Summary of Practice3.1 This practice is for the evaluation of relative resistanceto wet stack corrosion and blistering of coil-coated metal. Thetest is to be conducted in an outd

9、oor environment withcoil-coated panels placed on a flat surface while allowingexposure to direct weather conditions including rain, dew, andsolar radiation.3.2 It is necessary to expose negative controls in each testrun, that is, products with known resistance to corrosion andblistering in this loca

10、tion, at the same time as the test productto determine its resistance relative to controls.3.3 Panels are evaluated periodically for corrosion andblistering as specified in 6.7.4. Significance and Use4.1 This practice provides for periodic testing for resistanceto wet conditions during storage to co

11、mpare the relativeperformance of specific combinations of coatings, substrates,and/or pretreatments used on coil-coated metal. The resultsmust be considered relative and do not indicate absoluteperformance.4.2 When stored improperly, coil-coated building panelstacks can be exposed to rainwater, whic

12、h flows into gapsbetween panels by capillary action or gravity, and remains inthe gaps because of poor drainage conditions. Such a conditionis known as a “wet stack” and may cause blistering andcorrosion of the painted surfaces. This practice simulates suchimproper storage conditions.4.3 Because the

13、 outdoor environment shows year-to-yearseasonal and geographic climate variation, the absolute amountof degradation based on corrosion and blistering may vary (seeAppendix X1).4.4 Temperature, rain, humidity, and storage practices areimportant factors in wet stack corrosion.

Testsites must have the instrumentation to measure and recordambient temperature and rainfall as in Practice G7.4.5 This practice is not meant to support the field storage ofcoil-coated metal

18、in any way other than what is recommendedby the manufacturer.5. Apparatus5.1 The use of a wooden or plastic pallet to stack the testpanels in a horizontal position is one way to ensure rain doesnot puddle around the panels. Rainwater and condensation flowdown the sides of the stacks, and water is dr

19、awn betweenpanels by capillary action. Excess water will drain through theslats in the pallet (see Fig. 1).5.2 The pallet is recommended to be 61 cm to 91 cm (24 in.to 36 in.) from the ground and all foliage should be maintainedso that it does not create shade on or contact with the testpanels.5.3 W

20、ooden two by four boards of approximate cross-sectional dimensions, 4 cm by 9 cm (1.5 in by 3.5 in.) and ofthe required length are placed on top of the stacks (see Fig. 1).The pallets and boards shall be composed of untreated wood toavoid any influence from the treatment.5.4 The apparatus shall be p

21、laced in an unsheltered locationthat is subject to direct weathering conditions including rain,dew, and solar radiation.6. Procedure6.1 A wooden pallet or some flat surface with slats for waterdrainage is assembled in the required location. See Section 5.6.2 Test panels shall be gathered and cut to

22、the required size.A size of at least 15 cm by 15 cm (6 in. by 6 in.) is required.Duplicates of each panel are required to allow contact betweenthe topside and backside of the same sample Panels to becompared must be cut on the same metal shear with edge burrsoriented in the same direction. Edge resu

23、lts may be signifi-cantly influenced by burr differences. Corrosion ratings shallinclude any visible red or white corrosion products.6.3 A minimum of two extra panels shall be placed at thetop and two at the bottom of the stack to act as a barrier to anyinfluences from the wood or water accumulation

24、.6.4 The test panel numbers shall be recorded along withinformation such as coil line, paint code, substrate, primer,pretreatment, and date of test initiation.6.5 The test panels shall be stacked on top of one anotherwith the convex side facing upward against the backer of aduplicate panel to form a

25、 panel pair. If available, a duplicatepair of panels is highly recommended. Negative controls arerequired in order to provide a reference point for test duration.6.6 Each stack of test panels shall be no greater than 5 cm(2 in.) in height and have no less than 8 panels and shall beweighted down with

26、 a single wooden two by four withcross-sectional dimensions, 4 cm by 9 cm (1.5 in. by 3.5 in.) ontop of each stack or spanning two or more stacks. The negativecontrol shall be placed near the center of the stack.6.7 It is recommended that panels be evaluated for corrosionand blistering monthly in ac

27、cordance with Test Methods D610,D714, and D1654 Procedure B, until the negative controlshows blister failure. Longer test times will be required duringperiods of drought (see Appendix X1.) Evaluation of fieldcorrosion and blistering is considered to be the most appropri-ate for this test, but edge r

28、esults may also be assessed.7. Report7.1 The report section shall contain the following informa-tion when available. In many cases, specific information aboutthe materials used or preparation of the test specimens is notavailable to commercial testing agencies.7.1.1 Included in the test reports shal

29、l be the location wherethe test is performed, the start date of the test and the date ofthe evaluation.7.1.2 The test report shall include a measurement of totalrainfall and number of days with rain during the test period atthe test location. A rain day shall be considered any day with0.8 mm (0.03 i

30、n.) or greater of rainfall accumulation.7.1.3 The test report shall include the average daily maxi-mum temperature and average daily minimum relative humid-ity during the test period.7.1.4 The test report shall include the manufacturer of theproduct and any experimental, raw material, or coating pro

31、cesschanges for the product being tested.7.1.5 The test report shall include the coating paint code,substrate, primer, backer and pretreatment used. Dry filmcoating thickness (DFT) and pretreatment weight may also beimportant and should be reported, if available.7.1.6 Samples shall be evaluated for

32、corrosion and blisters.Any notable changes shall be recorded. Corrosion and blisters,including any red or white corrosion products, shall be rated inaccordance with Test Methods D1654, Procedure B, D610, andD714. The results from duplicate pairs of panels shall bereported separately to illustrate te

DETERMINATION OF TEST DURATIONX1.1 Outdoor wet stack testing relies on rainfall to supplywater for absorption into the stacked metal by capillary action.To some extent, d

35、ew contributes to wetness, but the rain is theprimary source of water. Because rainfall plays a major role inoutdoor wet stack testing, the seasonal and interannual (year-to-year) variability of rainfall at a given location represents amajor influence on test results from run-to-run. Although thesta

36、ndard is concerned with the relative performance of coil-coated samples, and the inclusion of a negative control withknown performance is required (see 6.5), the influence ofrainfall cannot be ignored, especially during periods of droughtwhen little or no rainfall may occur at a given location. This

37、commentary is intended to provide a benchmark for rainfall ina location where the test has been run successfully.X1.2 As an example of a preferred location and test period,Fort Myers, Florida is used. It is a location south of 27Nlatitude as recommended in Section 4. Based on 30-yearrainfall data fr

38、om Fort Myers Page Field, the six-month periodwith the greatest rainfall is represented by the months of Maythrough October. During the 30-year time period from 1971 to2000, the total average rainfall for these six months was 42.16in. These six months also correspond to the time period ofhighest ave

39、rage temperature, which is also an influence on therate of corrosion and blister formation. Hence, the preferredtest period is May through October in Florida, south of 27Nlatitude, and a benchmark for total rainfall during the testperiod is 42.16 in. If the test is run in a different climate withdif

40、ferent rainfall and temperatures, the time to failure for thenegative control is expected to differ accordingly.X1.3 Because of the spatial variability of rainfall on thekilometer and even sub-kilometer scale, section 4.4 requiresthat test sites have instrumentation to measure rainfall. A“local” wea

41、ther reporting station, for example, may be morethan 5 kilometers from a test site, and rainfall may differsignificantly between the two sites over short time periods. Theaccuracy of the measurements (for example, in hundredths) arenot as critical as the number of days with rainfall in a giventime p

42、eriod. Section 7 requires that the total rainfall andnumber of days with rainfall be recorded for the test period.X1.4 If the test is to be run at a location other than southFlorida where no benchmark for rainfall exists, the use of anegative control to verify failure would be the only means ofdeter

43、mining the appropriate test duration. The total test timeshall be defined by the time that it takes to observe blisteringon the negative control. This would be some minimum level offailure, such as few #8 blisters as defined by Test MethodD714.ASTM International takes no position respecting the vali
