1、Designation:D147513(Reapproved 2020)Standard Test Method forDensity of Liquid Coatings,Inks,and Related Products1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D1475;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of la
2、st revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S.Department of Defense.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers the measurement
3、of density ofpaints,inks,varnishes,lacquers,and components thereof,otherthan pigments,when in fluid form.1.2 For higher precision when working with nonpigmentedmaterials(drying oils,varnishes,resins and related materials),Test Method D1963 can be used to determine specific gravityand,thence,density.
4、1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard.The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.3.1 ExceptionThe values for density are to be stated ininch-pound units.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use

11、f the paint liquid contentsof the same container at the standard temperature(25C)or atan agreed-upon temperature is then determined and density ofthe contents calculated in terms of grams per millilitre,orpounds per gallon at the specified temperature.5.Significance and Use5.1 Density is weight per
12、unit volume.It is a key property inthe identification,characterization,and quality control of awide range of materials.Density measurements in terms ofweight per gallon are commonly used to check paint quality.Ifthe density is not within specification,there is a good chancethat there was a mischarge
