A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This

3、 test method covers procedures for determining the weight mass of coating on iron or steel sheet, wire, and otherarticles in which the coating is zinc or a zinc alloy, such as zinc-5 % aluminum (including zinc-5 % aluminum-mischmetal andzinc-5 % aluminum-0.1 % magnesium), zinc-aluminum-magnesium (in

4、cluding zinc-5 to 9 % aluminum-magnesium and zinc-9 to13 % aluminum-magnesium) or 55 % aluminum-zinc.

17、coatedarticles frequently provide for different classes of coating so that the purchaser can select the coating weight mass most suitableto his needs.4. Reagents4.1 Purity of ReagentsReagent grade chemicals shall be used in all tests. Unless otherwise indicated, it is intended that allreagents shall

18、 conform to the specifications of the Committee on Analytical Reagents of the American Chemical Society, wheresuch specifications are available.3 Other grades may be used, provided it is first ascertained that the reagent is of sufficiently highpurity to permit its use without lessening the accuracy

19、 of the determination.4.2 Purity of WaterWater used to prepare chemical solutions shall be reagent water as defined by Type IV of SpecificationD1193.4.3 Antimony Trichloride SolutionDissolve 20 g of Sb2O3 or 32 g of SbCl3 in 1000 mL of HCl (sp gr 1.18 to 1.19).4.4 Hydrochloric Acid (sp gr 1.18 to 1.

20、19)Concentrated hydrochloric acid (HCl).4.5 Hydrochloric AcidAntimony Trichloride SolutionAdd 5 mL of antimony trichloride solution to 100 mL of HCl (sp gr1.18 to 1.19).4.6 Hydrochloric Acid (1 + 1)Mix 500 mL of HCl (sp gr 1.18 to 1.19) with 500 mL of reagent water and cool to roomtemperature.4.7 Su

21、lfuric Acid (25 + 75)Mix 250 mL of H2SO4 (sp gr 1.84) with 750 mL of reagent water and cool to room temperature.NOTE 1It is advisable to use an inhibitor with acid solution (for example, Hexamethylamine Tetramine or similar) at the concentration level accordingto the manufacturers recommendations to

22、 prevent attack of the substrate.5. Hazards5.1 WarningSmall amounts of the poisonous gas stibine (SbH3) may be evolved during the stripping process using thehydrochloric acid-antimony trichloride method. Hydrochloric acid fumes are present, and hydrogen gas is evolved in the strippingprocess. Theref

23、ore, the test should be performed under conditions of adequate ventilation. A fume hood is recommended for largenumbers of samples or where the test is to be carried out frequently over extended periods of time.5.2 WarningMixing of sulfuric acid with water could result in severe injuries if not prop

24、erly done. Mixing must be done byslowly adding sulfuric acid to water due to the heat generated and possible splashing. Under no circumstances should the waterbe added to the acid. The mixing should be performed under an acid fume hood.6. Sampling6.1 Zinc-Coated SheetsSamples for weight mass of coat

25、ing determination shall be secured in accordance with SpecificationsA653/A653M, A792/A792M, A875/A875M, A1046/A1046M, A1057/A1057Mor, A1063/A1063M, or A1079/A1079M depend-ing on the type of coating.NOTE 2For convenience in calculating test results in inch-pound units, the specimen should have an are

26、a of 5.08 in.2 of sheet (2.25 6 0.01-in. squareor 2.54 6 0.01 in. in diameter). The weight mass of coating in grams on a specimen of that area is numerically equal to the weight mass of coatingin ounces per square foot of sheet. For results to be reported in metric units, the specimen should have an

27、 area of 3330 mm2 of sheet (57.7 6 0.1-mmsquare or 65.1 6 0.1 mm in diameter).6.2 Zinc-Coated WireSamples shall be secured as designated in the appropriate specification. The specimen of wire may beof any length over 12 in. 305 mm, but preferably about 24 in. 609 mm. Where a continuous length is not

28、 available, shorterlengths totaling over 12 in. 300 mm, but preferably about 24 in. 600 mm, shall be used. Since the density of the steel is known0.283 lb/in.3 7830 kg/m3, it is not necessary to use a specific length of specimen.6.3 Zinc-Coated Articles Other Than Sheet or WireSamples for weight mas

29、s of coating determination shall be secured asdesignated in the appropriate specification. Except as otherwise provided, the specimens should have a minimum area of 3 in.2(2000 mm2) of zinc-coated surface. For very small items, several pieces may have to be stripped to obtain the minimum area.6.3.1

30、In the case of threaded articles, such as bolts and screws, the determination shall be made on a portion of the articles thatdoes not include any thread.7. Procedure7.1 Strip the zinc coating from the specimens by using one of the following methods: hydrochloric acid (1 + 1), hydrochloricacid-antimo

31、ny trichloride solution, or sulfuric acid (25 + 75). For zinc alloy coatings containing less than 90 % zinc, the strippingshall be done using hydrochloric acid (1 + 1) or sulfuric acid (25 + 75).3 “Reagent Chemicals, American Chemical Society Specifications,” Am.

33、nse with alcohol, and dry thoroughly.7.3 Determine the weight mass of the specimens individually to the nearest 0.01 g, except for articles other than sheet or wirewith a specimen weight mass greater than 125 g, determine the weight mass to at least the nearest 0.1 g. After determining theweight mas

34、s, immerse each specimen singly in the stripping solution and allow to remain until the violent evolution of hydrogenhas ceased, and only a few bubbles are being evolved. This requires about 15 to 30 s, except in the case of sherardized coatings,which require a somewhat longer time. The same solutio

35、n may be used repeatedly until the time required for stripping becomesinconveniently long. The temperature of the stripping solution shall at no time exceed 100F 38C. After stripping, wash thespecimens by scrubbing them under running water, dip in hot water, and wipe or blow dry. Determine the weigh

36、t mass of thespecimens again, to the same precision as in the initial determination.7.4 Sheet SpecimensWhen measuring the total coating weight mass on both sides, or the single side coating weight masson each side, determine the area of sheet (one surface) to the nearest 0.01 in.2 5 mm2. If specimen

37、s were prepared to thedimensions as provided in Note 2, they shall be presumed to have an area of 5.08 in.2 3330 mm2. When it is not possible todetermine the area accurately, as in specimens from corrugated sheets, the thickness of the stripped sheet shall be determined tothe nearest 0.001 in. 0.01

38、mm.7.4.1 When determining the coating weight mass on one side of sheet material, use the procedure described in 7.3, except usea “stop-off” to protect one side from the stripping medium. Acid-resistant paints or lacquers, acid-resistant tape, or mechanicaldevices fastened to the test specimen are ex

39、amples of commonly used “stop-off” materials. Apply the “stop-off” to the specimenafter the initial determination of weight mass and remove before the second determination of weight mass. Because of thepossibility of moisture absorption during the stripping process, the “stop-off” must not be on the

40、 specimen during either weightmass determinations. Determine the coating weight mass on the second side subsequently without a “stop-off” on the first side.7.5 Wire SpecimensDetermine the diameter of the stripped wire to the nearest 0.001 in. 0.01 mm by taking the average oftwo measurements at right

41、 angles to each other.7.6 Specimens Other Than Sheet or WireDetermine the total coated area of the original specimen to the nearest 0.01 in.2 5mm2. Alternatively, for specimens of uniform thickness of base metal, such as a piece of plate or pipe, determine the averagethickness of the stripped specim
