Summary of Test Method3.1 The candidate paint is applied to cylindrical test speci-mens. The coated specimens are placed in a tank of substituteocean water wh

12、ere the copper levels are kept below 100 g L-1by circulating the substitute ocean water through a suitablefiltration system (see 5.3). At specified intervals, each speci-men is placed in 1500 mL of substitute ocean water (seeSection 9 for details) and rotated at 60 revolutions per minute(rpm) for 1

13、h (or less, see 9.8 for further explanation andinstruction). The rate of copper release from the paint isdetermined by measuring copper concentrations of the substi-tute ocean water in the individual measuring containers.3.2 Appendix X1 provides an analytical procedure formeasuring copper concentrat

Quantitative measurement of the release rate is necessaryto help in selection

18、 of materials, in providing quality control,and in understanding the performance mechanism.4.2 Results from this test method establish a pattern ofcopper release from an antifouling coating over a minimum of45 days exposure under controlled laboratory conditions.Copper release rates from antifouling

19、 paints in-service varyover the life of the coating system depending on the formula-tion and on the physical and chemical properties of theenvironment. Factors such as differences in berthing locations,operating schedules, length of service, condition of paint filmsurface, temperature, pH, and salin

20、ity influence the actualrelease rate under environmental conditions. Results obtainedusing this test method do not reflect actual copper release ratesthat will occur in-service, but provide comparisons of therelease rate of different antifouling formulations in substituteocean water under the prescr

21、ibed laboratory conditions.4.3 By comparison with copper release rate measurementsobtained either by direct measurements of copper release ratefrom AF coating systems on ship hulls, or copper release ratemeasurements from AF coating systems from harbor exposedpanels, all available data indicate that

22、 the results of this testmethod (Test Method D 6442) significantly overestimate therelease rate of copper when compared to release rates underin-service conditions. Published results demonstrate that thistest method produces higher measurements of copper releaserate than from direct in-situ measurem

23、ents for the same coatingon in-service ship hulls and harbor-exposed panels. Thedifference between the results of this test method and the paneland ship studies was up to a factor of about 30 based on datafor several commercial antifouling coatings.3,4Realistic esti-mates of the copper release from

24、a ships hull under in-serviceconditions can only be obtained from this test method wherethe difference between the results obtained by this test methodand the release rate from an AF coating in-service is taken intoaccount.4.4 Where the results of this test method are used in theprocess of generatin
