Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determination of the ratio ofcorner thickness (see 3.1.3) to face thickness (see 3.1.4)ofpowder coatings applied to a

3、specific face thickness by dippingpreheated square bars into aerated powder and curing thecoating using predetermined conditions.NOTE 1The property of corner coverage has also been referred to as“edge coverage,” though the latter is not recommended. There arewidespread misunderstandings and expectat

4、ions relative to the term “edgecoverage.” This test is performed on a steel bar having square corners andthe results do not necessarily relate to edges that are sharper, that is, burrs.A coating that has measurable corner coverage may still not protectsharper edges from corrosion or provide the elec

The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility

The equipment consists of an open top chamber whichhas a porous plate for a false bottom. Air is introduced

13、 underthe plate at a low pressure so that it filters through the porousplate and uniformly suspends the particles contained in thechamber.5.2 Micrometer Caliper25.4 mm (1 in.), in accordancewith Method C of Test Methods D 374.5.3 Oven, with forced convection capable of maintainingthe specified tempe

17、 of rust and dirt, and which havebeen washed with a clean solvent to remove any traces of oilysubstances. Bars may be reused if the coating used in aprevious test has been completely removed without marring thesurfaces or corners of the bars. Appropriate methods ofremoval include the use of strippin

Test Specimens7.1 The test specimens shall be the steel bars in accordancewith 5.4, coated with powder to form a smooth, contin

Procedure8.1 Measure and record the distance across both flat sur-faces and both diagonals (A, B, C, and D, Fig. 2) of the fourtests bars to the nearest 0.0025 mm (0.0001 in.) at a point 38mm (112 in.) from the bottom of the bars at 23 6 1C inaccordance with

20、 Method C of Test Methods D 374.8.2 Preheat the four test bars by hanging them in the ovenwith a wire through the hole in the bar. Heat at the prescribedtemperature for 30 min, or until the bars are at the desiredtemperature (as agreed upon between the purchaser and seller).8.3 Fill the bed with fre

Calculation9.1 Average the distance measurements across the two flatsurfaces A and B and also the two diago

30、D 2967 - 02a) that may impact the use of this standard. (Approved June 1, 2007.)(1) Changed the term powder plastic coatings to powdercoatings to reflect the fact that the method can be used for allknown powder coatings.(2) Removed dip process in 8.4, as there is no known data tojustify the dip rate
