24、 be checked and regulated if necessary twice eachday, at 7 h to 8 h intervals. Remaining 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 contaminationthat should be investi
25、gated and corrected. A persistent low pH along witha positive sulfate test indicates that the air supply is contaminated withsulfur oxides. In this case, the water in the cabinet should be replaced, anda suitable alkali scrubber system installed in the air train.NOTE 5Details of the cabinet operatio
26、n described in 7.1 and 7.2 andthe details of panel preparation described in Section 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 protect
27、ive packaging from all the panels tobe used for a particular day and wash away the 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. Iden
28、tify each panel by an appropriate numberin the right-hand lower corner, outside of 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 p
29、anel.Tongs, metal hooks, or pieces of lint-free paper are suitablehelpers for manipulating 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 tes
30、t should only be thatrequired to give it a fresh, clean, and active surface. Thisrequires 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.
31、There should be no appreciablechange of the finish from the 0.25 m to 0.51 m (10 m to20 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
32、in 8.2 and 8.3, buff allfour of the rounded edges with even strokes in the direction ofeach 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 pa
33、per under it to helpprevent contamination. The panel may be held by hand, usingpaper between 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.
34、) dimension of the panel. Theabrasive cloth may be held in the palm of the hand with thefingers 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
35、panel.8.3.4 Polish the unnumbered or leading surface of the panelwith careful even strokes, always parallel to the 102 mmD1748 10 (2015)2(4.0 in.) dimension. Use a polishing pressure of about 4.5 N to8.9 N (1.0 lb to 2.0 lb). Do not scratch the surface by usingshort or curved strokes. Ensure that th
36、e panel is held firmly sothat only the abrasive cloth moves. After several polishingstrokes, inspect the abrasive cloth and when necessary makeanother fold to expose a new and effective area. Continue topolish the leading surface until it contains a completely freshsurface. The finish should be with
37、in the range from 0.25 m to0.51 m (9.8 in. to 20.0 in.) (rms). Examine the entiresurface, and if scratches or other imperfections are noted,continue polishing until corrected. In the same manner polishthe second side of the panel, unless the test specificationrequires only one polished side per pane
38、l.NOTE 6It is advisable for each operator to finish several panels todetermine exactly what technique 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
39、check on surface roughness.8.3.5 Remove the dust from the abrasive operation, usingclean gauze 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 foll
40、owed by an ultrasonic cleaningbath procedure.) Submerge the panel completely in solventselected in 6.3 at room temperature.NOTE 7The following should be carried out periodically as a check onsurface cleanliness: Place the cleaned panel directly under a buret on atable free of vibrations and drafts.
41、Place the buret so that its tip is exactly300 mm above the panel. The buret contains distilled water and shall havea tip of proper dimensions to deliver 0.05 mL 6 0.01 mL of distilled waterper drop. Allow one drop of distilled water to fall onto the panel surface.If the surface is absolutely clean,
42、successive droplets on various parts ofthe surface will spread out completely in spots of closely reproducibledimensions. A clean panel should give a spread of 21 mm to 23 mm foreach 0.05 mL of distilled water. This test is considered necessary andimportant because of variations found in different a
43、brasive materials andthe personal factors involved in the procedure require some method ofcheck on final results. Panels used for this cleanliness check test are notsuitable for 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
44、 air atmospheres, cleaningand polishing of the panels should be standardized in respect totime. For this reason, carry out the procedure described in 8.3.2 8.3.5 one panel at a time, and after each one is prepared, storeit immediately in solvent selected in 6.3 at room temperatureuntil all the panel
45、s for one days operations are prepared.8.3.7 Heat the solvent selected in 6.3 so that the solvent willevaporate 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
46、 in 6.3.8.3.9 Spray the test surface, then the back of the panel, andthe test surface again.8.3.10 Rinse 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 Blas
47、t the edges and lightly blast the backs of thepanels with the blasting material.8.4.2 Blast the unnumbered side, or test surface, of thepanels to a fresh, uniformly abraded surface. (Operation177.9 N to 355.8 N of the blasting equipment at 40 lb to 80 lbpressure and holding the workpiece 50.8 mm to
48、76.2 mm (2 in.to 3 in.) from the nozzle is recommended.)8.4.3 Immediately after blasting, place the panels in abeaker of 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 immediate
49、ly upon withdrawal fromthe solvent.8.4.5 Remove remaining residue by holding the panels in arack at 20 from the vertical 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.
