Summary of Test Method4.1 Abrasive is allowed to fall from a specified heightthrough a guide tube onto a co

10、ated panel until the substratebecomes visible. The amount of abrasive per unit film thick-ness is reported as the abrasion resistance of the coating on thepanel. Silica sand or silicon carbide may be used, as specified.5. Significance and Use5.1 Silica sand produces a slower rate of abrasion fororga

11、nic coatings than that provided by silicon carbide. Forsome types of coatings, it also provides greater differentiation.5.2 The abrasion resistance scales produced by the twomethods differ, but the methods provide approximately thesame rankings of coatings for abrasion resistance.5.3 Each of the met

Apparatus and Materials6.1 Abrasion Tester, as illustrated in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2.Agatefor starting the flow of abrasive is lo

17、cated near the top of theguide tube. It consists of a metal disk inserted into a slit in theside of the guide tube with a collar covering the slit. The guidetube shall be firmly supported in a vertical position over asuitable receptacle, which shall contain a support for holdingthe coated panel at a

18、n angle of 45 to the vertical. The openingof the tube is directly above the area to be abraded and thedistance from the tube to the coated surface face at the nearestpoint is 25 mm (1 in.) when measured in the vertical direction.The base of the apparatus shall be fitted with adjusting screwsfor prop

19、erly aligning the equipment.6.2 Standard AbrasiveNatural silica sand from the St.Peters or Jordan sandstone deposits (located in the centralUnited States) shall be considered standard when graded asfollows after 5 min of continuous sieving.0 % retained on a No. 16 (1.18 mm) sieveMaximum 15 % retaine

20、d on a No. 20 (850 m) sieveMinimum 80 % retained on a No. 30 (600 m) sieveMaximum 5 % passing a No. 30 (600 m) sieveThe sand is characterized by its roundness of grains and hasa silicon dioxide content greater than 99 %. Use the sievesdescribed in Specification E11.NOTE 1The abrading qualities of sa

21、nd obtained from different sourcesmay differ slightly even though the sand meets the sieve requirements.Therefore, for maximum precision of test results, purchaser and sellershould use sand from the same source.7. Test Specimens7.1 Apply uniform coatings of the material to be tested to aplane, rigid

22、 surface such as a metal or glass panel. Prepare aminimum of two coated panels for the material.7.2 Cure the coated panels under the conditions of humidityand temperature agreed upon between the purchaser and seller.NOTE 2The coatings should be applied in accordance with PracticesD823, or as agreed

23、upon between the purchaser and the seller.NOTE 3The thickness of the dry coatings should be measured inaccordance with Test Methods D1005, D1186 or D1400.8. Standardization8.1 Pour a quantity of standard sand into the funnel andexamine the sand stream falling from the lower end of theguide tube. Ali

24、gn the apparatus by means of the adjustingscrews in the base until the inner concentrated core of the sandstream falls in the center of the flow when viewed at twopositions at 90 to each other. Introduce a measured volume ofsand (2000 6 10 mL is a convenient amount) and determinethe time of efflux.

25、The rate of flow shall be 2 L of sand in 21to 23.5 s.8.2 Secure a trial panel in the testing position, as describedin 6.1, and introduce the sand in increments until a spot 4 mm(532 in.) in diameter is worn through to the base material.

26、n Tester,” ASTMBulletin, No. 143, December 1946 , pp. 1822.FIG. 1 Apparatus for Falling Sand Abrasion TestNOTE 1All dimensions are given in inches. 1 in. = 25.4 mm.FIG. 2 Design Details of Abrasion Test ApparatusD968 05 (2010)2overall abraded area shall be elliptical in shape, about 1 in. (25mm) in

27、width and 30 mm (114 in.) in length. The center of thearea of maximum abrasion shall be on the centerline throughthe longer axis of the abraded pattern and within 14 to 17 mm(916 to1116 in.) of the top edge. Slight final adjustment of theinstrument may be required to center the abrasion spot in thep

28、attern. A final check on alignment is made by determining theamount of sand that passes through a 4-mm (532-in.) hole in ametal panel placed directly under the tube. Place a containerunder the hole in the panel and allow a weighed amount of sandto pass through the tube onto the panel. Weigh the amou

29、nt ofsand that passed through the hole into the container. Theapparatus can be considered to be in calibration if the amountof sand that passed through the hole is 90 to 93 % of theamount of sand that impinged on the panel.9. Conditioning9.1 Unless otherwise agreed upon between purchaser andseller,

30、condition the coated test panels for at least 24 h at 23 62C and 50 6 5 % relative humidity. Conduct the test in thesame environment or immediately on removal.10. Procedure10.1 Mark off on each coated panel three circular areas,each approximately 1 in. (25 mm) in diameter, and so arrangedthat each c

31、an be properly positioned in the panel support of theabrasion tester. Measure the thickness of the coating by TestMethods D1005, D1186,orD1400 in at least three locations ineach area. Record the mean of each set of measurements as thethickness of the coating over the respective area.10.2 After condi

32、tioning, secure the coated panel in the testeras described in 6.1. Adjust the panel so that one of the markedareas will be centered under the guide tube. Pour standard sand,measured volumetrically, into the funnel. Withdraw the gateand allow the sand to flow through the guide tube and impingeon the

33、coated panel. Collect the sand in a container located atthe bottom of the tester. Repeat this operation until a 4-mm(532-in.) diameter area of the coating has worn through to thesubstrate.Aconvenient increment of sand to employ during thetest is 2000 6 10 mL. As the end-point is approached,increment

34、s of 200 6 2 mL may be introduced into the funnel.NOTE 4When the gate is withdrawn from the guide tube, make certainthat a collar covers the slit opening in the tube.10.3 Abrade each of the remaining marked-off areas of thecoated panel as outlined in 10.2.NOTE 5Check the alignment of the guide tube

35、at frequent intervals toensure that the concentrated inner core of the sand stream is falling in thecenter of the flow.NOTE 6After 25 passes through the apparatus, resieve the sand witha No. 30 sieve to remove fines. Replace the sand after 50 passes.10.4 Repeat 10.1-10.3 on at least one additional p

36、anelcoated with the material under test.11. Calculation11.1 For each area of the coated panel tested, calculate theabrasion resistance, A, in litres per mil from the followingequation:A 5 V/T (1)where:V = volume of abrasive used, L (to one decimal place) andT = thickness of coating, mils (to one dec

37、imal place).11.2 Calculate the mean of the abrasion resistance valuesobtained for different areas of the coated panel and the meanvalue of the replicate panels.12. Report12.1 Report the following information for each coated paneltested:12.1.1 Temperature and humidity during curing and at thetime of

38、testing,12.1.2 Type and source of abrasive,12.1.3 Litres of abrasive used for each area tested,12.1.4 Coating thickness in mils for each area tested,12.1.5 Abrasion resistance values for each area tested,12.1.6 Mean abrasion resistance for each coated paneltested, and12.1.7 Mean abrasion resistance

39、and range of the replicatecoated panels.13. Precision713.1 On the basis of an interlaboratory test of this testmethod in which three laboratories tested four types of coatingsdiffering in their abrasion resistance, the within-laboratorycoefficient of variation was found to be 9 % with 22 df and theb

40、etween-laboratories coefficient of variation 35 % with 7 df.Based on these coefficients, the following criteria should beused for judging the acceptability of results at the 95 %confidence level.13.1.1 RepeatabilityTwo results, each the mean of threeruns, obtained by the same operator should be cons

41、ideredsuspect if they differ by more than 25 % of their mean value.13.1.2 ReproducibilityTwo results, each the mean of threeruns, obtained by operators in different laboratories should beconsidered suspect if they differ by more than 118 % of theirmean value.NOTE 7The reproducibility of this test is

42、 improved substantially whenrankings of the coatings by magnitude of abrasion resistance are used. Inthe interlaboratory test for evaluating precision, all laboratories ranked thecoatings in the same order.13.2 BiasAt the time of the study, there was no acceptedreference material suitable for determ

43、ining bias for this testmethod, therefore no statement on bias is being made.METHOD BFALLING SILICON CARBIDE TEST14.
