6、D 3522 Test Method for Applied Coating Wax and Impreg-nating (Saturating) Wax in Corrugated Board Facing23. Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 wax loadingthe weight of wax present primarily asa surface film but including the minor part embedded in thesurface fibers of corrugated board. It is expressed

7、 as weight perunit area, usually in grams per square metre or pounds perthousand square feet of board.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 The amount of wax applied to corrugated board bymeans of a curtain coater is determined by attaching a foldedsheet of paper to production corrugated board, running theco

8、mbination through the curtain coater, and subsequentlydetermining the applied weight of wax on the sheet of paper.5. Significance and Use5.1 Wax coatings are applied to corrugated board to providea barrier against moisture or other penetrants or to provideimproved appearance or abrasion resistance.

9、These functionalproperties are influenced by the amount of wax present on thesurface.5.2 During curtain coating operations, major portions of thewax will congeal on the surface, while a minor portion willpenetrate and become embedded in the fibers of the facing.This method measures the total weight

10、of wax applied to theboard. The amount actually remaining on the surface of thecorrugated board can be determined by Test Method D 3521.5.3 The uniformity of application of wax film across thewidth of the curtain coater may also be determined using thistechnique by passing test combinations (blanks)

11、 under thecurtain at various locations, that is, left side, center, right side.6. Apparatus6.1 Sample Trimming EquipmentA suitable trimmingboard or template arrangement equipped with a razor edgeknife for even cutting of specimens to the required size withparallel edges.6.2 Measuring Rule, steel-edg

12、ed, for measuring the size ofspecimens to within 0.5 mm.6.3 Test PaperAny good quality typing bond with about25 % cotton fibers approximately 200 by 300 mm (812 by 11in.).6.4 Pressure-Sensitive Tape, to attach the test paper to thecorrugated carrier board.6.5 Carrier BoardProduction uncoated corruga

13、ted board,not less than 450 by 750 mm (18 by 30 in.). Die cut, slotted,and printed box blanks are acceptable.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D02 onPetroleum Products and Lubricants and is the direct responsibility of SubcommitteeD02.10 on Properties of Petroleum Wax.Cur

Sampling and Test Spec

16、imens7.1 Prepare test blanks by folding the 200 by 300-mm (812by 11-in.) sheets of the test paper in half in the 300-mmdimension. Assure that all folded edges are approximatelysuperimposed on each other. Crease the fold firmly with thefingers. Then place the folded sheet about in the center of asuit

17、able piece of corrugated carrier board and tape it firmly tothe board around its entire periphery with pressure-sensitiveadhesive tape.7.2 Prepare duplicate test blanks (carrier boards with at-tached folded sheets as described in 7.1) for each test unit.Prepare a supply of test blanks ahead of time

18、and keep themavailable at the machine for determining the amount of waxapplied.NOTE 2The test sheets do not require preconditioning since the paperis only a carrier for the wax, and variations are eliminated in the weighingprocedure.NOTE 3If the uniformity of application of wax film across the width

19、of the curtain coater is being checked, the folded test sheet can be placednear one of the side edges of the corrugated carrier board to cover themaximum width of curtain. In no case should the test sheet be placedcloser than 150 mm (6 in.) to either side edge of the carrier board.8. Procedure8.1 Pr

20、epare duplicate specimens by running test blanksprepared in 7.1 through the curtain coater in rapid succession.Pass the carrier board through the curtain such that the 450-mm(18-in.) dimension of the carrier board is at right angles to thecurtain.8.2 Place the two corrugated carrier boards with thei

21、r coatedtest specimens on a firm work table with the test specimensfacing upward. Cut out exact portions of the specimensmeasuring 100 by 100 mm, to the nearest 0.5 mm. Use atemplate and cut around the periphery of the template with arazor blade, ensuring that the cut passes cleanly through bothlaye

22、rs of folded paper. Each cut specimen consists, therefore,of a pair of 100 by 100-mm sheets, one having a wax surfaceand the other having no applied wax.8.3 Determine the weights of the waxed and the unwaxedsheets.9. Calculation9.1 For each specimen, record the following data andcalculations for the

23、 total wax coating:C 5 100 A 2 B! (1)where:A = weight of the waxed sheet (weight of paper plus weightof applied wax), g,B = weight of the unwaxed sheet, g, andC = applied wax coating, g/m2= 100 (A B)NOTE 4To convert from grams per square metre to pounds per 1000ft2multiply C 3 0.205.10.

24、eport the weight of wax (average of duplicate speci-mens) in grams per square metre (lb/1000 ft2) as the total waxapplied by a curtain coater.11. Precision11.1 The precision of this test method as determined bystatistical examination of interlaboratory results is as follows:11.1.1 RepeatabilityThe d

25、ifference between two test re-sults, obtained by the same operator with the same apparatusunder constant operating conditions on identical test materialwould, in the long run, in the normal and correct operation ofthe test method, exceed 10 % of the mean only in one case intwenty.NOTE 5The repeatabi
