An aluminum panel shall be used to determine the flexibility of the primer when subjected to ASTM D522
20、, method B, using a 0.25 in. (6.4 mm) mandrel. The primer film shall show no cracking or flaking. Cracks occurring at either end and extending no more than 0.25 in. (6.4 mm) shall be disregarded. 2.6.3 Salt spray resistance. Three panels of each substrate shall have two intersecting lines scribed ac
21、ross the surface of each panel so that the bare substrate is exposed. The edges of all panels shall be sealed. The panels shall then be subjected to 5% salt spray for 1000 hours as described in ASTM B117. After being subjected to the salt spray, the panels shall be washed free of salt and examined i
22、mmediately for the following: a. One panel from each substrate shall be checked for adhesion in accordance with ASTM D3359, method B, classification 3B. b. One panel from each substrate shall be stripped down mechanically. The panel shall show no more then a trace of rusting, pitting, corrosion or b
