29、 given in EN 13523-0:2014 apply. 4 Principle The method consists of exposing a test panel to humidity, for a pre-determined time, at a specified temperature. The test panel is evaluated for any changes such as blistering or corrosion (e.g. red rust, white rust). Both continuous and cyclic humidity t
30、ests can be carried out. BS EN 13523-25:2014EN 13523-25:2014 (E) 6 5 Apparatus Ordinary laboratory apparatus and glassware, together with the following: 5.1 Humidity cabinet with air temperature control, capable of achieving relative humidity of approx. 100 % with condensation on the test panels. It
31、 should also ensure dry periods by adequate purging or allow for the cabinet door to be left open during the dry period. 5.2 Cutting tool, with a hard metal tip having a radius capable of exposing at least 0,2 mm of metal substrate; as specified in EN ISO 17872. 6 Sampling See EN 13523-0. 7 Test pan
32、els See EN 13523-0. The panels (usually 150 mm 100 mm) shall be cut from flat material and free from contamination. The longer side shall be in the rolling direction. If not otherwise specified, the edges are exposed and the reverse side is protected. If not otherwise specified, the edges of exposed
33、 panels shall be sheared with the burrs away from the test surface. 8 Procedure 8.1 Preparation Scribing or bending of test panels to evaluate blistering and corrosion phenomena at the scribes or at the bend is optional. In case of scribing, the scribes shall be prepared by means of the cutting tool
34、 (5.2) and extend down just through the organic coating. The scribed indentation shall expose at least 0,2 mm of metal substrate. If the substrate is zinc- or zinc-alloy coated steel, the scratch shall be to the zinc coating, and not down to the steel. Two configurations are possible: either two scr
35、ibes arranged diagonally, crossing each other in the middle of the specimen and extending to about 20 mm from the edges (see Figure 1); or two scribes of equal length arranged at 90 to each other, the scribes being at least 40 mm in length with the vertical scribe central to the horizontal but separ
36、ated by 20 mm. All scribes shall extend at least 20 mm from the edges (see Figure 2).

Expose the test panels in the humidity cabinet at an angle of between 15 and 25 to the vertica
38、l. If a different angle is used, it shall be stated in the test report. The test panels may be exposed to different combinations of relative humidity (RH) and temperature (t) for a specified exposure time. Table 1 summarises some typical conditions (other conditions and cycles may be agreed). Table
39、1 Typical conditions for humidity testing Test duration Conditions / Cycles Continuous humidity test 500 h (21 days) t = (40 3) C, RH approximately 100 % with condensation on the test specimens Cyclic humidity test, dry periods 500 h (21 days) Each cycle consists of two periods: Period 1: 8 h t = (4
40、0 3) C RH approximately 100 % with condensation on the test specimens Period 2: 16 h including cooling down (climatic chamber open or ventilated) t = (23 3) C RH approaching ambient 8.3 Evaluation 8.3.1 General Examine the test panels periodically. Inspection time shall be as short as possible as fu
41、rther changes can occur outside the cabinet. The point in the cycle when the panels were evaluated shall be stated in the test report. At the end of the required test exposure remove the test panels from the humidity cabinet, carefully wipe off surface moisture with a soft tissue and immediately con
42、duct the final evaluation. If required, take pictures to record any change caused by exposure. 8.3.2 Overall surface (flat surface of the panel) The overall surface shall be inspected for blisters in accordance with EN ISO 4628-2 and corrosion in accordance with EN ISO 4628-3. 8.3.3 Edges, scribes a
43、nd bends (as applicable) Edges, scribes and bends shall be examined for defects: e.g. filiform corrosion in accordance with EN ISO 4628-10, delamination and corrosion around a scribe in accordance with EN ISO 4628-8, blisters in accordance with EN ISO 4628-2 and rust (white or red) in accordance wit
44、h EN ISO 4628-3. To determine the time of the on-set of defects, limited intermediate inspections of test panels may be carried out. BS EN 13523-25:2014EN 13523-25:2014 (E) 9 Cracking and flaking in accordance with EN ISO 4628-4 and EN ISO 4628-5 are not frequently observed in humidity testing, but
45、shall also be evaluated if they occur. 9 Expression of results The results shall be expressed as: Overall surface: degree of blistering degree of rusting Edges, scribes and bends: the type of defect: filiform corrosion, delamination and corrosion, blistering, rust (white or red). for each type of de
46、fect the measurements shall be given: mean and maximum length and/or size of defects in millimetres, percentage area of edge, scribe or bend affected. Any other observation. 10 Precision No precision data are currently available. 11 Test report The test report shall contain at least the following in
47、formation: a) all details necessary to identify the product tested; b) a reference to this part of EN 13523 (EN 13523-25); c) the preparation of the test panel; d) the type of cutting tool used; e) applied test conditions, including duration of the test, temperature, humidity and cycles; f) the resu
48、lts of the test, as indicated in Clause 9; g) any deviation from the test method specified; h) any unusual features (anomalies) observed during the test; i) the date(s) of the test.
