22、1731, D1732, D2201; GuideD2092; and Method D1733.5.2 Substrate, Film Thickness, and Application MeansConduct performance tests on the specified substrate oncoatings having a film thickness agreed upon between thepurchaser and the seller. Primers are generally applied to a dryfilm thickness of 8 to 3
23、8 m (0.3 to 1.5 mil) and primersurfacers to film thickness of 17 to 50 m (0.7 to 2.0 mil).Unless otherwise agreed upon, apply primers and primersurfacers in accordance with Practices D823.5.3 Measurement of Film ThicknessSince the propertiesof the primer or primer surfacer can vary considerably with
24、 thethickness of the coating, it is important to know the filmthickness. Measure the film thickness in accordance with TestMethods D1400, D1005,orD1186.5.4 Drying of Primer or Primer Surfacer:5.4.1 Before tests are run, air dry or bake the primer orprimer surfacer according to the schedule and tempe

Do this in accordance with Practice D2454.5.4.3 It may be desirable for some reason (handling, stack-ing, etc
26、.) to determine the various stages and rates of filmformation in the drying or curing of primers and primersurfacers at room temperatures. Do this as described in TestMethod D1640.6.

Some of the tests however are for theuntopcoated primer or primer surfacer. The properties requiredof a primer or primer surfacer depend on
32、 the intended end useand the tests to be used should be selected on the basis ofexperience and agreed upon between the purchaser and theseller.6.2 Abrasion ResistanceDetermine the abrasion resis-tance as described in either Test Method D658 or D968.6.3 Adhesion:6.3.1 The primer or primer surfacer of
33、 a specified substrateas agreed upon between the purchaser and the seller issubjected to an adhesion test to determine the degree ofattachment the coating has to the substrate.6.3.2 Determine the adhesion of the primer or primersurfacer as described either in Test Methods D2197 or D3359.6.3.3 The ab
34、ove methods, in addition to measuring theadhesion of the coating to the substrate, can also be used todetermine the intercoat adhesion between the topcoat and theprimer or primer surfacer.6.4 Chemical Resistance:6.4.1 Coating systems frequently come into contact withvarious chemicals that may have a
35、n effect on the properties ofthe system. Failure when it occurs is usually in the form ofdiscoloration, change in gloss, blistering, softening, swelling,dissolving, or loss of adhesion. Unless a primer is to be leftuntopcoated in actual service, primers and primer surfacersshould be topcoated with t

37、 with Practice D2248.6.4.4 Hydrocarbon ResistanceTest hydrocarbon resis-tance in accordance with Method 6011 of U.S. Federal TestMethod Standard No. 141B.6.5 Chip ResistanceThe chip resistance of a primer orprimer surfacer is the ability of a film to withstand suddenimpact from stones, gravel, etc.,
38、 without being loosened fromthe substrate. Determine chip resistance by Test MethodD3170.6.6 Color Difference-Pigmented Dry FilmThe color dif-ferences between two similarly homogeneously colored,opaque film such as those formed by primers or primersurfacers may be determined using visual evaluating
39、tech-niques or by instrumental means. Determine color differencesvisually using Practice D1729. Determine color differencesinstrumentally using Practice D2244.6.7 Cracking ResistanceA test for resistance to tempera-ture and humidity changes, or a cold cracking test as it issometimes called, is desig
40、ned to give an indication of theresistance of a coating system to cracking or checking causedby temperature and humidity changes and also by aging. Thedegree of correlation between accelerated crack results andlong-term room-temperature aging varies with the types ofcoating. The industry uses the te
41、st widely and it is felt that asystem showing good cold crack resistance will performsatisfactorily in service. Some factors that can affect results aretype of substrate, substrate thickness, primer, primer surfacer,topcoat, and film thickness of the different coatings. Determinecracking resistance
42、in accordance with Test Method D2246.6.8 ElongationAn elongation test may be used as anindication of the flexibility of an attached primer or primersurfacer. It can also show whether there is any change duringaging. Determine elongation by Test Methods D522 or D1737.6.9 Filiform Corrosion Resistance
43、Filiform corrosion is atype of corrosion that occurs under coatings on metal substratesand is characterized by a definite thread-like structure anddirectional growth. Determine the susceptibility of organicfilms over metal substrates to this type of corrosion by GuideD2803.6.10 GlossDetermine the gl
44、oss of primers and primersurfacers in accordance with Test Method D523.6.11 HardnessDetermine the film hardness of primers andprimer surfacers in accordance with Test Methods D1474,using either Test Method A (Knoop indentation hardness) orTest Method B (Pfund indentation hardness) as agreed uponbetw
45、een the purchaser and the seller. Other methods ofdetermining hardness may be used as agreed upon between thepurchaser and the seller.6.12 HoldoutHoldout is the ability of a primer or primersurfacer to give a smooth (nonporous), uniform appearancewhen topcoated. This property can be evaluated visual
46、ly or byinstrumental means. One method of measuring for holdout isdescribed in Test Method C540.6.13 Mildew ResistanceTest mildew resistance in accor-dance with Method 6271 of U.S. Federal Test Method StandardNo. 141B or Practice D3456.6.14 Outdoor Exposure:6.14.1 Primers and primer surfacers can ha
47、ve an importanteffect on the durability of any paint system destined for exterioruse. While the accelerated tests given in other sections of thispractice are intended to enable one to predict performance,actual outdoor exposure should be made. Usage of paintsystems is so varied that no one set of co
48、nditions (length ofexposure or place of exposure) can be given in this practice tocover all situations. These conditions as well as the type ofsubstrate, substrate preparation, etc., should be agreed uponbetween the purchaser and the seller. However, it is suggestedthat, unless otherwise agreed upon
49、, prepare panels for outdoorexposure in accordance with Section 4 of this practice.6.14.2 Many properties of organic coating systems shouldbe evaluated periodically throughout the outdoor exposureperiod. Where failures occur on a topcoated system, experienceis required to determine whether or not the primer or primersurfacer is involved. Properties most likely to involve theprimer or primer surfacer may be evaluated as follows:blistering, Test Method D714; cracking, Test Method D661;rusting, Test Method D610; checking, Test Method D660.6.15 Print ResistanceAp
