1、Designation: B 457 67 (Reapproved 2003)Standard Test Method forMeasurement of Impedance of Anodic Coatings onAluminum1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B 457; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the ye

2、ar of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method describes the conditions and equipmentfor measuring the impedance of anodic coatings on alumin

3、um.Such measurements have been used to evaluate the quality ofseal of an anodic coating. The test method does not prescribethe procedure for producing the anodic coating, nor thepostanodizing treatment usually described as “sealing.”1.2 This test method is applicable to the rapid, nondestruc-tive te

4、sting of anodic coatings. The interpretation of results andcorrelation of data with service experience and other tests arenot within the scope of this test method.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the

5、user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2. Nature of Test2.1 Impedance is an electrical characteristic described as thetotal opposition of all circuit elements to the flow of alternatingcurren

6、t. Inductive effects of anodic coatings are negligible andthe impedance is presumed to be made up of resistance andcapacitive reactance according to the following relationships:Z 5 =R21 Xc2(1)andXc5 1/2 p fC (2)where:Z = impedance,R = resistance,Xc= capacitive reactance,f = frequency, andC = capacit

7、ance.2.2 Both resistance and capacitance are associated with amaterial constant and a geometric factor:R 2 r l/A!(3)where:R = resistance,r = specific resistance,l = length of conductor, andA = area of cross section of conductor.C 5 eA/l!(4)where:C = capacitance,e = dielectric constant,A = area of op

8、posing plates of capacitor, andl = distance between plates.2.3 For measuring impedance of anodic coatings, the mate-rial constants are partly associated with the anodic coating andpartly with the electrolyte employed in the test cell. Forsimplification these constants are assumed not to vary. Thevar

9、iations in measured impedance then depend directly ongeometric factors.23. Apparatus3.1 Impedance BridgesCommercially available a-c im-pedance bridges with the following characteristics are satisfac-tory:33.1.1 Range1 F (1000 nF) to 0.0001 F (0.1 nF) fullscale with a dissipation factor of 0 to 2.3.1

Test Specimen5.1 The area to be tested should be sufficiently large toaccommodate the test cell, sufficiently flat to prevent leakageof the solution from the probe, and free from mechanicaldefects such as scratches. After a

18、n anodic coating has beensealed, moisture is lost from the coating thus producing anincrease in impedance. The rate at which moisture is lostincreases as the relative humidity decreases; therefore, therelative humidity of the testing environment should be con-trolled and never below 25 %. Specimens

19、should be testedwithin 1 h after the anodic coating has been sealed. If thiscannot be done or if the part has been subjected to an elevatedtemperature drying treatment, the test area should be condi-tioned as follows:5.1.1 Wipe the test area with acetone, methylethylketone,trichloroethylene, or simi

Procedure6.1 Penetrate the anodic coating in a small area with a sharpinstrument and connect the lead from the low-impedanceterminal of the bridge to the

21、exposed aluminum substrate.6.2 Connect the other lead from the bridge to the counterelectrode of the test cell. Be certain the lead wires are nottwisted around each other. Turn on the bridge and allow it towarm up.6.3 Place the test cell on the area to be tested and applyenough pressure, 490 to 1230

22、 MPa (71 to 178 psi) to preventleakage of the electrolyte (the cell is spring-loaded to ensuresufficient and constant pressure). Make certain the bottom ofthe gasket on the test cell is level with the test surface.6.4 Fill the test cell at least half full with electrolyte andcommence a 2-min soak pe

The counter electrode shouldnot contact the test specimen.6.5 Turn on and obtain a preliminary “balance” of the bridgein accordance with the manufacturers instructions (not neces-sary if a direct-reading instrument is used).6.6 After the electrolyte has been in contact with the testsurface for

24、 a period of 2 min, obtain a final balance of thebridge and record the dissipation factor (tan d). Next, recordthe capacitance (in nanofarads) as indicated by either thebalancing series component (CS) or the balancing parallelcomponent ( CP).6.7 Calculate the impedance, Z, in kilohms, as follows:7Z

Because this area may vary owing to variations incell gasket size and wear during use, the cell should bestandardized

29、 daily.7.2 Cell standardization is accomplished by measuring theimpedance on a 6.45-cm2(1-in.2) surface and comparing thismeasurement with results obtained with the cell. The 6.45-cm2(1-in.2) test surface must be free from surface scratches. Therequired area may be obtained by appropriately masking

30、alarger anodized specimen using wax of lacquer. Several appli-cations of the masking material will ensure against uncoatedareas, especially at edges. Standard 1-in.2test cells are avail-able and may be used as an alternative way of arriving at a1-in.2area. If this type cell is used beaker immersion

Connect one lead fromthe impedance bridge to the beaker, the other to an area ofexposed aluminum on the test specimen.7.4 Measu

Record this as B. If the two measure-ments are not within 10 %, an additional measurement shouldbe made an

Ifmeasurements are made at widely varying temperatures, theyshould be adjusted to a constant, that is, 25C (77F

Interpretation of Results9.1 The relationship between impedance value and qualityof the anodic coating shall be as agreed by the manufacturerand the purchaser

35、. A minimum acceptable value can beestablished for any anodic coating thickness being used.Generally, higher values should be obtained with thickeranodic coatings. However, an increase in coating thicknessdoes not compensate for a poor seal. Low values will beobtained regardless of coating thickness
