6、tandards of Paint Roller Spatter43. Summary of Test Method3.1 The test paint is applied to a black plastic panel bydraw-down. The coated plastic panel is immediately mountedon an essentially vertical surface above a sheet of paper used tocatch any spatter. A specially designed notched spool roller(s
7、ee 5.1) is rolled through the film following a definedprocedure, tending to generate spatter. Any spatter falls uponthe spatter catch paper and, after drying, is rated against thepictorial standards.4. Significance and Use4.1 Paint spatter generated by roller application is depen-dent on the propert
8、ies of both the paint being applied and thepaint roller cover used for the application. To eliminate theinfluence of the paint roller cover as a variable, and thus restrictthe spatter-inducing variable to the paint under test only, thepaint roller cover is replaced by a standard notched spool roller
9、to generate spatter by a mechanism that simulates that of apaint-applying roller cover.4.2 Although most of the development work to establish thistest method was undertaken using latex paints, sufficient workwas also done to show its applicability to solvent-reduciblepaints.4.3 Tests during the deve
10、lopment of this test methodshowed that the spattering properties of paints, like otherphysical properties, may in time change. Therefore, the resultsof this test are valid only for the time when the test is run.5. Apparatus5.1 Notched Spool Test Roller (Fig. 1).5,65.2 Glass Plateat least 230 by 485

Sampling and Conditioning7.1 Sample the material in accordance with Practice D3925.7.2 Prior to testing, the samples shall be conditioned inaccordance with the standard atmosphere described in Speci-fication D3924. The testing shall take place under the sameconditions
20、.8. Procedure8.1 Clean the top of the glass plate and both sides of theblack plastic panel to ensure that they are free of specks. Placethe black plastic panel on the glass plate and tape the narrowend at the top to the glass plate. Smooth the panel along theplate to ensure a close fit.8.2 Stir the
21、paint under test thoroughly and strain to removeall skins and particles. Place the film caster with the 175-m(7.0-mil) side down immediately below the taped portion of theblack plastic panel. Turn on the metronome. Into the wellformed by the film caster, pour sufficient paint that the well isfilled
22、from corner to corner. Draw down the paint the fulllength of the black plastic panel until the film caster is fullybeyond the far edge. The rate of application should be fairlyslow, 3 to 4 seconds from end to end, to prevent pinholes orholidays in the paint film.8.3 Immediately upon completion of th
23、e draw-down, re-move the black plastic panel from the glass plate, keeping themasking tape intact, and tape, with the long direction verticalto a surface that is vertical or nearly vertical (within 5 ofvertical, top sloping away from the operator) with the bottomof the black plastic panel about 25 m
24、m (1 in.) above thelaboratory bench or table (Fig. 2). It is desirable that the surfaceunder the black plastic panel be firm but with a little resilience.A backing of 6-mm (14-in.) thick fiberboard is ideal as veryhard surfaces make proper performance of the test difficult.Center the spatter catch p

Each pass should coincide with a beat of themetronome and the motion should be continuous, not jerky.Use the metronom
29、e for accurate timing since the speed of therolling of the notched spool roller through the paint film hasbeen found to be the only variable significantly affecting theresults of the test. Make sure that all four flanges of the notchedspool roller are within the draw-down area at all times. Usesuffi

Note that aslong as constant contact is maintained, pressure variations havenot been found to affect the results noticeably.8.5 Remove the spatter catch paper and lay it in a suitableplace to dry

35、uch precision is obtained.10. Precision and Bias10.1 In an interlaboratory study of this test method in whichone operator in each of three laboratories tested six paints witha broad range in spattering properties, one operator in twoother laboratories tested three of the paints and one operator inon
36、e laboratory tested only two paints, the between-laboratoriesstandard deviation was found to be 0.17 rating units (see Note2) with 18 df, with no results discarded. Based on this standarddeviation, the following criteria should be used for judging theacceptability of results at the 95 % confidence l
37、evel:10.1.1 RepeatabilityIntralaboratory precision is normallybetter than interlaboratory precision. However, when rating isinvolved, it is difficult to establish reliability because of thenatural tendency for bias when operators know the samematerial is being tested again.NOTE 2When the results wer
38、e ranked, the agreement among the sixoperators was perfect. This might not occur if some paints with lessdistinct differences in spattering properties were included in a similarstudy.10.1.2 ReproducibilityTwo results obtained by operatorsin different laboratories should be considered suspect if they
39、differ by more than 0.5 units.10.2 BiasBias can not be determined for this test methodbecause there is no standard reference material.11.
