The work of
18、 preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental
19、, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main
20、task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Atten
21、tion is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 4628-6 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 35, Paints and varnishes, Subcommittee SC 9, General
22、 test methods for paints and varnishes. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 4628-6:2007), which has been technically revised. The main changes are as follows: a) the pictorial standards (photographic pictures) used in the first edition (ISO 4628-6:1990) have been re-inser
23、ted because the computer-generated chalking scale used in the second edition (ISO 4628-6:2007) did not always give the same rating as that given by the scale used in the first edition (for more details, see the Introduction); b) a limiting value of the transmittance of the tape below which chalking
24、is considered to have taken place has been added (see 5.2). ISO 4628 consists of the following parts, under the general title: Paints and varnishes Evaluation of degradation of coatings Designation of quantity and size of defects, and of intensity of uniform changes in appearance: Part 1: General in
25、troduction and designation system Part 2: Assessment of degree of blistering Part 3: Assessment of degree of rusting Part 4: Assessment of degree of cracking Part 5: Assessment of degree of flaking Part 6: Assessment of degree of chalking by tape method Part 7: Assessment of degree of chalking by ve

27、uantity and size of defects and the intensity of uniform changes of coatings and outlines the general principles of the system. This system is intended to be used, in particular, for defects caused by ageing and weathering, and for uniform changes such as colour changes, for example yellowing. The o
28、ther parts of ISO 4628 provide pictorial standards or other means for evaluating particular types of defect. As far as possible, already existing evaluation schemes have been used as the basis. The chalking scale used in the first (1990) edition and in this third edition of ISO 4628-6 consists of ph
29、otographic pictures of adhesive tapes with different amounts of pigment particles adhering to them. The pigment particles are not evenly distributed over each tape. The lower ratings in particular (i.e. 1 to 3) give the impression of cloudiness. All five ratings in the scale used in the first (1990)
30、 edition and in this edition are sufficiently different for visual-assessment purposes, however. The scale used in the second (2007) edition was computer-generated. Thus the white dots representing the pigment particles were distributed very evenly over the tape, with the result that not all the rat
31、ings differed sufficiently well from each other for visual assessment to be carried out. While ratings 0,5 to 3,0 on the black background on the 2007 scale could be differentiated sufficiently well from each other, it was hardly possible to differentiate visually between ratings above 3,0, especiall
32、y ratings 4 and 5. On the white background, the difference between ratings 0,5, 1,0 and 1,5 was not easy to discern. The differences between ratings 1,5 to 5,0 were more evident, however. Comparing the 1990 scale with the 2007 scale, it would appear that rating 1 on the 1990 scale corresponded to 0,
33、5 on the 2007 scale, and rating 2 on the 1990 scale corresponded to 1 on the 2007 scale. It was therefore decided that the 2007 scale was unsuitable for use in the visual assessment of the degree of chalking of paints over the whole rating scale from 0,5 to 5,0.

35、e degree of chalking by the tape method, it is necessary to use the pictorial reference standards contained in this part of ISO 4628. Owing to the fact that electronic copies of these standards are subject to change when viewed on screen or printed, it is recommended that only the pictorial standard
36、s contained in printed copies of this part of ISO 4628 purchased from ISO member bodies or their distributors be used when comparing test results. 1 Scope This part of ISO 4628 provides pictorial reference standards for designating the degree of chalking of paint coatings. It also describes a method
37、 by which the degree of chalking is rated. In using this method, it is essential that care be taken to distinguish between true degradation products and adhering dirt, particularly when chalking is slight. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions
38、 apply. 2.1 chalking appearance of a loosely adherent fine powder on the surface of a paint coating, arising from the degradation of one or more of its constituents 3 Principle The chalking is removed from the coating under test using an adhesive tape. The chalking adhering to the tape is examined a
39、gainst a contrasting background (either black or white, whichever gives the greater contrast) and the degree of chalking is assessed with reference to a rating scale. 4 Materials 4.1 Self-adhesive transparent tape, of width at least 15 mm. Commercially available flexible tapes, transparent and witho
40、ut perceptible colour, have been found to be satisfactory. However, the quality of the tape affects the rating obtained. The type of tape shall therefore be agreed on between the interested parties and shall be stated in the test report. 4.2 Background, black or white, with matt finish, for example
41、card or velvet having a short pile without a tendency to be crushed. BS EN ISO 4628-6:2011ISO 4628-6:2011(E) 2 ISO 2011 All rights reserved5 Procedure 5.1 Allow the surface to dry at room temperature before carrying out the test. Place a piece of the adhesive tape (4.1) on the dry coating by applyin
42、g firm pressure and rubbing with a finger. The length of the tape should be at least 40 mm. Remove the tape perpendicularly to the surface and lay it on a background (4.2) of the appropriate colour to give the greater contrast, with the adhesive in contact with the background. Assess light-coloured
43、coatings on the black background and dark-coloured coatings on the white background. Under consistent illumination, immediately assess (see 5.5) the degree of chalking by comparing the amount of chalk on the tape with the pictorial reference standards in Figure 1. The more background that is visible
44、, the lower the rating. Report the illumination in the test report. 5.2 The degree of chalking may also be determined quantitatively using a suitable photoelectric instrument to compare the transmittance of the chalked tape with that of unused tape. In this procedure, the adhesive tape shall not be
45、placed on a background (4.2) but on a clean glass slide or open support, which is placed in the optical beam of the instrument2,3. A transmittance of less than 70 % of that of the unused tape indicates chalking. This instrumental method shall only be used if the pattern of chalking residues on the t
46、ape is homogeneous. 5.3 The degree of chalking can vary over a given area. On large areas with a uniform surface (no texture), the determination should preferably be made at several locations and the mean and range reported. Apply the tape to an area of the panel that has not been used for previous
47、measurements to avoid false readings. 5.4 Ratings obtained with coatings exposed to natural weathering shall be treated with caution as dirt deposited on the surface from the atmosphere can give false values of chalking. 5.5 After removing the chalking from the coating under test, the assessment of
48、each piece of adhesive tape shall be carried out without delay because the appearance of the chalking residues on the adhesive tape and the transmittance of the tape might change with time. 5.6 When testing low-gloss paint coatings, a certain amount of loosely adherent material might be observed, ev
49、en with unweathered panels. A blank test, carried out on an unweathered panel, is therefore recommended for such coatings. 6 Rating Rate the degree of chalking by reference to the pictorial standards shown in Figure 1. NOTE The numerical values given correspond to those in ISO 4628-1. For textured surfaces, the rating shall be based on the observations of the most intensively chalked parts of the tape.
