1、Designation:D475210(Reapproved 2015)Standard Practice forMeasuring MEK Resistance of Ethyl Silicate(Inorganic)Zinc-Rich Primers by Solvent Rub1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D4752;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the c
2、ase 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 This practice describes a solvent rub technique forassessing the MEK resistance of ethyl silica
3、te(inorganic)zinc-rich primers.The MEK resistance of some two-component ethyl silicate zinc-rich primers has been shown tocorrelate well with the cure of the primer as determined bydiffuse reflectance infrared spectroscopy.2The technique canbe used in the laboratory,field,or in the fabricating shop.
4、Practice D5402 is the preferred method for organic coatings.1.2 The values stated in SI units 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 theresp
