16、4. Significance and Use4.1 Test Method D 2047 establishes a compliance criterionrelating static coefficient of friction measurements of flooringsurfaces with human locomotion safety. The compliance crite-rion is based on extensive experiential data from residential,commercial, industrial and institu

17、tional walkway surfacessince 1942.4.2 Polishes and other floor maintenance coatings having astatic coefficient of friction of not less than 0.5, as measured bythis test method, have been recognized as providing nonhaz-ardous walkways.NOTE 1The value of 0.5 meets the requirements for compliance withR

18、ule 5 on “The use of terms slip retardant, slip resistant, or terms ofsimilar import,” of the Proposed Trade Practice Rules for the Floor Waxand Floor Polish Industry as issued by the Federal Trade Commission onMarch 17, 1953.4.3 The 0.5 static coefficient of friction compliance criterionof this tes

19、t method is only appropriate for polish-coatedsurfaces tested in accordance with this machine and testmethod. The use of this compliance criterion with other testmethods, other test instruments, and other surfaces is improper,because they are not a part of the body of experiential dataupon which the

20、 conformance criterion is based.NOTE 2The conformance criteria of this test method may be valid forother surfaces and surface coatings tested by this test method, but this hasnot been substantiated by correlation with experiential data.5. Apparatus5.1 James Machine4See Fig. 1.5.2 Shoe Material5For i

21、nterlaboratory and specificationtesting the shoe material shall be leather, conforming to FederalSpecification KK-L-165C. Other materials commonly em-ployed as footwear sole or heel material may be used (TestMethod F 489). However, it should be understood that the 0.5static coefficient of friction c

22、ompliance criterion value is notrelevant when such materials are substituted for the specifica-tion leather (Notes 2 and 3). To date, compliance criterionvalues for polish interfaces with other shoe materials have notbeen determined with respect to establishing minimum require-ments for nonhazardous

23、 walkways. If a standard rubber shoematerial is required, the test rubber should be in accordancewith Test Method D 1630.NOTE 3The static coefficient of friction measured with elastomericcompositions are frequently as much as 0.3 to 0.5 higher than leather.5.3 SubstrateFor interlaboratory and specif

24、ication testing,OVCT6, wood panels7, or standard ceramic tiles8shall be used.5.3.1 If substrates other than the above standards are to beused, they should be of uniform porosity and free of surfaceirregularities which would interlock the shoe material with thesurface or otherwise impede smooth slidi

25、ng of the shoe overthe film surface.6. Test Surface6.1 For interlaboratory and specification testing of floorpolishes, films on OVCT, wood panels, or ceramic tiles shall beprepared in accordance with Practice D 4103 or Test MethodC 1028, respectively.7. Test Shoe Material7.1 The size of the shoe mat

26、erial used by the apparatus is 3by 3 in. square by 0.25 in. thick (76.2 by 76.2 by 6.4 mm).7.2 For interlaboratory and specification testing, the shoematerial shall be leather manufactured in accordance withFederal Specification KK-L-165C. Cut the 3 by 3-in. (76.2 by76.2 mm) specimen from the center

27、 portion of the hide by anysuitable method. Mark the direction of the grain fibers for laterreference. The alignment of the sides of the test specimen shallbe along the length and width of the hide. Do not compress theleather during cutting. Dress the edges square.57.3 Before use, the specification

28、leather should be equili-brated at 50 %(65 %) relative humidity for one week. Be-tween uses, the leather shoe material should be stored underthese same constant humidity conditions.7.4 Other shoe materials may be used for individual andspecific testing purposes. If rubber is used, a standard rubberc

29、ompound conforming to Test Method D 1630, Section 7.1, isrecommended. It is further recommended that the thickness ofthe shoe material not be greater than 0.25 in. (6.4 mm) or lessthan 0.20 in. (5.1 mm).7.5 Gently sand the inside (flesh) surface of the leather toproduce a uniform thickness. The fina

30、l sanding in this processshould be done by using 400 grit waterproof silicon carbidepaper9affixed to a flat surface to produce a uniform surface formating with the shoe holder. The inside (flesh) and outside(grain) faces of the leather should be parallel to within 0.01 in.(0.25 mm). The inside surfa

31、ce should be free of loose shreds ofleather, grit, and dust.7.6 Cement the flesh side of the leather to the metal shoe(3-in. square flat steel plate) using any suitable adhesive ordouble-sided tape. Orient the leather on the shoe so that theoriginal grain of the leather is parallel to the direction

32、of shoetravel.7.7 To prepare the face of the leather-shoe for interlabora-tory and specification testing, sand the grain face of the leatherwith 400 grit paper using four passes, two parallel to thedirection of shoe travel followed by two perpendicular to the4Assembled, motorized machines are availa

Procedure (See Fig. 1)8.1 Thoroughly check the James Machine is level in alldirections, and correct any mechanical malfunctions to ensurer

41、eliable results (see Practice D 6205).8.2 Attach the chart10to the chart board.8.3 Raise the weights until the strut is perpendicular to thetable and attach the prepared test shoe in the shoe holder.8.4 Before starting the actual test, make a test run in fourmutually perpendicular directions using a

42、 panel of knowncoefficient of friction. Follow the procedure in 8.8. The testresults shall differ by no more than 5 % from the knowncoefficient of friction. A greater deviation indicates the neces-sity to check the alignment of the machine (Practice D 6205).Repeat this process until specified result

43、s are obtained.NOTE 5Finishes of known coefficient of friction are those which haveundergone repeated evaluation by this test method, including round robintests, and which have amassed considerable exposure to pedestrian traffic.Most commerical finishes meet these requirements. Samples and corre-spo

44、nding coefficient of friction values are available from many formulat-ing manufacturers, polymer manufacturers, and other floor finish rawmaterial suppliers.8.5 Use three tiles or panels for each test, obtaining fourreadings on each panel. Rotate the panels 90 between each ofthe four readings so tha

45、t a fresh surface is tested each time anddirectional effects, if any, are cancelled. If there is insufficientfloor finish to coat three panels, tests on one or two panels maybe run, though with the expectation of reduced precision.8.6 Place the panel on the test table in firm contact with theretaini

46、ng bar. Lightly dust the test panel to remove anyextraneous matter.8.7 Carefully place the leather-shoe into the strut yoke andgently lower the entire assembly into contact with the testpanel. Disengage the small hand wheel.8.8 Release the recording pen, making sure it is on the zeroline of the char

47、t.8.9 Move the test table forward at a uniform rate of 60in./min (1524 mm/min), 6 3 in./min (676 mm/min), until theshoe slips and the vertical column drops.The table movementshould be started within 5 s after the contact in 8.7 has beenmade.8.10 After each determination, lift the strut and return th

48、etest table to the start position. Rotate the test panel 90, sandthe leather shoe material in accordance with 7.8, verticallyoffset the recording pen, and repeat steps 8.6 through 8.9.8.11 Record as the static coefficient of friction the point atwhich the horizontal curve made on the chart by the re

49、cordingpen changes to a vertical line. If this point is not sharplydefined at the top of the vertical line, it may be necessary todraw a standard curve with the shoe braced to prevent slippage.Overlay the standard curve on the test curve, and record thepoint at which the test curve first deviates from the standardcurve. Estimate the readings to the nearest 0.01NOTE 6If panels thicker than 0.5 in. (12.7 mm) are to be tested (forexample, concrete or terrazzo slabs), a shim may be required underneaththe gear box frame.
