1、Designation:A754/A754M18Standard Test Method forCoating Weight(Mass)of Metallic Coatings on Steel byX-Ray Fluorescence1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A754/A754M;the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or,in the case of revision,the
2、 year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This test method covers the use of X-ray fluorescence(XRF)for determining the coating weight(mass)of metalliccoa
3、tings on steel sheet.The test method is intended to be usedfor“on-line”measurements of coating on continuous produc-tion lines.1.2 This test method is applicable to the coatings covered bythe following ASTM specifications:A463/A463M,A599/A599M,A623,A623M,A653/A653M,A792/A792M,A875/A875M,A879/A879M,A
4、918,A924/A924M,A1046/A1046M,A1063/A1063M,and A1079.It may be applicable toother coatings,providing that the elemental nature of thecoating and substrate are compatible with the technical aspectsof XRF such as the absorption coefficient of the system,primary radiation,fluorescent radiation,type of de
5、tection.1.3 This test method includes the procedure for developinga single standard determination of coating weight(mass).1.4 This test method includes procedures for both X-raytube and isotope coating weight(mass)measuring instruments.1.5 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare
6、to be regarded separately as standard.Within the text,theSI units are shown in brackets.The values stated in eachsystem are not exact equivalents;therefore,each system shallbe used independently of the other.Combining values from thetwo systems may result in nonconformance with the specifi-cation.1.
7、6 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety,health,and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.7 Th
