1、Designation: D 6037 96 (Reapproved 2008)Standard Test Methods forDry Abrasion Mar Resistance of High Gloss Coatings1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 6037; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the yea

2、r 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 Two test methods are included. Test Method A uses adevice that contains an abrasive wheel. Test Method B uses ade

3、vice that contains a wheel that has been fitted with abrasivepaper. Either method can be used to evaluate the dry abrasionmar resistance of coatings applied to planar, rigid surfaces.Each test method provides good discrimination between highlymar resistant coatings.1.2 Mar resistance is assessed by

4、measuring the gloss ofabraded and unabraded areas. Mar resistance is directly relatedto the coatings ability to retain gloss in abraded areas.NOTE 1The mar resistance values obtained by these test methodshave no absolute significance. They should only be used to derive relativeperformance rankings f

5、or test panels that have been prepared from theseries of coatings that are currently being evaluated. If mar resistancevalues are quoted between laboratories, it is essential that a commonstandard be measured and that the values be compared to that standard.Even then, the values should be used with

6、caution.1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if a

7、ny, 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.

11、Standard:3.1.1 mar resistance, nthe ability of a coating to resistpermanent deformation or fracture, resulting from the applica-tion of a dynamic mechanical force. These test methodsmeasure resistance to visible damage caused by mild abrasion.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 The coatings that are being

12、evaluated are applied atuniform dry film thickness to planar panels of uniform surfacetexture. After drying or curing, or both, the panels are marred.Mar resistance is assessed by measuring the coatings glosswithin the abraded and unabraded areas of test panels. Marresistance is directly related to

13、the coatings ability to retaingloss in abraded areas.5. Significance and Use5.1 Coatings, particularly the high gloss coatings used onautomobiles, boats, toys, etc., are subject to a wide variety ofconditions (for example, wiping, cleaning, and exposure) thatcan mar their surface. The ability of the

14、se coatings to maintaintheir appearance is an important product attribute. These testmethods provide a way to estimate the ability of high glosscoatings to resist mar damage.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D01 on Paintand Related Coatings, Materials, and Applications an

17、nited States.5.2 These test methods do not provide fundamental values.However they are suitable for estimating the ability of highgloss coatings to resist mar.5.3 Since the susceptibility of coatings to marring varieswidely, the number of cycles that are needed to cause “rel-evant” mar damage also v

18、aries. Usually, 2 to 50 cycles aresufficient.TEST METHOD A6. Apparatus6.1 Application Equipment, as described in Practices D 609,and D 823.6.2 Film Thickness Measuring Apparatus, as described inTest Methods D 1005, D 1186 or D 1400.6.3 Abrader4The abraser so constructed that wheels ofseveral degrees

19、 of abrasiveness may be readily used. In thismethod only the 500-g load is used unless otherwise specified.6.4 Refacing DiscAn S-11 refacing disc4for resurfacingthe abrasive wheels. The load selected is the same as the testload.6.5 Abrasive Wheels“Calibrase” wheels CS-10,4unlessotherwise specified o

20、r agreed. Wheels that have worn to thediameter of the wheel label should not be used. If the time ofthe test is not within one year from date of purchase, thefollowing test may provide an indication of the degree ofhardening which has occurred.6.5.1 If required, measure hardness in accordance with T

21、estMethod D 2240 on at least four points equally spaced on thecenter of the abrading surface and one point on each sidesurface of the wheel. The test on the abrading surface shall bemade with pressure applied vertically along the diameter of thewheel, and the reading taken 10 s after full pressure i

22、s applied.If any reading on a wheel exceeds the equivalent of 90 units ona ShoreAscale, the wheel should be considered suspect for thismethod.NOTE 2The abrasive quality of a “Calibrase” wheel may change withhardness. Hardness can change with time and storage conditions. How-ever, abrasive quality ca

23、nt be inferred from hardness measurementsalone. Many other factors can also affect abrasive quality.6.6 Glossmeter, with 20 geometry complying with TestMethod D 523 but with an opening no larger than 1 by 3 in. (25by 75 mm) to accommodate 4 by 4-in. (100 by 100-mm) testpanels. In addition, geometry

24、that places the panel with the testsurface facing upwards tends to minimize the chance of straylight affecting the measurement when complete coverage of theopening is not attained.NOTE 3Subjective evaluations may be made visually by comparingabraded panels with a measured abraded standard using one

25、of theprocedures in Test Method D 4449.7. Preparation of Specimens7.1 Prepare a minimum of two 4 by 4-in. panels for eachcoating that is being tested. Prepare and coat panels inaccordance with Practices D 609 and D 823.7.1.1 Panels,5that is, metal panels with a14-in. (6-mm) holedrilled in the center

26、 to accommodate the mounting spindle, areavailable.7.1.2 If it is not convenient to apply test coatings to panels,5other planar, distortion-free substrates can be used by substi-tuting a “Drive Pin Type” specimen holder for the standardpanel holder.NOTE 4It is important that the panels be planar for

27、 reproducibleresults. Cutting and drilling of painted panels has not been satisfactory.NOTE 5Measurements are color dependent. Dark colors give lowervalues of gloss retention. To standardize, it is recommended that testing bedone using a black coating. Clearcoats are applied over a black basecoat.Fo

28、r other colors a black panel should be included as a control.8. Conditioning8.1 Cure the coated panels under conditions of temperatureand humidity as agreed upon between the purchaser and theseller.8.2 Unless otherwise agreed upon between the purchaserand the seller, condition the coated panels for

29、at least 24 h at73.5 6 3.5F (23 6 2C) and 50 6 5 % relative humidity inaccordance with Specification D 3924. Conduct the test in thesame environment or immediately after removal therefrom.9. Procedure9.1 Using a glossmeter that has been properly adjusted,measure the 20 gloss at four positions within

30、 the test area thatwill be abraded. Record the mean of these four readings as“Unabraded Gloss.”NOTE 6It is recommended that the panel be marked, or a template becreated, to ensure that measurements are taken in the area that will beabraded.9.2 Mount the pair of “Calibrase” wheels to be used on their

31、respective flange holders, taking care not to handle them bytheir abrasive surfaces. Select the same load to be used in thetest and affix it to the abraser. Mount an S-11 refacing disc onthe turntable. Reface new wheels for 100 cycles. Refacepreviously used wheels for 50 cycles. Reface the wheels fo

32、r 50cycles before abrading each specimen. In each case brush theresidue from the resurfacing operation off each wheel. Discardthe S-11 refacing disc after each use.9.3 Mount the test panel on the turntable and subject it toabrasion for a selected number of cycles. An abrasion of 10cycles and 500 g-l

33、oad are typically used, unless otherwiseagreed upon. Use a soft camels hair brush or compressed airto remove residue from the specimen after abrasion.9.4 Repeating 9.1, measure the gloss at four positions withinthe abraded area. Record the mean of these four readings as“Abraded Gloss.”4The sole sour
