2、 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 a standardized brushout procedurefor comparing the brush drag of architectural type solvent-borne pain

3、ts.1.2 With slight modifications this test method is also appli-cable to solvent-borne paints.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any,

4、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.2.

Terminology3.1 Definitions: See Paint/Coatings Dictionary3for defini-tion of terms used in this test method.3.1.1 brush-dragresistance encountered when applying acoating by brush.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 A50-mm (2-in.) polyester brush is used to apply the

7、 testpaint on a 1000-cm2(1.076-ft2) test area. The application ismade at a spreading rate of 9.82 m2/L (400 ft2/gal) and iscompleted in 30 to 35 s. The degree of brush drag is ratedsubjectively using a series of standard descriptive termscorresponding to numerical values of 1 to 10. The rank order o

8、fa set of samples is thereby established.5. Significance and Use5.1 As the brush drag of a paint increases, any naturaltendency on the part of the painter to overspread the paint isreduced. When all other factors are held constant, increasedbrush drag will result in greater film thickness with conse

9、quentimprovement in durability and hiding. Conversely, sometimesit might be preferred to have a lesser degree of brush drag foreasier application (that is, the amount of time and effort inapplying a paint to a specific area is reduced with a lesserdegree of brush drag).5.2 This test method provides

10、a standardized brushoutprocedure for the evaluation of brush drag as an alternative tocustomary informal ad hoc procedures. Its objective is tomaximize the reliability and precision with which this charac-teristic may be determined.NOTE 1The brush drag of paints is directly related to their high-she

11、arviscosity. There is generally good rank order agreement between resultsobtained by this method and Test Method D4287. The sensitivity of thisbrushout method has been found sufficient to distinguish between brush-abilities corresponding to high-shear viscosity differences not lower than0.3 poise (0

12、.03 Pa.s). Round robin data show that rank order agreementbetween the brushout and viscometric methods is poor when latex andsolvent-borne paints are part of the same comparison group. This is theresult of these two paint types having markedly different rheologicalproperties that affect the relative

Procedure8.1 Do not change operators during the running of a seriesof spec

19、imens, since this will invalidate any conclusions as torank order.8.2 Determine the density in kilograms per litre (pounds pergallon) of the paint sample in accordance with Test MethodD1475.8.3 Multiply the density by 10.2 to obtain the weight ofpaint in grams to apply on the specified test chart to

20、 obtain aspreading rate of 9.82 m2/L (multiply density in pounds pergallon by 1.22 to obtain a spreading rate of 400 ft2/gal).8.4 Load the brush with the specified paint and condition thebrush for testing in accordance with Practice D5068.8.5 Place the test chart on the balance and weigh the correct

21、amount of paint as calculated in 8.3 directly onto the center ofthe card.8.6 Immediately tape the card onto a hard, flat surface, startthe stopwatch, and proceed to spread the paint using thepreviously conditioned 50-mm (2-in.) brush. Using long,steady brush strokes, alternately parallel and perpend

Ifsmall differences are perceived, then indicate these by assign-ing intermediate decimal values. If no difference is found

Interpretation of Results9.1 Tabulate the paints in order of their brush drag ratings,showing verbal descriptions and numerical ratings in separatecolumns.9.2 In a fourth rank order column, rank the paints from 1 ton (least to most brush drag), where n is the total

26、 number ofpaints in the series.9.3 Paints with the same qualitative ratings should beassigned multiple rank numbers, with the mean of thosenumbers shown in parentheses, for example, 3 to 4 (3.5), 5 to7 (6). The mean ranking (in parentheses) is used to calculate agrand mean ranking when the same seri

Precision and Bias11.1 PrecisionIn an interlaboratory study of this testmethod in which five coatings varying widely in brush dragwere ranked by one operator in each of nine lab

28、oratories, twooperators in one laboratory, and three operators in anotherlaboratory, the coefficient of concordance (agreement in rank-ing) was found to be 0.84, reflecting the fact that seven of thefourteen operators agreed perfectly and four others reversedone of two adjacent pairs. The coefficien

29、t is statisticallysignificant at the 99.9 % confidence level.11.2 BiasBias can not be determined for this test methodbecause there is no standard reference material.12.
