A number
2、 in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1NOTEDuplicate wording was deleted in 18.1 in July 2015.1. Scope1.1 This guide describes the practical considerations thatmay be used to determine the co

While the focus ofthis guide is on latex sealants, the paint or coating may be ofany composition.5. Significance and Use5.1 The intent of this guide is to prov
9、ide the reader withinformation concerning possible reasons for paint failureswhere the paint is used over a latex sealant.CONSIDERATIONS6. Temperature6.1 Since standard testing is usually performed at “roomtemperature,” about 22C, this would be considered the idealtemperature for application and cur
10、ing. As the temperaturedeviates from this ideal, the “science” of drying changes in asmuch as lower temperature results in slower drying and fasterdrying occurs at elevated temperatures.7. Percent Relative Humidity7.1 In waterborne sealants, the humidity directly affects theability of the system to
11、lose water. Standard testing is typicallydone at 50 % RH, which allows for an acceptable evaporationrate. Temperature and humidity variations in climatic regionsand fluctuations through the application and cure will havesignificant impacts.8. Type of Paint8.1 The type of paint applied to the sealant
12、 has an effect onhow well it may handle dimensional changes, adhere to thesealant or dry during the curing of the sealant.

15、s1content (PVC) (PVC CPVC) will withstand the mostchange while a hard resin (high Tg) at high PVC will be theleast forgiving. Broadly speaking, high gloss, interior paintsrepresent the former while interior flat paints represent thelatter.9. Type of Sealant9.1 The sealant will have an effect on adhe
16、sion of the paintfilm, the degree of change in geometry of the paint film andchanges in color and gloss. However, generally speaking, thesechanges are difficult to quantify by the type and quality ofsealant.10. Cure Time10.1 The degree of sealant cure may affect the time to paint,the compatibility o
17、f the applied paint with the sealant, and thedry time of the applied paint. An uncured sealant may reactwith the paint ingredients. Cracking of the paint film may occurwhen the sealant is painted before curing of the sealant bead iscomplete due to subsequent shrinkage of the underlyingsealant. Addit
18、ionally, migration of sealant components to thebead surface may affect adhesion.11. Sealant Geometry/Tooling11.1 Use of a backing material usually helps to decreasesealant cracking and thereby also usually decrease paintfailure.12. Method of Paint Application12.1 The manner in which the paint is app
19、lied, that is, roller,brush or sprayer, may affect the thickness of the paint that isinitially applied. Some rollers and brushes, especially low costapplicators, may lose bristles or leave brush strokes or surfaceirregularities in the paint film, which may promote prematurefailures.13. Substrate Eff
20、ects13.1 The porosity, composition and cleanliness of the sub-strate affect the cure of both sealant and paint. A more poroussubstrate will wick away water or solvent and shorten the paintcuring period. A difficult to adhere to substrate, or one thatconsists of material containing low molecular weig
21、ht oils,plasticizers, etc., will affect film formation and wetting, andmay induce gloss and color change.14. Type of Construction14.1 This affects the substrates and amount of movementthat a paint/sealant system may be subjected to.15. Lot to Lot Variation15.1 A number of factors contribute to lot t
22、o lot variation inboth sealants and paints. Whenever changing either, it may beprudent to test compatibility.OBSERVATIONS16. Cracking16.1 This may be simple cracking of the paint film or maymanifest itself as a crack in the sealant. The degree and amountof cracking between the sealant and the paint
23、will affect theacceptability of this condition. Severe cracking of the sealantmay overwhelm the crack bridging ability of the paint film.17. Color Change17.1 This may be caused by the leaching of material fromeither the sealant or substrate into the paint and changing itsappearance. This may also be
24、 caused by the paint being moresusceptible to dirt pick-up, especially in areas where airbornedirt is prevalent.18. Gloss18.1 Plasticizer migration may cause the paint to develop ahigher gloss over time.19. Keywords19.1 cracking; latex sealant; paintASTM International takes no position respecting th
