The approach used should provide faster and moreaccurate results than the use of the liquid displacementtechnique in Test Method D2697, particularly for coatings thatare difficult to wet or that contain voids, cracks or other defects.The improvem

This provides a moreaccurate determination of void volumes than can be obtainedvia liquid displacement.1.2 The technique will provide results under the

Summary of Test Method3.1 This procedure measures the volume of nonvolatilematerial in a dried or baked coating film. A helium ga

The weight of the specimen is also measuredand the two values are used to calculate the dry film density.3.2 The percent volume nonvolatile content of a coating iscalculated u

Significance and Use4.1 This test method measures the volume of dry coatingobtainable from a given volume of liquid coating. This value isuseful for calculating the volatile organic content

18、l coveragewill be greater. The higher the pigment to binder ratio (P/B) of a coatingor the higher content of void containing material (latices, hollow beads,etc.) or both, the greater will be the deviation of the coverage calculation(This is also true to a lesser degree with Test Method D2697).4.2 F

19、or various reasons the volume nonvolatile value ob-tained for a coating is often not equal to that predicted fromsimple linear addition of the weights and volumes of the rawmaterials in a formulation. One reason is that the volumeoccupied by a solution of resin in solvent may be the same,greater, or

20、 less than the total volume of the separate ingredi-ents. Such contraction or expansion of resin solutions isgoverned by a number of factors, one of which is the extent anddirection of spread between solubility parameters of the resinand solvent.4.3 The spatial configuration of the pigment particles

21、 andthe degree to which the pigment particles are filled with thebinder also affect the volume of a dry coating film. Above thecritical pigment volume concentration, the apparent volume ofthe dry film is significantly greater than theoretical due to theincrease in unfilled voids between pigment part

22、icles. The useof volume nonvolatile matter values in such instances shouldbe carefully considered as the increased volume is largely dueto air trapped in these voids.4.4 For thin films, the issue of critical pigment volumeeffects is usually not a concern. With high poly(vinyl chloride)(PVC) films, h

23、owever, liquid displacement of air voids takesplace with difficulty even under high pressures. Helium solvesthis problem since, as a gas, it readily penetrates and displacesair, water, and volatile solvents even at low pressures. Purgingthe gas pycnometer flushes these materials from the film.5. App

Procedure6.1 Determine the wet coating density (pounds per gallon)in accordance with Test Method D1475.6.2 Determine the weight percent nonvolatile content of theliquid sample in accordance with Test Method D2369.6.3 Wrap 4 by 12-in. panels (102 by 305-mm), (two persample) with sheeting5and t

28、ape the sheeting to the back of thepanels with masking tape. Do not overlap the sheeting on thebacks of the panels.NOTE 4The objective of this procedure is to obtain the coating free ofsubstrate. Other collection methods, such as scraping the coating fromglass plates or using release paper instead o

29、f sheeting5are acceptable. Seealso Practice D4708 for other film preparation techniques.6.4 Place the wrapped panels on a panel rack and bake at160C, for 10 to 15 min. Baking will tighten the sheeting5andremove any wrinkles. After baking, allow panels to cool atroom temperature for at least 15 min.6

30、.5 Prepare a thin, uniform, bubble-free film on the wrappedpanels either by spraying or with a drawdown blade, to obtaina dry film thickness of 1.0 to 1.8 mils (25 to 46 m). Thinnerfilms of 1.0 to 1.2 mils (25 to 31 m) have fewer potentialproblems with entrapped solvents.6.6 Bake the coated panels f

31、or 60 min at 110C in a forceddraft oven, then cool at room temperature for 20 to 30 min.6.7 Cut a slit across the top or bottom, about12 in. from theedge of the film. Separate a small portion of the film from thesheeting5with a scalpel or razor blade. Work a thin narrowspatula blade (about 4-12 in.-

32、long (115-mm) under the sepa-rated portion of the file then remove the film by working thespatula blade between the film and substrate along and acrosseach side and end of the panel.6.8 Place the film on a piece of sheeting5or plain paper thathas been treated with the anti-static device. Treat the f
