1、Designation: D3618 05 (Reapproved 2010)Standard Test Method forDetection of Lead in Paint and Dried Paint Films1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D3618; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of

2、last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method is intended as a screening test todetermine if the solids in a paint contain more than 0.5 % lead.The

3、 test described barely detects the presence of 0.4 % butgives a definite positive result at the 0.5 % level.NOTE 1This test method may be used to detect the presence of leadat concentrations higher or lower than 0.5 % by making appropriatechanges in the specimen size and reagent quantities specified

4、.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 Paints giving an unexpected positive or questionableresult should be analyzed quantitatively for lead, using TestMethod D3335.1.4 This standard does not purport to address

5、 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 the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.

Summary of Test Method3.

7、1 The sample of liquid paint or dried film is prepared bydry ashing a weighed specimen at 475 to 500C. The ash isextracted with hot sodium hydroxide solution and a drop of theextract is transferred to filter paper. Lead present is oxidized tolead peroxide with bromine water, then treated with “tetra

8、base”to produce a blue quinoidal salt. Known amounts of lead areadded to standard paints that are concurrently tested to providea base for comparison.4. Significance and Use4.1 The permissible level of heavy metals in certain coat-ings is specified by governmental regulatory agencies. This testmetho

Using a2-mL glass syringe, add 1.0 mL of the appropriate 200-ppmstandard working solution (solvent-reducible or water-reducible) to one of the crucibles or beakers, and 1.8 mL to theother.NOTE 5The standard paint to which has been added 1.0 mL ofstandard working solution contains approximately 0.
