1、Designation: C724 91 (Reapproved 2015)Standard Test Method forAcid Resistance of Ceramic Decorations on Architectural-Type Glass1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C724; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revisi
2、on, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers qualitative determination of theacid resistance of the ceramic decoration on a
3、rchitectural glass.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standar
4、d to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2. Terminology2.1 Definitions:2.1.1 architectural glassglass used in the building indus-try.3. Summary of Test Method3.1 This test method qualitatively determines, by visua
5、linspection, the degree of attack upon a ceramic decoration bya 10 % citric acid solution and a nominal 3.7 % hydrochloricacid solution.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method evaluates the quality and serviceabilityof a ceramic decoration on architectural type glass. The degreeof attack is dete
6、rmined using an acidic solution both quantita-tively and qualitatively.4.2 This test method provides a convenient control testduring the manufacture of the ware.4.3 This test method is suitable for specification acceptance.5. Reagent5.1 Purity of Reagents Reagent grade chemicals shall beused in all
7、tests. Unless otherwise indicated, it is intended thatall reagents shall conform to the specifications of the Commit-tee on Analytical Reagents of the American Chemical Society,where such specifications are available.2Other grades may beused, provided it is first ascertained that the reagent is ofsu
8、fficiently high purity to permit its use without lessening theaccuracy of the determination.5.2 Citric Acid Solution (1+9)Add 10 parts by mass ofreagent grade citric acid to 90 parts by mass of distilled water.Prepare fresh for each determination.5.3 Hydrochloric Acid Solution (1 + 9)Add 10 parts by
9、mass of reagent grade concentrated hydrochloric acid (HCl)(36 to 38 %) to 90 parts by mass of distilled water.6. Procedure6.1 Place four drops of each acid solution on a separatelocation on the surface of the ceramic decoration of thearchitectural glass to be tested. Cover each spot with awatchglass
10、 to retard evaporation and prevent contamination.Acid should remain on the surface of the test specimen for 15min at 20 62C.6.2 After 15 min of exposure, wash the acid solutions(1 + 9) from the test specimen with tap water and allow it to airdry.7. Report7.1 Report the following information:7.1.1 Th

16、in testing and evaluation, thebetween-laboratory precision for citric-acid resistance determi-nation was found to be 61 grade (95 % students t). Thewithin-laboratory precision for citric-acid resistance determi-nation is estimated at no greater than 61 grade.8.2 BiasNo justifiable statement can be m
