1、Designation: D 662 93 (Reapproved 2005)Standard Test Method forEvaluating Degree of Erosion of Exterior Paints1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 662; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of l
2、ast revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the evaluatio
3、n of the degree oferosion of exterior paints by comparison with photographicstandards.2.

Terminology3.1 Definitio
4、ns of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.1.1 erosion, nthat phenomenon manifested in paintfilms by the wearing away of the finish to expose the substrateor undercoat.3.1.1.1 Discussion The degree of failure is dependent onthe amount of substrate or undercoat visible. Erosion occurs asthe result of ch
5、alking. (See Test Methods D 4214 for evaluationof chalking.)4. Significance and Use4.1 Erosion failure of paint films can occur in use. This testmethod provides a mean of evaluating the degree of failure bycomparing to pictorial standards.5. Types of Erosion5.1 Only one type of erosion is recognized
6、, as defined inSection 3.6. Use of Photographic Reference Standards6.1 The photographic reference standards that are part ofthis test method and are provided in the Pictorial Standards ofCoating Defects Handbook are representative of the degree oferosion of exterior paint films. Fig. 1 is for illust
7、ration purposesonly and should not be used for evaluation.6.2 The use of the photographic reference standards3illus-trated in Fig. 1 requires the following precautions:6.2.1 Care must be taken not to confuse various types offailure that may be present on the same surface.6.2.2 It must be realized th
8、at the degree of failure will varyover any given area. Therefore, an average portion of the filmshould be used for comparison. On larger surfaces it isrecommended that ratings be made at several locations and themean and range reported.6.2.3 The photographic standards used represent variousdegrees o
9、f erosion of a white brushing type paint over a darkprimer. This system was necessary to provide sufficient con-trast for photographic purposes. The erosion of a film to itsnormal substrate is, however, readily visible to the naked eyeso it may easily be compared to the standards and given anumerica
10、l rating.6.2.4 In doubtful cases, erosion is sometimes more visible ina damp film than in a dry film. Also, with severe erosion, it isoften easier to rate the degree of erosion in a damp film than ina dry film.6.2.5 While erosion of a sprayed film is more regular in itswearing away, a numerical rati
11、ng can be given to it byinterpreting the amount of erosion in terms of these standards.6.3 For convenience in recording the data obtained, therecords should be kept on forms agreed upon between thepurchaser and the seller.7.
