Summary of Test Methods3.1 Both of the

9、 two test methods described subject thecoating on the test specimen to electrical stress in a highlyconductive, alkaline electrolyte. Electrical stress is obtainedeither by means of a sacrificial magnesium anode or from animpressed current system. The coating is perforated beforestarting the test.3.

10、1.1 In Method A, a magnesium anode is used with noelectrical monitoring during the test period. The results aredetermined by physical examination after the test period isconcluded.3.1.2 In Method B, either a magnesium anode or an im-pressed current system may be used. Electrical instrumentationis pr

11、ovided for measuring the current in the cell circuit. Theelectrical potential is also measured, and upon conclusion ofthe test period, the test specimen is physically examined.3.1.3 In both test methods physical examination is con-ducted by comparing the extent of loosened or disbondedcoating at the

12、 perforations in the immersed area with extent ofloosened or disbonded coating at a new test hole in the coatingmade in an area that was not immersed.4. Significance and Use4.1 Breaks or holidays in pipe coatings may expose the pipeto possible corrosion, since after a pipe has been installedundergro

13、und, the surrounding earth will be more or lessmoisture-bearing and it constitutes an effective electrolyte.Damage to pipe coating is almost unavoidable during trans-portation and construction. Normal soil potentials as well asapplied cathodic protection potentials may cause loosening ofthe coating,

While apparently loosened coatingand cathod

17、ic holidays may not result in corrosion, this testprovides accelerated conditions for loosening to occur andtherefore gives a measure of resistance of coatings to this typeof action.4.2 The effects of the test may be evaluated by eitherphysical examination or monitoring the current drawn by thetest

18、specimen and both of these two. Usually there is nocorrelation between the two methods of evaluation but bothmethods are significant. Physical examination consists ofassessing the effective contact of the coating with the metalsurface in terms of observed differences in the relative adhesivebond. It

19、 is usually found that the electrically stressed areapropagates from the holiday to a boundary where the loosenedcoating leaves off for the more effective contact or bondattributed to an original condition throughout the specimenbefore electrical stressing was applied.Assumptions associatedwith test

20、 results include the following:4.2.1 Attempting to loosen or disbond the coating at a newtest hole made in the coating in an area that was not immersedrepresents maximum adhesion or bond as measured by thelifting technique used, and that the same lifting technique canbe used at a test hole that was

21、immersed thereby providing ameans of comparing relative resistance to lifting.4.2.2 Any relatively lesser bonded area at the immersed testholes in the coating was caused by electrical stressing and wasnot attributable to an anomaly in the application process.Ability to resist disbondment is a desire

22、d quality on a com-parative basis, but disbondment per se in this test is notnecessarily an adverse indication. The virtue of this test is thatall dielectric type coatings now in common use will disbond tosome degree thus providing a means of comparing one coatingwith another. Bond strength is more

23、important for properfunctioning of some coatings than others and the same mea-sured disbondment for two different coating systems may notrepresent equivalent loss of corrosion protection.4.2.3 The amount of current in the test cell is a relativeindicator of the extent of areas requiring protection a

24、gainstcorrosion; however, the current density appearing in this test ismuch greater than that usually required for cathodic protectionin natural, inland soil environments.5.
