordance withGuide D3794.6. Procedure6.1 Select a test panel or choose a site for thicknessmeasurement.6.2 Using an appropriate surface marker7of contrastingcolor, mark a line on the surface about 25-mm long and 12-mmwide. In most

25、cases, the use of a marker is not necessary, butfor certain colors, usually whites, its use may be desirable.Depending upon the coating and the type of marker used, it ispossible for the marker to be absorbed into the coating, up to0.2-mils (5-m) deep. This effect can make it difficult todetermine t

26、he position of the top edge of the crater. Externalfluorescent lighting may be positioned to enhance the imageand eliminate the need for a marker. The use of a marker,lighting, or marker and lighting shall be agreed upon betweenthe user and customer.6.3 Select the appropriate borer bit. A typical bi

27、t used forcoil coatings has a depth range of 0 to 2 mils, but others areavailable. The bit type and depth range shall be agreed uponbetween the user and customer.6.4 Place the test panel on the borer stage (align the markedline, if required) so that it is positioned under the bit. Clamp thepanel int

28、o place.6.5 With a small brush, clean debris from the borer bit, the“depth stop surface,” and the surface of the test panel. Debrisin these areas will result in a shallower and smaller crater, withconsequently inaccurate results.6.6 Adjust the depth control wheel so that the carbide borerbit just pe

29、netrates the metallic substrate, to avoid undue wearon the borer tip. This can only be done by trial and error dueto substrate thickness variation.6.7 If the boring device is automated, follow the instructionsin 6.7.1; if the boring device is manually operated, follow theinstructions in 6.7.2.6.7.1

30、Automated Boring DevicePush the button to acti-vate boring device. Do not make a second stroke into the samecrater; do not allow the borer head to penetrate a previouslytested crater.6.7.2 Manual Boring DeviceMove the borer head downin a smooth, slow action to its full travel position, thenimmediate

31、ly return it to its full rest position. Do not allow theborer head to rest in the “down” position; ragged edges orsmeared coating may result, rendering accurate film measure-ment more difficult. Do not make a second stroke into the samecrater; do not allow the borer head to penetrate a previouslytes

32、ted crater.6.8 Place the test panel on the measure stage, and locate thecrater on the monitor by moving the panel either with yourhands, or with the two micrometers that control the movementof the stage.6.9 If the viewing method is optical, follow the instructionsin 6.9.1; if the viewing method is s

Carefully alignthe outer edge of the corsshair with the edge of the coating.Zero the micrometer. Then move the microscope stage with themicrometer adjustments so that the outer edge

39、of the cross-hairs are aligned at the rim of the crater in the paint film.Determine the amount of travel from the micrometer anddivide this reading by ten (10) to obtain the film thickness ofthe paint film (see Fig. 2 and Fig. 3).6.9.1.1 The reading on the micrometer divided by ten willbe the total

40、mils dry film thickness (DFT). Repeat thisprocedure on the other side of the crater, and average the tworeadings.6.9.1.2 It may be possible to read both the primer and thetopcoat film thicknesses (or any of the constituent layers of amulticoat system) separately. To acquire multicoat film mea-sureme

41、nts, each coating layer must exhibit good adhesion,which appears as a smooth circular cut without ragged edges ordebris so a definite, visible delineation of the film layers ispossible.6.9.2 Method B, Software MeasurementAcquire the im-age by selecting the proper icon on the software menu.
