Summary of Test Method4.1 The water-break test is performed by withdrawing the surface to be tested, in a vertical position, from a container of purifiedwater and observing the behavior of th
16、e water. For large parts, the test surface may be doused with water and the water behaviorobserved on removal of the water source.4.2 The water-break test is performed by withdrawing the surface to be tested, in a vertical position, from a containeroverflowing with water. The interpretation of the t
17、est is based upon the pattern of wetting. interpretation of the test is based uponthe pattern of wetting. Contaminated areas having a surface tension lower than water will cause the water to bead up at that locationor “break” while draining. Most common film contaminants such as oils, silicones, or
18、fluorocarbon greases have surface tensionssignificantly lower than water. In the absence of hydrophobic films, the draining water layer will remain as a film over the surface.In areas where hydrophobic materials are present on the surface, the draining water layer will break up into a discontinuous
19、filmwithin one minute.NOTE 1It is possible to use this test method with liquids other than water. Liquids with different wetting tensions will exhibit different contact angleswith a given surface and therefore different levels of sensitivity to hydrophobic films. This principle has been applied to d
20、evelop differential wettingtension tests such as described in Test Method D2578 using standardized liquids commonly referred to as dyne liquids.5. Significance and Use5.1 The water-break test as described in this test method is rapid, nondestructive, and may be used for control and evaluationof proc
21、esses for the removal of hydrophobic contaminants. This test method is commonly used for in-process verification of theabsence of surface contaminants on metal surfaces that may interfere with subsequent surface treatments such as priming,conversion coating, anodizing, plating, or adhesive bonding5.
22、2 This test method is not quantitative and is typically restricted to applications where a go/no go evaluation of cleanliness willsuffice.5.3 The water-break test as described in this test method is nondestructive and may be used for control and evaluation ofprocesses for the removal of hydrophobic
23、contaminants. The test may test may also be used for the detection and control ofhydrophobic contaminants in processing ambients.environments. For this application, a witness surface free of hydrophobic filmsis exposed to the ambientenvironment and subsequently tested. The sensitivity of this test w
24、ill vary with the level of airbornecontaminant and the duration of exposure of the witness surface.5.4 For quantitative measurement of surface wetting, test methods that measure contact angle of a sessile drop of water or othertest liquid may be used in some applications. Measurement methods based o
25、n contact angle are shown in Test Methods C813,D5946, and D7490; and Practice D7334.5.4.1 Devices for in situ measurement of contact angle are available. These devices are limited to a small measurement surfacearea and may not reflect the cleanliness condition of a larger surface. For larger surface
26、 areas, localized contact angle measurement,or other quantitative inspection, combined with water-break testing may be useful.5.5 For surfaces that cannot be immersed or doused with water, or where such immersion or dousing is impractical,Test MethodF21 may be useful.NOTE 2This test method is not ap
27、propriate where line of sight evaluation is not feasible; or for assembled hardware where there is a risk forentrapment of water in faying surfaces or complex structures where it may not be effectively removed.A = contact angleD = drop of liquidP = specimenT = tangent at specimen surfaceFIG. 1 Conta

If hydrophobic contaminants arepresent, as evidenced by formation of a discontinuous water film within 1 min60 s after withdrawal from or of the surface fromthe overflow container, the test fluid, the
47、 length of time necessary for the water-break to occur is a rough indication of the degreeof contamination.10.2 A discontinuous film may appear in the form of localized or general beading of the water, or discontinuous flow of thewater around discrete locations where contaminants are present (see Fi
