Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the measurement of dry filmthickne

3、ss (DFT) of coating 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 thickne

4、ss.1.1.1 The Apparatus, 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 proce

5、dure that supersedes 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

6、drilling device.NOTE 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 t

7、hicknessof organic 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

8、borer may be used 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 microscope facili-tates viewing and measuring the crater.4.5 The instrument is calibrated by taking me

21、asurements ona standard, which is traceable to a national standards institu-tion.5Calibration is a procedure that is done during setup andwill require recalibration if changes are made to themicroscope, boring device, or the camera system. Calibrationverification should be done at intervals agreed u

22、pon betweenthe user and the consumer, but no less often than indicated bythe manufacturer of the measuring device.5. Test Specimens5.1 If multiple coats of paint are to be measured, successivecontiguous coats should be of contrasting colors to aid sharpdiscrimination of interfaces (see 3.2).5.2 Gene

23、rally, 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 prepared, this shouldbe done using accepted industry practices, in accordance withGuide D3794

24、.6. Procedure6.1 Select a test panel or choose a site for thicknessmeasurement.6.2 Using an appropriate surface marker6of contrastingcolor, mark a line on the surface about 25-mm long and 12-mmwide. In most cases, the use of a marker is not necessary, butfor certain colors, usually whites, its use m

25、ay 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 the position of the top edge of the crater. Externalfluorescent lighting may be positioned to

26、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 bit used forcoil coatings has a depth range of 0 to 2 mils, but others areavailable. The bit ty

27、pe 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 into place.6.5 With a small brush, clean debris from the borer bit, the“depth stop surface,” and

28、 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 penetrates the metallic substrate, to avoid undue wearon the borer tip. This can only be done b

Do not make a second stroke

30、into the samecrater; do not allow the borer head to penetrate a previouslytested crater.6.7.2 Manual Boring DeviceMove the borer head down ina smooth, slow action to its full travel position, then immedi-ately return it to its full rest position. Do not allow the borerhead to rest in the “down” posi

31、tion; ragged edges or smearedcoating may result, rendering accurate film measurement moredifficult. Do not make a second stroke into the same crater; donot allow the borer head to penetrate a previously tested crater.4The manufactured angle formed between the surface of the coating and thesubstrate

32、is 5 42 ft 38 in. and the resulting crater is circular.5The supplier of the standard used to generate the precision statement and usedfor calibration (silver-plated, copper substrate) is DJH Designs.

35、G. 1 Typical Crater Formed by Boring DeviceD5796 10 (2015)26.8 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

36、instructionsin 6.9.1; if the viewing method is software generated, followthe instructions in 6.9.2.6.9.1 Method A, Optical MeasurementAdjust the zoomlens to the maximum allowable zoom to fill the screen with theimage of the crater. Re-center the crater, and focus. Adjust thelightning to give maximum

37、 visual contrast between coatingsand coating/substrate. Align the cross-hair in the center of thecrater, and using the micrometer adjustments that control thevertical and horizontal movement of the stage, move thecross-hair to the inner edge of the crater in the paint film forwhich the film thicknes

38、s needs to be measured. 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 of the cross-hairs are aligned at the rim of the crater in the paint film.Determine the amount

39、 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 mils dry film thickness (DFT). Repeat thisprocedure on the other side of the crater, and avera

40、ge 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 filmmeasurements, each coating layer must exhibit good adhesion,which appears as a smooth circular cut withou

41、t ragged edges ordebris so a definite, visible delineation of the film layers ispossible.6.9.2 Method B, Software MeasurementAcquire the imageby selecting the proper icon on the software menu. Turn themicroscope lens so it zooms out and center the image of thecrater on the screen by turning the micr

42、ometers attached to thestage. Zoom in again to fill the screen with the crater whileadjusting the micrometers to maintain a fix on the image.Unlike Method A, you are not required to set the zoom at a setlevel for accurate film thickness measurement. Focus themicroscope and adjust the lighting or oth

43、er video optionsprovided to make the picture more refined. Capture the image.6.9.2.1 Choose the cross-hair icon and center it in themiddle of the crater. Mark the points of delineation where thecross-hair and substrate (and other constituent layers) converge(see Fig. 4).6.9.2.2 The average readings

44、with respect to the placementof the identified points on the cross-hairs will appear on thescreen along with the total average film build. The number ofpoints chosen to measure determines the number average. Ifthe user desires, the software will show each reading separatelyon the screen.7. Report7.1

45、 Report the following information:7.1.1 Results of a Thickness DeterminationIf more thanone measurement is made and specific results for each locationare not needed, report the average thickness of all readings andthe number of readings taken. It is not necessary to drill morethan one crater, but it
