1、Designation:D279399(Reapproved 2017)Standard Test Method forBlock Resistance of Organic Coatings on Wood PanelSubstrates1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D2793;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the ye
2、ar 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 test method covers the determination of the blockresistance of organic coatings on wood and wood-based panelsubs
3、trates.Block resistance is the ability of a coating to resiststicking to another surface and to resist any change inappearance when it is pressed against that surface for aprolonged period of time.1.2 General methods for determining block resistance areoutlined in Sections 6 and 7.Variations inheren
4、t in usermaterials and procedures,however,may dictate adjustments tothe general method to improve accuracy.Paragraphs 7.3 and7.4 provide guidelines for tailoring the general procedure to ausers specific application.Paragraph 7.5 offers a rating meth-odology.1.3 Test Method D2091 should be used for t

8、.1 ASTM Standards:2D2091 Test Method for Print Resistance of Lacquers3.Summary of Test Method3.1 The coatings are prepared for testing in a mannerduplicating production application and curing conditions asnearly as possible on the specified wood substrate.Then a stackof these painted substrates is f
9、ormed and subjected to aspecified pressure and temperature for a sufficient time todevelop any sticking tendencies that exist.The pressure isreleased and the painted surfaces are examined for any signs ofsticking or pressure mottling.If blocking(forming a block bypanels sticking together)occurs,the
10、material is unsatisfactory.If no sticking or damage to the film surface occurs,the materialis satisfactory.3.2 When the conditions of production finishing are estab-lished and known,the method of application,the substrate,filmthickness,and cure of the film should duplicate these condi-tions as close
11、ly as possible.However,some acceleration of thetest may be possible with more severe conditions.4.Significance and Use4.1 Coated wood panel products must be stacked face toface or face to back during warehousing,packaging,andtransportation without the coated finish sticking(blocking)andbecoming dama
12、ged.This test method describes a laboratorymeans of evaluating conditions of blocking using factors ofpressure,heat,time and moisture.4.2 Degrees of hardness or degrees of cure of organiccoatings,or both,can be evaluated using a blocking test.4.3 The rate of volatile loss(drying speed)of organiccoat
13、ings can be evaluated using a blocking test.4.4 The effectiveness of protective packaging materials(slipsheets)for organic coatings on wood substrates can be evalu-ated using a blocking test.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D01 on Paintand Related Coatings,Materials,and
