Summary of Test Method4.1 Instruments complying with this test method measurethickness by emitting an ultrasonic pulse into the coating thatis reflected back from the substrate to the probe. The traveltime

31、 is converted into a thickness reading. The instrumentsprobe must be placed directly on the coating surface to take areading.4.2 After verifying accuracy on a known coated part of theobject or material of the same kind, the instrument probe iscoupled with the coated specimen, after proper cure andco

32、nditioning according to the coating manufacturers instruc-tions.4.3 It should be recognized that the accuracy of the mea-surements can be influenced when:4.3.1 The coated object to be measured is not planar withrespect to the transducer face at the point of measurement,4.3.2 Coating density is not u

33、niform, and4.3.3 The substrate peak-to-valley surface profile of thecoated specimen exceeds the coating thickness.NOTE 1The height of surface profile can be determined in accordancewith ASME B46.1.5. Significance and Use5.1 Many coating properties are markedly affected by thefilm thickness of the dr

34、y film such as adhesion, flexibility,wear, durability, chemical resistance, and hardness. To be ableto compare results obtained by different operators, it is essen-tial to measure film thickness carefully.5.2 Most protective and high performance coatings areapplied to meet a requirement or a specifi

35、cation for the dry-filmthickness of each coat, or for the complete system, or both.Coatings must be applied within certain minimum and maxi-mum thickness tolerances in order that they can fulfill theirintended function. In addition to potential performancedeficiencies, it is uneconomical to apply mo

36、re material thannecessary when coating large areas such as floors and walls.D6132 13 (2017)2Mon Apr 30 11 5.3 Low readings may occur occasionally on coatings withrough surfaces. The instrument may allow a user adjustment toprevent this.5.4 This test method may not be applicable to measureorganic coa

37、ting thickness on all substrates. The instrumentsability to detect a distinct interface between the coating and thesubstrate may be impeded if the coating and the substrate areof similar composition, density or attenuation or if the coatingis non-homogeneous. Verify operation on a known thickness of

38、the coating/substrate combination if these circumstances arethought to exist.5.5 Multilayered coatings have many interfaces and theinstrument will measure to the interface separating the twomost acoustically different materials. Some instruments havethe ability to detect and measure the individual l

39、ayer thick-nesses in a multi-layer system.5.6 The use of this test method is not necessarily limited bythe type of substrate material.6. Apparatus6.1 Gage Bodyan electronic instrument that utilizes trans-ducer probes.6.2 Transducer Probea measurement probe (sensor) usingan ultrasonic principle and n

40、umerical techniques, attached tothe gage body. The appropriate transducer probe is selectedbased on the anticipated organic coating dry film thickness.The gage manufacturer may be contacted for a recommenda-tion.7. Test Specimen7.1 When this test method is used in the field, the specimenis the coate

41、d structure or article on which the dry film thicknessis to be evaluated.7.2 For laboratory use, apply the materials to be tested topanels of the same composition, structure or article on whichthe dry film thickness is to be evaluated. Cure the organiccoating in accordance with the coating manufactu

42、rers instruc-tion.NOTE 2Coatings should be applied in accordance with PracticesD823, or as agreed upon between the purchaser and the seller.8. Calibration, Verification and Adjustment of Apparatus8.1 Calibration of coating thickness gages is performed bythe equipment manufacturer, their authorized a

43、gent, or by anaccredited calibration laboratory in a controlled environmentusing a documented process. A certificate of calibration show-ing traceability to a National Metrology Institute can be issued.There is no standard time interval for re-calibration, nor is oneabsolutely required, but a calibr

44、ation interval can be estab-lished based on experience and the work environment. Aone-year calibration interval is a typical frequency suggestedby many gage manufacturers.8.2 Verification of AccuracyBefore use, each instrumentscalibration accuracy shall be verified by the user in accordancewith the

45、instructions of the manufacturer, employing suitablecoating thickness standards and, if necessary, any deficienciesfound shall be corrected. The probe should also be examinedfor cleanliness and excessive wear before verifying the accu-racy and before obtaining coating thickness measurements.8.2.1 If

46、 gage readings obtained during verification areoutside the combined accuracy of the coating thickness stan-dard and the manufacturers stated gage accuracy, the gageshould be returned to the manufacturer or their authorizedagent for calibration.8.3 AdjustmentMeasurement accuracy directly corre-sponds

47、 to the sound velocity of the coating being measured.Because ultrasonic instruments measure the transit time of anultrasonic pulse, they may require an adjustment by the user foreach coating material. To determine if an adjustment isnecessary, the user should measure a known thickness of thecoating

49、ning the product and measuring the coat-ing thickness by imaging the coating cross-section under amicroscope or by using computerized image analysis. In thecase of variable coating thickness or coatings applied to roughsubstrate surfaces the average coating thickness should becalculated by computer image analysis.8.4 Best adjustment results are achieved on coatings with athickness equal to or greater than the coating thickness range tobe measured and on coating material having the same acousticvelocity and attenuation as the coat
