2、 of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 These test methods describe the determination of severalstages and the rate of dry-film formation
3、of organic coatingsusing straight line and circular mechanical drying-time record-ing devices.The use of mechanical recorders is valuable incomparing the drying behavior of coatings of the same generictype,allowing that one coating may form a gel or resist tearingat a faster rate than another.1.2 Dr
