1、Designation: D 6491 99 (Reapproved 2003)Standard Practice forEvaluation of Aging Resistance of Prestressed PrepaintedMetal In a Dry Heat Test1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 6491; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the
2、 case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice can be used to evaluate the resistance of aprestressed prepainted metal
3、panel to cracking, or loss ofadhesion, or both, after accelerated heat aging. Most coilcoated products are formed and bent into specific shapes toproduce a final product. These operations introduce stresses,which may be relieved by cracking of the coating after aging.1.2 The values stated in SI unit
4、s are to be regarded as thestandard. The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health prac
