1、Designation: D 5068 04Standard Practice forPreparation of Paint Brushes for Evaluation1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 5068; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number

2、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 describes the preparation of paint brushesfor evaluation.1.2 This practice is applicable to paint brushes 50 to 100mm (2 to 4 i

3、n.) in width.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 the safetyconcerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibilityof the user of this standard to establi

5、ical Characterization of PaintBrushes3. Summary of Practice3.1 Using a paint chosen for the evaluation, the brush to betested is repeatedly loaded with paint and brushed over aspecified area in a specified application time.4. Significance and Use4.1 Until the paint brush is fully conditioned and wet

6、tedwith paint, only part of the paint loaded onto the brush can betransferred to the surface being painted. By properly preparingthe brush before use, the amount of paint delivered to thesurface can be made more uniform and reflect real use.5. Apparatus5.1 Container, to hold paint, for example, a qu

7、art can.5.2 Test Brush, 50 to 100 mm (2 to 4 in.) in width.5.3 Balance, to weigh brush to the nearest 0.1 gram.6. Materials6.1 Test Paint.6.2 Brush-Out Panels, or other typical panels to be used.36.3 Masking Tape, to secure the panel to a flat surface.7. Procedure7.1 All tests are to be conducted in

8、 an atmosphere having atemperature of 23 6 2C (73.5 6 3.5F) and a relativehumidity of 50 6 5 % (see Specification D 3924).7.2 Record weight of the test brush before loading (W1)using the example format as a guide (see Table 1). Place brushout panel on scale and tare.7.3 Dip the brush into the specif

9、ied paint to one-half thelength of the filament.NOTE 1It is very important to assure that the depth that the brushfilaments are dipped into the paint is consistent from brushout to brushout.To aid in determining the depth to dip the filaments, a tongue depressor orother guide for the specified lengt

10、h can be taped to the brush ferrule.7.4 Hold the brush at the specified depth in the paint for10 s. Remove and hold the brush vertically for 30 s allowingany excess paint to drain back into the paint can.7.5 Secure the brush-out panel with masking tape to a flat,smooth, horizontal surface.7.6 After

11、the drain period, immediately place brush on atared brush-out panel and weigh. Record the brush weightloaded with paint (W2). Record the amount of paint picked upby the brush as A, where A = W2W1. Apply paint to thespecified initial area on the brush-out panel as indicated below:Brush Width, mm (in.

16、ing paint, displace the test brush filaments aboutone third to one half of the filament length and maintain thehandle somewhat perpendicular to the paint-out surface. Whenapplying paint, always start in the middle of the area to bepainted. This leaves the excess paint in the middle where it iseasies

17、t to spread to the area being covered and will result in amore uniform coverage (see Fig. 1).7.9 After application, immediately record the weight of thebrush (W3). Record the amount of paint discharged by thebrush as B, where B = W2W3.7.10 Repeat this procedure using new brush-out panels, butthe sam

Determine the amount of paint picked up by the brush(A) and amount of paint discharged (B) after the secondimmersion.7.11 Calculate the difference in weight pick-up (D) bysubtracting the difference between W2 from the second (orn + 1) applica

19、tion from W2 from the first (or n) application.7.12 Calculate the total cumulative paint pick-up (C) foreach subsequent brushout by adding the cumulative paint fromthe previous break-in (C) and the difference in weight pick-up(D) from the next break-in.7.13 Determine the percent additional pick-up v

23、uts to evaluate various paint properties such asleveling or hiding can have a profound effect on the resultsobtained. Applicators can begin to understand about the prob-able performance of a brush by reviewing Practice D 5301.Brush performance is affected by the way that the filament tipsare shaped

24、such as flat, dome shaped or chiseled to a tip orflagged, or both, and level or tapered. Filaments come in avariety of shapes and compositions. Always use a high qualitypaint brush when performing any laboratory tests.ASTM International takes no position respecting the validity of any patent rights
