Summary of Test Method3.1 Steel panels are prepared to a prescribed surface finish,dipped in the test oil, allowed to drain, and then suspended ina humidity cabinet at 48.9C
8、 (120F) for a specified number ofhours. The oil fails or passes the test in accordance with thesize and number of rust dots on the test surfaces of the panels.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method is used for measuring the relativeabilities of metal preservatives to prevent the rusting of stee
9、lpanels under conditions of high humidity. It should not berelied upon to predict the effectiveness of a metal preservativein which high humidity is not the principal factor in the rusting.4.2 Comparisons made by this test method should normallybe limited to similar metal preservative combinations d
10、esignedfor similar applications. The test life required for each type ofmetal preservative and for each intended application should bebased on actual experience with that type of preservative in theintended service.4.3 Since the precision of the test method appears to be lessthan desired, a number o
11、f repeat tests may be necessary toestablish the test life of a given metal preservative, and repeattests by this test method in more than one cabinet aresometimes desirable.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D02 onPetroleum Products and Lubricants and is the direct respons

Remain
24、ing standard conditions shallbe closely checked once each week. The pH measurement maybe made with wide-range indicator paper.NOTE 4Values for pH outside the limits shown indicate contamina-tion that should be investigated and corrected. A persistent low pH alongwith a positive sulfate test indicate
25、s that the air supply is contaminatedwith sulfur oxides. In this case, the water in the cabinet should bereplaced, and a suitable alkali scrubber system installed in the air train.NOTE 5Details of the cabinet operation described in 7.1 and 7.2 andthe details of panel preparation described in Section
26、 8, must be carefullycarried out. Only by such standardization can results be obtained that aresignificant and comparable to those run at another time or in anotherlaboratory.8. Panel Preparation8.1 Remove the protective packaging from all the panels tobe used for a particular day and wash away the
27、rust preventivematerial in a beaker of solvent selected in 6.3 (swabbing ispermissible using materials defined in 6.4). Carefully inspecteach panel and use only those which comply with requirementsgiven in A1.10. Identify each panel by an appropriate numberin the right-hand lower corner, outside of
28、the significant area,or by attaching a small metal tag to the outside wire hook afterthe panel is polished.8.2 The following are pertinent to the polishing operations:8.2.1 Do not allow the bare fingers to touch the panel.Tongs, metal hooks, or pieces of lint-free paper are suitablehelpers for manip
29、ulating and holding the panel.8.2.2 Always keep the panel on a clean, dry surface.8.3 Alternative Surface FinishesPolishing:8.3.1 The amount of polishing of the panel by the operatorconducting the humidity cabinet test should only be thatrequired to give it a fresh, clean, and active surface. Thisre
30、quires only a few minutes per panel. A fast-moving beltsander should not be used since the heat of friction may changethe surface characteristics of the panel. Surface finish limits forthe panel are not defined here. There should be no appreciablechange of the finish from the 0.25 to 0.51 m (10 to 2
31、0 m)obtained by the original surface grinding A1.10.1.3.8.3.2 Divide the 240-grit aluminum oxide abrasive clothinto convenient size strips for the subsequent polishing opera-tions. Observing the precautions given in 8.2 and 8.3, buff allfour of the rounded edges with even strokes in the direction of
32、each edge. Ream out the two holes used for suspension andwipe clean, using gauze wet with solvent selected in 6.3.8.3.3 While polishing, place the panel on a clean, drysurface with a suitable thickness of clean paper under it to helpprevent contamination. The panel may be held by hand, usingpaper be
33、tween the fingers and the steel surface. Alternatively itmay be held in a special holder such as a wooden block, havingabout a 1.6-mm (116-in.) depression slightly larger in area thanthe 51- by 102-mm (2- by 4-in.) dimension of the panel. Theabrasive cloth may be held in the palm of the hand with th
34、eD 1748 02 (2008)2fingers applying pressure to the panel. Alternatively, thealuminum oxide cloth may be held on a block of sizeconvenient to the hand and convenient for polishing withsmooth strokes without marking the ends of the panel.8.3.4 Polish the unnumbered or leading surface of the panelwith
35、careful even strokes, always parallel to the 102-mm(4.0-in.) dimension. Use a polishing pressure of about 4.5 to8.9 N (1.0 to 2.0 lb). Do not scratch the surface by using shortor curved strokes. Ensure that the panel is held firmly so thatonly the abrasive cloth moves. After several polishing stroke
36、s,inspect the abrasive cloth and when necessary make anotherfold to expose a new and effective area. Continue to polish theleading surface until it contains a completely fresh surface. Thefinish should be within the range from 0.25 to 0.51 m (9.8 to20.0 in.) (rms). Examine the entire surface, and if
37、 scratches orother imperfections are noted, continue polishing until cor-rected. In the same manner polish the second side of the panel,unless the test specification requires only one polished side perpanel.NOTE 6It is advisable for each operator to finish several panels todetermine exactly what tec
38、hnique is required to attain the correct surfacefinish using a profilometer or other surface roughness gage. Aftertechniques have been established, the use of visual comparison standardsis sufficient as a check on surface roughness.8.3.5 Remove the dust from the abrasive operation, usingclean gauze
39、wet with solvent selected in 6.3. Finally, wipe withclean surgical gauze until there is no dark stain on a cleansection of the gauze. Remove any dust in the holes by use of apipe cleaner. (This may be followed by an ultrasonic cleaningbath procedure.) Submerge the panel completely in solventselected
40、 in 6.3 at room temperature.NOTE 7The following should be carried out periodically as a checkon surface cleanliness: Place the cleaned panel directly under a buret ona table free of vibrations and drafts. Place the buret so that its tip is exactly300 mm above the panel. The buret contains distilled
41、water and shall havea tip of proper dimensions to deliver 0.05 6 0.01 mL of distilled water perdrop.Allow one drop of distilled water to fall onto the panel surface. If thesurface is absolutely clean, successive droplets on various parts of thesurface will spread out completely in spots of closely r
42、eproducibledimensions. A clean panel should give a spread of 21 to 23 mm for each0.05 mL of distilled water. This test is considered necessary and importantbecause of variations found in different abrasive materials and thepersonal factors involved in the procedure require some method of checkon fin
43、al results. Panels used for this cleanliness check test are not suitablefor use in the protection test.8.3.6 To minimize differences in activity of the steel sur-faces as a result of time in various air atmospheres, cleaningand polishing of the panels should be standardized in respect totime. For th
44、is reason, carry out the procedure described in8.3.2-8.3.5 one panel at a time, and after each one is prepared,store it immediately in solvent selected in 6.3 at roomtemperature until all the panels for one days operations areprepared.8.3.7 Heat the solvent selected in 6.3 so that the solvent willev
45、aporate from the panels immediately upon withdrawal fromthe solvent.8.3.8 Remove remaining residue by holding the panels in arack at 20 from the vertical and spraying downward withsolvent selected in 6.3.8.3.9 Spray the test surface, then the back of the panel, andthe test surface again.8.3.10 Rinse
46、 the panels in hot solvent selected in 6.3, andstore in a desiccator until cool.8.3.11 Use panels the same day as prepared.8.4 Alternative Surface FinishesSand or Aluminum OxideBlasting:8.4.1 Blast the edges and lightly blast the backs of thepanels with the blasting material.8.4.2 Blast the unnumber
47、ed side, or test surface, of thepanels to a fresh, uniformly abraded surface. (Operation177.9355.8 N of the blasting equipment at 40- to 80-lbpressure and holding the workpiece 50.8 to 76.2 mm (2 to 3 in.)from the nozzle is recommended.)8.4.3 Immediately after blasting, place the panels in abeaker o
48、f nonreactive solvent or an ultrasonic cleaning bathcontaining nonreactive solvent.8.4.4 Heat the solvent selected in 6.3 so that the solvent willevaporate from the panels immediately upon withdrawal fromthe solvent.8.4.5 Remove remaining residue by holding the panels in arack at 20 from the vertica
49、l and spraying downward withsolvent selected in 6.3.8.4.6 Spray the test surface, then the back of the panel, andthe test surface again.8.4.7 Rinse the panels in hot solvent selected in 6.3, andstore in a desiccator until cool.8.4.8 Panels are to be used the same day as prepared.9. Procedure9.1 Bring the sample oil to a temperature of 23.3 6 0.5C(74.0 6 1.0F) and pour into a clean, dry 400-mL tall-formglass beaker (for example, borosilicate glass) to a height of atleast 114 mm (about 375 mL).
