These methods are further compli-cated by needing three to five test liquids and are not practicalfor routine testing. This method uses contact angles of twoliquids to provide data for the ca
17、lculation of two components,dispersion, gsd, and polar, gsp.5.2 Dispersion and polar component data, along with thetotal solid surface tension, are useful for explaining or predict-ing wetting or adhesion, or both, of coatings on pretreatments,substrates and other coatings. Low solid surface tension
18、 valuesoften are a sign of contamination and portend potential wettingproblems. High polar components may signal polar contami-nation. There is evidence in the literature that matching of polarcomponents of topcoats and primers gives better adhesion.35.3 Solid surface tensions of pigments, particula
19、rly the polarcomponents, may be useful in understanding dispersion prob-lems or to provide signals for the composition of dispersantsand mill bases. However, comparison of pigments may bedifficult if there are differences in the roughness or porosity, orboth, of the disks prepared from them.5.4 Alth
20、ough this technique is very useful in characterizingsurfaces, evaluating surface active additives and explainingproblems, it is not designed to be a quality control orspecification test.6.

Reagents and Materials8.1 WaterType II reagent water (distilled) in accordancewith Specification D 1193.8.2 Diiodomethanereagent grade or better.9. Preparation of Specimens9.1 If the part or panel of interest is t

They shall be cut in such a wayas to be thoroughly representative of the sample.9.2 The areas tested shall not contain visible blemishes ordefects and shall not be touched with the fing

However, cleaning may affect the resultsand must be noted on the report.9.4 Pigment specimens shall be in the form of disks
27、 pre-pared in a press such as those used to prepare KBr disks forinfrared analysis.10. Procedure10.1 Test the specimens at a standard temperature of 23 62C and at a relative humidity$50 %, unless otherwise agreedupon.10.2 Set up the goniometer and level the stage according tothe manufacturers instru
28、ctions.10.3 Measure contact angles of water and diiodomethane onthe specimen of interest as described in Practice D 7334 or themanufacturers literature for the instrument being used.10.4 Make two angle measurements (one on each dropedge) of each of three drops on the specimen. If the contactangles o
29、n two edges are significantly different, the valuesshould be eliminated and the test repeated. The contact anglefor the specimen shall be the average of the six anglesmeasured.10.5 Water contact angles must be measured rapidly (within30 s of depositing the drop) to avoid changes in angle as thewater

33、his method specifies two liquids of knownsurface tension (distilled water = 72.8, diiodomethane = 50.8)and known dispersion and polar components (distilled watergd= 21.8, gp= 51.0; diiodomethane gd= 49.5, gp= 1.3), all indynes/cm), we can use these numbers to simplify the O-W-Kequation and turn it i

Precision and Bias13.1 PrecisionThe precision of this method has not beendetermined by interlabo
39、ratory testing, but estimates of preci-sion of measurements on substrates and coatings can be madebased on experience with the method. Variability of measure-ments on pigments is expected to be greater due to differencesin roughness and porosity.13.1.1 Repeatability (substrates and coatings):13.1.1.
40、1 Contact AngleTwo contact angle results (eachthe overall average of two measurements made on each of threedrops) obtained by the same operator should be consideredsuspect (or as an indicator of the presence of localizedcontamination) if they differ by more than 2.13.1.1.2 Dispersion and Polar Compo
41、nentsTwo values,each based on three drops of each test liquid, obtained by thesame operator should be considered suspect (or as an indicatorof the presence of localized contamination) if they differ bymore than 5 dynes/cm.13.1.2 ReproducibilityThese measurements rarely if everare carried out on the
42、same specimen in two different labora-tories. therefore, reproducibility is unknown and probably willbe impossible to establish with any certainty.13.2 BiasIt is not possible to determine bias for thismethod because of the lack of availability of a standardsubstrate whose surface can be expected to

47、 1.14 gsp!1/2#Now, we need to change two equations in two unknowns toa single equation with one unknown. To accomplish this, wemultiply both sides of the first equation by 7.03/4.67 andsubtract the second equation above from this new equation:54.8! 1 1 cos uw! 5 7.03 gsd!1/21 10.75 gsp!1/2# $25.4! 1

Therefore, the expression resultingfrom the subtraction becomes54.8!1.454

This is thepolar component of the primer.We then can substitute this value into either of the twoequations and calculate gsd, the dispersion component of theprimer. For example, using the working equation for water:36.4!1.454! 5 4.67 gsd!1/21 7.14!14.5!1/2#52.9 5 4.67 gsd!1/2127.1gsd5 52.9 27.1!/4.6725 30.5 dynes/cmThe sum of these two values gives the total solid surfacetension, which in this case
