6、ion of a Test Method3. Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 stainblocking, nthe ability of a paint or coating toprevent stains from bleeding through into the top finish.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 A substrate, typically a painted surface or an uncoatedbuilding material, is stained using a series of ink

7、 writingimplements.4.2 The stained substrate is coated with the test paints andallowed to dry for a specified interval.4.3 The test paints are top-coated with a wall paint and thetest paint/topcoat system is evaluated for stainblocking effec-tiveness.5. Significance and Use5.1 This standard may be u

8、sed by paint companies and rawmaterial suppliers to assess effectiveness of interior architec-tural primers for blocking stains from bleeding through to atopcoat.5.2 In practice, different ink-stained substrates may givevarious results for stainblocking performance for a primer andtopcoat system. As

9、 such, this test method may be used for anumber of different ink-stained surfaces.6. Apparatus6.1 Film applicator, such as a drawdown bar, capable ofapplying 0.075 to 0.100 mm (3 to 4 mil) wet film thicknesswith a minimum film width as needed to cover the test areadefined in 9.2.6.2 Ruler or suitabl

Hazards8.1 The user of this standard should refer to appropriateMSDS for hazards associated with handling of paint samples orother la

16、boratory items used as specified in this standard.9. Procedure9.1 Substrate Preparation:9.1.1 If the primer/topcoat system is to be evaluated directlyover an existing substrate that will accept ink stains, proceeddirectly to the ink-staining procedure in 9.1.3.9.1.2 If no specific substrate is ident

17、ified for the evaluation,a test substrate shall be prepared by coating a drawdown chartwith a suitable basecoat as follows.9.1.2.1 Select a paint to use as a basecoat. Any commer-cially available white flat wall paint may be used for thispurpose.NOTE 2Because different basecoat paints will vary in h

18、ow they acceptthe ink stains, performance can only be compared for tests using the samesubstrate system.9.1.2.2 Apply the selected basecoat paint to an all-whitesealed drawdown chart to achieve a wet-film thickness ofapproximately 0.075 mm (3.0 mils). The application shall beconducted in accordance

19、with any appropriate practice de-scribed in Practices D 823.9.1.2.3 The basecoat paint must cover enough of the widthof the drawdown chart to enable smooth passage of thedrawdown bar for subsequent coats of test paint. The progres-sion of paint applications for this standard beginning with thebaseco

20、at application is represented in Fig. 1.9.1.2.4 Allow basecoat paint to dry overnight. Environmen-tal conditions during drying of the basecoat paint are notcritical to the end test result, however, the basecoat paintshould be Dry-Through as described in Test Methods D 1640before continuing.9.1.3 Usi

21、ng a straight edge as a guide, make a series of solidstain lines perpendicular to the direction of the drawdown withvarious ink markers and pens as specified in 7.2. It is generallysuggested to select inks of varying chemical composition suchas those having different carrier solvents.9.1.4 A minimum

22、 of 2 colors of each marker and pen isrecommended. Leave a minimum of 3 mm unstained areabetween each stain line.NOTE 3Selecting a variety of colors for each stain is recommended asthis gives an indication of a coating systems stainblocking ability using acommon ink composition but with varying pigm

23、entation. In practice, threeFIG. 1 Progression of Paint ApplicationsD7514092or more colors are often selected to represent each ink.9.1.5 If the test will be run using Method A as described in9.2.6.1, the distance between the top and bottom stain lines onthe test chart should not exceed the practica

24、l application widthof the film applicator selected for applying the topcoat.9.1.6 Allow the marker and ink stains to dry minimum ofovernight before proceeding.NOTE 4The duration of ink drying should be agreed upon beforebeginning the test. Additionally, stained panels should be stored in anenvironme

25、nt with limited natural light exposure.9.2 Application of Test Paint System:9.2.1 Application of test paint systems shall be conducted inaccordance with Blade Film Application techniques describedin Practice E of Practices D 823.9.2.2 Using an appropriate film applicator, apply a 0.075 to0.100 mm (3

26、 to 4 mil) wet film of the test paint or primersample(s) perpendicular to the direction of the ink stains. Becareful to ensure the edges of the drawdown bar remain on thesurface of the substrate or basecoat along the entire length ofthe drawdown path. It is recommended to include a controlpaint or a

27、 paint of known ink stainblocking performance inaddition to the test paint samples.NOTE 5Generally this test method is conducted as a comparison oftwo test paint systems with a single topcoat. However, additional testpaints may be simultaneously applied as described in 9.2.2 taking intoconsideration

28、 the available width of the selected film applicator andsubstrate.9.2.3 Allow test paints to dry for 2 hours or other agreedupon time interval. Selected drying time should match orexceed the recommended drying time for the test paint. Ifdrying time is uncertain, it can be determined using TestMethod

29、s D 1640.9.2.4 If the test paint system is designed for use without anadditional topcoat, proceed directly to final evaluation de-scribed in Section 10.9.2.5 Select a paint to use as a topcoat. The topcoat paintshould represent a paint that would be applied over the testpaints in practice. If evalua

30、ting a self-priming system, the testpaint itself may be used as the topcoat.9.2.6 Complete the panel by applying the selected topcoatusing a film applicator to achieve a 0.075 to 0.100 mm (3 to 4mil) wet film.9.2.6.1 Method AThe topcoat drawdown is cast so that itis parallel to the applied direction

31、 of the ink stains on thesubstrate.9.2.6.2 Method BThe topcoat drawdown is cast so that itis perpendicular to the applied direction of the ink stains on thesubstrate.NOTE 6Method A is preferred when the test paint samples vary in dryfilm thickness or when more than two test paints are applied to the

32、 sametest panel. Method B is preferred when the evaluator wishes to visuallyexamine the un-topcoated section of test paint.9.2.7 Allow the panel to dry for 2 hours before finalevaluation.10. Calculation or Interpretation of Results10.1 Visually evaluate each marker or ink stain type on thepanel usin

33、g a standard 0 to 10 rating scale. Ratings may beassigned between the rating guidelines below based on judg-ment of the evaluator:10 Excellent. Staining is not visible through the topcoat. No stain is visible.8 Very good. Slight staining. Approximately 20 % of stain is visible.6 Good. Moderate stain

34、ing. Approximately 40 % of stain is visible.4 Fair. Moderate to heavy staining. Approximately 60 % of stain is visible.2 Marginal. Heavy staining. Approximately 80 % of stain is visible.0 Poor. Severe staining. Stain progressed through topcoat easily.10.2 Record the individual score for each stain a

35、nd colortype.11. Report11.1 Rate each stain individually and report the averageoverall score across all stains.11.2 Optional Rating Schemes:11.2.1 The average score for each type of writing instrumentused.11.2.2 The total score based on summation of averages foreach writing instrument (a maximum 40

36、points when four typesof writing instruments are used).12. Precision and Bias312.1 The precision of this test method is based on singlelaboratory test data of Test Method D 7514 conducted in 2008.Nine to thirteen replicate test results were measured for fourdifferent ink delivery systems over two te

37、st coatings. Every“test result” reported represents an individual determination ofthe stainblocking rating. Except for the use of only a singlelaboratory, Practice E 691 was followed for the design andanalysis of the data; the details are given in ASTM ResearchReport No. D011146.12.1.1 Repeatability

38、 Limit (r)Two test results obtainedwithin one laboratory shall be judged not equivalent if theydiffer by more than the “r” value for that material; “r”istheinterval representing the critical difference between two testresults for the same material, obtained by the same operatorusing the same equipme

An interlaboratorystudy is being organized to determine reproducibility limits.12.1.3 The above terms (repeatability and reproducibilitylimit) are used as specified in Practice E 177.12.1.4 Any judgement in accordance with statement 12.1.1would

42、 have an approximate 95 % probability of being correct,however the precision statistics obtained in this ILS must notbe treated as exact mathematical quantities which are appli-cable to all circumstances and uses. The limited number ofmaterials tested and laboratories reporting results guaranteestha

43、t there will be times when differences greater than predictedby the ILS results will arise, sometimes with considerablygreater or smaller frequency than the 95 % probability limitwould imply. The repeatability limit and the reproducibilitylimit should be considered as general guides, and the associ-

44、ated probability of 95 % as only a rough indicator of what canbe expected.12.2 BiasAt the time of the study, there was no acceptedreference material suitable for determining the bias for this testmethod, therefore no statement on bias is being made.12.3 The precision statement was determined through

45、 sta-tistical examination of 88 results from one laboratory, on fourdifferent inks for two coating systems. To judge the equiva-lency of two test results, it is recommended to choose the inkmaterial closest in characteristics to the test ink.13. Keywords13.1 architectural primer; bleed-through; stai
