Summary of Test Method4.1 A designated quantity of an acrylate-functional material(test specimen) i

16、s weighed in a container lid before and after aUV exposure step sufficient to ensure a thorough cure of thetest specimen to obtain the percent solids retained. Thecalculated percentage weight loss is attributed to processvolatiles. The test specimen and container lid are weighedagain after heating f

17、or 60 min at 110 6 5C to obtain thepercent solids retained. Any additional weight loss is attributedto potential volatiles. The total volatiles for a test specimen arethe difference between the initial sample mass and the retainedmass after exposing and heating divided by the initial mass.5. Signifi

18、cance and Use5.1 This test method is an extension of Test Method D5403.While Test Method D5403 specifies that a test specimen becured by exposure to UV or EB as prescribed by the supplierof the material, most radiation curable monomers and oligom-ers provided as raw materials to formulators are not

19、designedto be used alone but rather as blends of monomers andoligomers so that there are no “supplier prescribed” exposureconditions. Test Method D5403 is not appropriate for themeasurement of volatiles from thin radiation-curable coatingsbecause supplier prescribed cure conditions include both athi

20、ckness and an exposure specification which are difficult orimpossible to achieve in a test lab. Furthermore, inks form aspecial class of thin radiation curable coatings because they areformulated with known interferences (for example, pigments).As a result, Test Method D5403 does not provide a metho

21、d formeasuring volatiles from monomers and oligomers used as rawmaterials in the formulation of radiation curable coatings nordoes it provide a method for measuring volatiles from thinradiation curable coatings such as inks.5.2 This test method provides a means to measure thevolatile content of indi

22、vidual acrylate monomers, oligomers,and blends commonly used to formulate radiation curablecoatings such as printing inks. Such coatings comprise liquidor solid reactants that cure by polymerizing, crosslinking, or acombination of both and are designed to be applied as thincoatings in the absence of

23、 water or solvent and to be cured byexposing to ultraviolet radiation. There is currently no directmethod for measuring the volatiles from the individual mate-rials used or thin coatings made from them.5.3 This test method also provides a means to measure thevolatiles from acrylate monomers, oligome

24、rs, and blends curedusing ultraviolet radiation from which an estimate for thevolatiles from a thin coating cured using ultraviolet radiationcomprising these acrylate monomers, oligomers, and blendscan be calculated. A common exposure step involving aspecified amount of ultraviolet radiation in a sp

25、ecific spectralrange using a common photoinitiator is called for.5.4 This test method further provides a means to measurethe volatiles from thin radiation-curable coatings such as inksin the absence of known interferences such as pigments. Acommon exposure step involving a specified amount of ultra-

26、violet radiation in a specific spectral range using a commonphotoinitiator is called for.5.5 If desired, volatile content can be determined as twoseparate components: processing volatiles and potential vola-tiles. Processing volatiles are a measure of volatile loss duringthe actual cure process. Pot

27、ential (or residual) volatiles are ameasure of volatile loss that might occur upon aging or underextreme storage conditions. These volatile content measure-ments may be useful to the producer of a material, a formulatorusing such materials, or to environmental interests for deter-mining and reportin

28、g emissions.5.6 The validity of this test method for non-acrylatedradiation-curable chemistries such as methacrylates, thiol-ene,vinyl ethers, and epoxies cured using ultraviolet radiation hasnot been verified. Use of an electron beam to cure the acrylatemonomers, oligomers, and blends or thin coati

29、ngs made fromthem, including inks, has not been verified using this methodand cannot be assumed.6. Interferences6.1 The degree to which the results of this procedureaccurately measure the volatiles emitted is absolutely depen-dent upon proper cure during the test procedure. Althoughovercure will hav

30、e little or no effect upon measured volatiles,undercure may lead to erroneously high values. To minimizevariability in the cure conditions, an ultraviolet source provid-ing a given irradiance in a specific spectral region and anexposure energy is specified as is a photoinitiator and concen-tration.6

31、.2 The presence of strong ultraviolet absorbing non-acrylate species such as pigments and ultraviolet blockers caninterfere with the ability of this test procedure to accuratelymeasure volatiles. These additives are designed to absorb,reflect, luminesce, or scatter visible or ultraviolet radiation.S

32、uch additives interfere with the proper cure of materials testedusing this method and are to be avoided.6.3 Photoinitiators are strong ultraviolet absorbers but theirpresence is required for proper curing.7.
