Significance and Use3.1 The primary objective of this verification guide is todeterm
18、ine the “air pollution-prevention potential” (possiblereduction in VOC or HAP emissions) of factory-applied liquidcoatings.3.2 The overall objective of this guide is to verify the abovepollution-prevention characteristics and basic performancecharacteristics of liquid coating technologies. Use of th
19、is guidecan increase acceptance of more environmentally friendlytechnologies for product finishing with an accompanyingreduction in emissions to the atmosphere. The specific objec-tives of this guide are to (1) quantify the VOC and HAPcontentof liquid coatings and (2) verify the basic quality and du
20、rabilityperformance of these coatings.3.3 The primary criteria for verification of liquid coatingswill be:3.3.1 Confirm that use of the coating will significantlyreduce VOC and HAP content or emissions (or both) duringapplication or cure, or both.3.3.2 Confirm that the coating can provide an accepta
21、blefinish (appearance, hardness, flexibility, etc.) for the intendedend use.3.4 The test results from this guide can provide to potentialusers the best data available to determine whether the coatingwill provide a pollution-prevention benefit while meeting thefinish quality requirements for its inte
22、nded use. This guideintends to supply end users with unbiased technical data toassist them in this decision-making process.3.5 The quantitative air pollution-prevention potential de-pends on a multitude of factors; therefore, the liquid coatingsare to be applied in accordance with the coating vendor
23、sinstructions and the resulting verification data reflect only thespecific conditions of the test. To quantify the environmentalbenefit (air pollution-prevention potential), a test to quantifythe VOC or HAP emissions from the new liquid coatings willbe conducted and compared to data for existing coa
24、tingstypically used in the target industry.4. Testing Site4.1 To accelerate the transition of environmentally friendlyprocesses to the manufacturing base, the test facility shouldoffer the ability to test processes and products on representativecommercial equipment. The coating application equipment
25、 inthe test facility should be available for the pilot-scale testingperformed in this guide (for example, surface pretreatment,powder coating, electrocoating, wet spray, and conventionalforced-air and infrared ovens, as applicable). Layouts of anexample of an approved test facility are shown in Appe
26、ndixX1, Figs. X1.1 and X1.2, respectively. Examples of the varioustesting laboratories and their representative equipment hold-ings that are relevant to the approved test facility verificationprojects are listed in Table X1.1.4.2 A test plan, referred to as a Testing and QualityAssurance Protocol (T
27、/QAP), will be established to provide thetesting details that are dependent upon the specific liquidcoating being tested. Some general guidelines and procedurescan be applied to each T/QAP. These include:4.2.1 A detailed description of each part of the test will beprovided. The selection of tests to
28、 be performed, test details,evaluation methods and acceptance criteria are defined by theend use requirements of the coating. These details should beincorporated into a test plan that is unique to each coating. Thiswill include a detailed design of experiments and a schematicdiagram of testing to be
29、 performed.4.2.2 Critical and noncritical factors will be listed. Noncriti-cal factors will remain constant throughout the testing. Criticalfactors will be listed as control (process) factors or response(coating product quality) factors.4.2.3 The T/QAP will identify the testing site.4.2.4 Regardless
30、 of where the testing is performed, theapproved test facility will ensure that the integrity of third-party testing is maintained.4.2.5 Regardless of where the testing is performed, theQuality Assurance (QA) portion of the guide will be strictlyadhered to.4.2.6 A statistically significant number of
31、samples will beanalyzed for each critical response factor (see Table 1).Variances (or standard deviations) of each critical responsefactor will be reported for all results.4.3 The test facility will be selected and must meet thestandards of the individual T/QAP and the test facilitysQuality Manageme
32、nt Plan (QMP). Example QMPs can befound at the ETV Website (http:/epa.gov/etv). Testing person-nel will document all critical and noncritical control factors andqualitative noncritical control factors.5.

33、used in the test protocol:5.1.1 Determine the performance parameters to be verified.5.1.2 Choose a standard test panel (and possibly otheritems) that will enable thorough testing of coating perfor-mance.5.1.3 Select the test coating and the optimum equipmentsettings for application and curing based
34、on informationfurnished by the coating manufacturer.5.1.4 Complete the verification test.5.1.5 Analyze the results using a statistically valid testprogram that efficiently accomplishes the required objectives.3US EPA, Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards (OAQPS), TTN EMCWebmaster (C304-03),

36、 coatings. Inaddition, the VOC and HAP emissions generated during thecuring of the coating may be checked using an agreed uponmethod for determining those emissions. The coated test panelswill be checked for dry film thickness (DFT), visualappearance, and at least three of the following performancea
37、ttributes: gloss, color, distinctness-of-image (DOI), adhesion,corrosion resistance, impact resistance, flexibility, hardness,humidity resistance, weather resistance, wear resistance, andresistance to methyl ethyl ketone (MEK). The tests may beselected based on the end use of the coating.5.3 Standar
38、d Test PanelThe actual test panels may befabricated from steel, stainless steel, glass, plastic, alloys,wood, composite, or other substrate based on the liquid coatingvendors recommendations for the target industry. The defaultstandard test panels will be cold-rolled steel, 30.5 cm (12 in.)long and
39、10.2 cm (4 in.) wide with a 0.6-cm (0.25-in.) hole inone end so that it may be suspended from a hook. Other shapes(parts) may be treated and tested as required to complete theverification.5.4 Coating Specification:5.4.1 The liquid coating submitted for verification testingshould provide an environme
40、ntal benefit (that is, reduced airpollution) over coatings currently in use in the liquid coatingstarget industry. It should be considered as an “innovativecoating.”5.4.2 The coating vendor will supply its test coating andrespective specifications for the verification test program. Thecoating vendor
41、 will also supply a sufficient amount of coatingmaterial to complete the verification tests, the exact preparationinstructions, and the application parameters.
