5、gree of attack upon a ceramic decoration bya 10%citric acid solution and a nominal 3.7%hydrochloricacid solution.4.Significance and Use4.1 This test method evaluates the quality and serviceabilityof a ceramic decoration on architectural type glass.The degreeof attack is determined using an acidic so
6、lution both quantita-tively and qualitatively.4.2 This test method provides a convenient control testduring the manufacture of the ware.4.3 This test method is suitable for specification acceptance.5.Reagent5.1Purity of Reagents Reagent grade chemicals shall beused in all tests.Unless otherwise indi
7、cated,it is intended thatall reagents shall conform to the specifications of the Commit-tee on Analytical Reagents of the American Chemical Society,where such specifications are available.2Other grades may beused,provided it is first ascertained that the reagent is ofsufficiently high purity to perm
