1、Designation:D532694a(Reapproved 2013)Standard Test Method forColor Development in Tinted Latex Paints1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5326;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision
2、.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 This test method covers a procedure for measuring colordevelopment in tinted latex paints,for the purpose of deter-mining the efficiency

10、 test paint is applied by drawing it down on a stripedblack and white sealed chart,at a film thickness sufficient toobtain full hiding.4.2 A portion of the drawdown is subjected to strongshearing forces in a prescribed brushing procedure.4.3 The CIELAB color difference between the drawdownand sheare
11、d areas after drying,is reported as a measure ofdeficiency in the color development of the test paint.5.Significance and Use5.1 A colorant sometimes fails to disperse completely in abase paint due to poor compatibility,which can be the fault ofthe colorant,the paint,or both.This will result in poor
12、colordevelopment,which is readily manifested by the commonprocedure of applying the paint with a doctor blade andsubjecting the drawdown to high shear stress by finger-rubbinga small area of the partially dry film.This tends to disperse1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D0
