16、y ofOrganic Compound Emitted by Paint, Ink, and OtherCoatings3. Summary of Test Method3.1 This procedure measures the loss of VOC from a freshlycoated surface by; (a) determining the difference in weight ofa coated test panel before and after various steps in a process,(b) analyzing a sample of the

17、applied coating for VOC or watercontent, or both, by gas chromatography (GC), or Karl Fisher,or both, before and after various steps in a process, and (c)calculating the VOC directly or after subtracting the watercontent. With these analyses, it is possible to relate the VOCloss to the volume of sol

18、ids deposited on the test panel at eachstep of a process. The information obtained is used to deter-mine the amount of VOC available for removal by the VOCcontrol device at each step of a process (see Fig. 1).4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method provides basic engineering data thatmay be used

19、 to determine the amount of VOC delivered to theinlet of a VOC control device. The procedure is useful forestablishing the quantity of VOC that is evolved from thecoating in the flash zone or bake oven and available to beincinerated, although the same procedure can be followedwhen other forms of VOC

20、 abatement are used.4.2 The total amount of VOC removed from the process bythe VOC control device is a function of the amount available asgiven by this test method combined with the VOC removalefficiency of the control device.5.

Conditions7.1 Prior to beginning the test, d

34、etermine the followingconditions that represent the production process:(1) Dry film thickness,(2) Process sequence flash times,(3) Air flow,(4) Percent solids content after dehydration, and(5) Temperature and humidity conditions for each signifi-cant step of the process.7.1.1 With the information ob

35、tained, establish test param-eters that represent the range of conditions found in the plant.Specific application parameters need not duplicate exact pro-duction conditions as long as the above parameters are con-trolled for this test.7.2 Identify all locations in the process sequence in whichflash

36、zone/oven effluent is vented directly to a VOC controldevice. The number of locations will affect the number of panelweight measurements taken and the number of panels that needto be tested.8. Procedures8.1 Parameters to Evaluate and General Method to CollectSamples:8.1.1 Parameters to be evaluated

37、are as follows:(1) Determination of water content by Karl Fisher Titration(KF) or(2) Determination of organic solvent content by gas chro-matography (GC), or both, and(3) Determination of volatiles and nonvolatiles (% NV)during flash/baking operations.8.2 Use of Panels and Foil:8.2.1 For each locati

38、on identified in 7.2, prepare test panelsin duplicate as a minimum or as agreed upon between theinvolved parties.NOTE 3Thin steel panels 101.6 by 304.8 mm (4 by 12 in.) arepreferred. If spray area is limited, smaller panels such as 101.6 by 152.4mm (4 by 6 in.) can be used. Foils should be 13 mm (12

39、 in.) larger in sizethan the area to be sprayed for easiness in handling.8.2.2 Specified time at which the samples need to becollected. The following is suggested as a guideline throughoutthe rest of this procedure:(1) Immediately after paint application, (Sample A)(2) Entrance to Dehydration Ovens,

40、 (Sample B)(3) Exit of Dehydration Oven, (Sample C)Where only the dehydration oven is exhausted to the VOCControl Device for example calculations in Section 11.8.2.3 Preparation of Samples:8.2.3.1 Dry and label sufficient sheets of foil (i=1, ., n) foreach test (Ai; Bi; Ci) to constant weight to rem

41、ove residualmoisture.8.2.3.2 Record each foil weight (FAi; FBi; FCi).8.2.4 Wrap or secure foils on panels so some area (mini-mum of12 in. (13 mm) per side) remains unpainted for thefuture handling.8.2.5 Weigh jars and lids prior to spraying. Record the data.Record each jar and lid weight (JAi; JBi;

42、JCi).8.2.6 Prepare as a minimum one additional steel panel perspray out (for film thickness verification) to be sprayed with thefoiled panels. All panels can be sprayed simultaneously.Alternatively, the spraying could be broken into families ofvarious panels for each one of the requested tests for %

43、 NV,KF, and GC.NOTE 4“Trip blanks” are analyzed for all parameters of interest. Tripblanks are often prepared by the laboratory and submitted to the samplingteam when bottle ware is delivered. The trip blank accompanies all of theproject samples through all custody changes in possession, coolers, an

44、drefrigerators. Trip blanks are not opened by the sampling team. The tripD 6266 00a (2005)3blanks provide information with respect to contamination that is“ picked-up” during sample packaging, shipping and storage.NOTE 5The “field blank” is a portion of the sampling matrix that iscarried through the

45、 entire analytical scheme. The field blank is treatedexactly as the actual sample is treated. For example, the field blank vial isopened and closed when the corresponding sample vial is opened andclosed. It is important that the volume/weight of the field blanks be thesame as that of the samples.8.3

46、 Spraying Samples:8.3.1 Apply basecoat using an automated device (preferredfor consistency) to target film build simulating assembly plantprocessing conditions.8.4 Collection of Samples:8.4.1 At the sampling points specified in 8.2.2, the foilsamples for KF and GC analyses need to be placed in jars

47、witha specified solvent (8.5 and 8.6). The samples for % NV justneed to be weighed at the sampling point. Then, they are bakedat final bake condition and re-weighed.8.4.2 Roll up foil paint side out for KF (8.5) and GC (8.6).8.4.3 Place coated foil (8.4.1) immediately into a jar of sizedepending upo

48、n foil size. Weigh jars, lids, and coated foils.Record weights (KAi; KBi; KCi) including field blanks (see8.2.6).8.4.4 Fold foils paint side in for%NV(8.7).8.5 Water Content by KF:8.5.1 Water Content Solvent Preparation:8.5.1.1 Analyze a sample of the bulk methanol for watercontent by the Karl Fisch

49、er Method in accordance with TestMethod D 4017 to check purity of reagent.8.5.1.2 Fill each jar (as described in 8.4.1.1) with 30 mL ofmethanol. Foil should be completely submerged in methanol.8.5.1.3 Reweigh jars, lids, coated foils and methanol andrecord weights (LAi; LBi; LCi).8.5.1.4 Place the capped jars containing methanol and foilstrips into an ultrasonic cleaning unit until sample is uniformlydispersed into the methanol.8.5.2 Sample Analysis:8.5.2.1 Follow the procedure for KF Titration in accordancewith Test Method D 4017.8.5.2.2 Fill a 5.0-mL disposable
