Terminology2.1 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:2.1.1 T-benda description of the severity of a bend interms of the thickness (T) of the sheet to which the coating hasbeen applied; as used in this test method, the T-bend rating isthe minimum
6、 number of thicknesses of metal around which thecoated sheet is bent (Fig. 1), or if bent around a die, the numberof thicknesses of metal equivalent to the diameter of the die toachieve no fracture or removal of the coating.3. Summary of Test Method3.1 Prepainted panels are bent 180 around progressi
7、velymore thicknesses of metal or larger diameter dies, the end pointbeing when failures no longer occur. The panels are examinedat low magnification (5 to 103) after each bend for fracture ofthe coating (cracking) and, for loss of adhesion pickoff, bymeans of a tape pull-off test.4. Significance and
8、 Use4.1 Organic coatings on precoated sheet are subjected tostresses when fabricated into products by roll forming, brakebending, or other deformation processes. These stresses canexceed the flexibility or adhesive strength of the coating,resulting in fracture of the coating, exposing the substrate,
9、 orloss of adhesion to the substrate. This test is a means ofevaluating the ability of a coating system to withstand thestresses of fabrication.4.2 The bend direction, whether the axis of bend is across oralong the rolling diameter of the metal, and the temperature ofthe specimen when it is bent aff

Procedure6.1 Bending the Coated Specimen Around Itself:6.1.1 The coated specimen shall be at least 2 in. (50 mm)across the bend direction, by
15、 a length sufficient to make therequired number of bends. A 2 by 6-in. (50 by 150-mm) size isconvenient. The specimen shall be at 62F of the temperatureagreed on.NOTE 1A triangle-shaped specimen (Fig. 3) has been found conve-nient for making T-bend tests. This shape leaves a portion of each bendexpo
16、sed for later examination and for a permanent record.6.1.2 Secure about 0.5 to 0.75 in. (13 to 20 mm) of one endof the specimen in a vise or holding jig as shown in Fig. 1.Bend the free end of the specimen 90 in a smooth and uniformmanner so that the coating is on the outside of the specimenafter it
17、 is bent.6.1.3 Continue to bend the specimen until the bent end canbe inserted in the jaws of the vise. Tighten the vise to completethe 180 bend, which is called an OT bend. Take care to tightenthe vise sufficiently so that the apex of the bend is as flat as canbe reasonably achieved.6.1.4 Examine t
18、he bend using a hand lens or low-powermicroscope for cracks in the coating.6.1.5 Apply pressure-sensitive tape2along the bend. Rubthe tape flat; then, holding the specimen firmly, remove the tapewith a rapid movement at an angle of 180 to the bend surface.Examine the tape for coating removed from th
19、e surface of thespecimen (that is, pickoff). In the case of a coated steelspecimen (for example, galvanized steel), examine the tape todetermine whether pickoff is between the organic coating andthe metallic surface or between the metallic coating and thebase steel.6.1.6 Secure the bent end of the s
20、pecimen in the vise andbend the free end 90. Continue to bend the free end around thefirst (OT) bend to complete a 180 bend, and tighten in the viseas before. This makes a 1T bend (Fig. 1). Examine undermagnification and by taping for cracking and pickoff, as withthe OT bend.6.1.7 Repeat this proced
21、ure, making a 2T, 3T, etc., bendsuntil no cracking or pickoff occurs.6.2 Bending the Coated Specimen Around a Die:6.2.1 The coated specimen shall be at least 2 in. (50 mm)across the bend direction.6.2.2 Secure the specimen and bending die in a vise orholding jig (Fig. 2). Bend the specimen 180 aroun
22、d the die ina smooth and uniform manner.6.2.3 Examine the bend for cracking as in 6.1.4 and for lossof adhesion as in 6.1.5.6.2.4 Express the T-bend to no cracking or no pickoff as thenumber of thickness around which the metal is being bentequal to the thickness of the die.7.
