1、Designation: D 3052 87 (Reapproved 2003)Standard Practice forRating Water-Emulsion Floor Polishes1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 3052; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision

2、. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers the comparison of the performanceof water-emulsion floor polishes on test floors against areference material.

3、 It is applicable to the following types ofpolishes:1.1.1 Wax emulsion polishes,1.1.2 Nonbuffable emulsion polishes,1.1.3 Detergent-resistant emulsion polishes, household type,and1.1.4 Detergent-resistant emulsion polishes, industrial type.1.2 Gloss, leveling, discoloration, traffic marking, slip re

4、sis-tance, and removal ease of these types of floor polishes is ratedin comparison to a reference material. Where applicable,detergent resistance is also evaluated. This method is not to beconsidered as a recommended maintenance procedure.1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardeda

5、s the standard. The values given in parentheses are forinformation only.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine t

7、ficance and Use3.1 When comparing different floor polishes for an actualfield performance, it is important that all surfaces used beprepared in the same way. When this procedure is followed,variations in the test surfaces are minimized.4. Apparatus4.1 Test Tile, OVCT.54.2 Glossmeter, 60The instrumen

8、t and the referencestandards shall conform to the requirements prescribed in TestMethod D 523, using an angle of reflection of 60.4.3 Floor Machine.5. Procedure5.1 The preferred substrate shall be Official Vinyl Compo-sition Tile.5.2 The test floor shall include both dark (black) and light(white) co

9、lored tiles laid out so that one half of the panel is allwhite and the other half is all black.5.3 The minimum test panel size for each polish tested shallbe 3 ft (0.9 m) in width and 3 ft in length.5.4 Prepare all of the test panels with scrub-cleaned newtiles, or strip completely of dirt and old w

10、ax, rinse thoroughlyand dry before application of the test polishes. Under nocircumstances should comparative tests be made on new versusold tiles. Similarly, where old tiles are employed, care shouldbe taken to employ tiles or panels with approximately equiva-lent traffic history.5.5 Mask a small p

11、ortion of a black tile prior to polishing soas to provide an unpolished control area. The masking is toremain during the entire traffic period.5.6 Take glossmeter readings on the clean and dry centerfour panels (two light tiles and two dark tiles) with a 60glossmeter prior to application of the poli

12、sh.5.7 Apply the test polish and the reference (standard) polishequally to the same test panel in such a manner that each polishcovers half of the black tiles and half of the white tiles. Atypical panel is illustrated in Fig. 1. An alternative approach isto apply each polish to a separate panel.5.8

13、Apply each of the test polishes to the test panels at a rateof 1500 to 2000 ft2/gal (37 to 49 m2/L), using any suitable andcontrolled procedure. This spreading rate is equivalent to:0.06 to 0.08 fluid oz/ft21.9 to 2.5 mL/ft21This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D21 on Polishesan

17、 or clean bristle brushattachment 30 min after the second coat is apparently dry.Consider the small area and do not over buff. Do not buff anyother polish types considered in this method at this time.5.11 Allow each test panel to dry 1 h before being exposedto traffic. (Environmental conditions outs

18、ide the norm or 70 to90F (21.1 to 32.2C) and above 70 % relative humidity maynecessitate longer periods of drying time.) Again take glossreadings on the four center tiles prior to exposure to traffic.Comparatively rate the films visually for leveling, for anydiscoloration tendencies, and for slip re

19、sistance followingCSMA Bulletin 245-70. In the instance of the wax emulsionpolishes, make the leveling and gloss ratings after buffing.5.12 Daily maintenance should include dry brushing orsweeping.6.

The total wet contact time of thealkaline cleaner solution with test panel should be controlledwithina3to5minperiod.NOTE 1The composition of the alkaline

An optional method based upon percent reductionin gloss arrived at by calculation with the 60 gloss values maybe used.NOTE 2Percent loss of gloss can be calculated from gloss measure-ments before and after cleaning. The diffe

36、rence between the loss of glossof the sample versus that of the control may be related to detergentresistance. Thus, if the test sample exhibits 5 to 10 % more loss of glossthan the control, it would receive a rating of 1. If the greater lossexceeded 10 %, it would receive a 2 rating, and if the gre

37、ater loss wereless than 5 %, the rating would be 0. Conversely, if the control sampleexhibited 5 to 10 % more loss of gloss than the test sample, the test samplewould receive a rating of +1, etc.8.7 Mask a second small section of a black tile following thethird cleaning and rinsing. The masked area

Spread the solution over the panel and allow toremain for 2 min after which use a moderate scrubbing actionto strip the film.8.9 Rinse the panel and wipe dry with a cloth.8.10 Make visual observations on the black tiles as to filmremoval. Remove the masking from the two control areas forpurposes o

40、f comparison, when making this final observation.Sixty-degree glossmeter readings on the stripped tiles mayprove helpful. Hand buffing a small area with a soft cloth issuggested as a supplemental aid in determining if stripping iscomplete. If no appreciable increase in gloss is achieved, it canbe co

41、ncluded that the film has been removed.9.

Rinse the cleaned floor tho

42、roughly, allow todry, and then machine buff lightly. The total wet contact-timeof the cleaner solution with the test panel should be controlledwithina3to5-min period. This cleaning, rinsing, and buffingprocedure is repeated after every 4 days of traffic, or whennecessary. When more than 12 days of t

43、raffic are desired,employ additional evaluation sheets with changes to indicate4th, 5th cleaning, etc.9.2 Evaluate the test panels as follows:9.2.1 One hour after application, visual and 60 gloss andslip resistance following CSMA Bulletin 245-70.9.2.2 After each 4-day traffic period, following dry s

The masked area will serve as apolished, detergent-washed and trafficked control.9.2.8 Power strip the test panels after the fourth cleaningwith a stripping pad or

48、brush and with the recommendeddilution of an ammoniated wax stripper or the neutral detergentsolution employed for cleaning to which is added 2 cups (16 fl.oz. or 473 mL) of 5 % NH3OH per g of diluted cleaner. Spreadthe stripping solution over the panel and allow to remain for 2min after which start

Remove the masking from the two control areasfor purposes of comparison, when making this final observa-tion. Sixty-degree glossmeter readings on the stripped tilesmay prove helpful. Hand buffing a small area with a soft clothis suggested as a supplemental aid in determining if strippingis complete. If no appreciable increase in gloss is achieved, itcan be concluded that the film has been removed.10. Report10.1
