1、Designation:D 6215 98aStandard Guide forRemoval of Oily Soils from Metal Surfaces1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 6215;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parent
2、heses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon(e)indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This guide covers the determination of the amount of anoily surface removed from a metal surface.1.2 This guide employs the use of a fluorescent dye as at
3、racer to measure the level of residual oil.1.3 This guide is designed to evaluate metal cleaners de-signed or developed for the removal of oily and greasy soilsfrom metal surfaces such as stamping presses,metal cans,metal tanks,and other such items.1.4 This guide employs the use of a generic oily so
4、il.Asthere is no one universal oily soil,the choice of the soil andsubstrate used should be agreed upon by the testing laborato-ry(s)and those using the data to evaluate cleaning performanceprior to testing.1.5 This guide is not intended for use as an evaluation toolfor critical areas,which might in
5、clude surfaces to be painted.1.6 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 and health practices and to determine theapplicability of regulatory limitations p

8、er.The soil is artificially applied to a test metalcoupon.The soiled coupon is then cleaned in a beaker of washliquor using a magnetic stir plate and stir bar.Followingcleaning,the metal coupon is immediately removed to a beakerof extraction solvent to remove any remaining residual oilysoil.The solv
9、ent extract is then measured for fluorescent dyeabsorbance using a spectrophotometer.4.Significance and Use4.1 The guide suggests a laboratory guide for use in thedevelopment of cleaners designed to remove oily based soilsfrom metal surfaces.This guide can be used to evaluate theremoval of numerous
10、oily type soils from a myriad of metalsurfaces.This guide should find use in those industries requiredto clean,among other,metal cans,rolled metals,large indus-trial production machinery,and blending vessels.4.2 This guide employs the use of a fluorescent tracer,which will allow for the accurate qua
11、ntitative measurement ofthe amount of soil removed and will assist in the ranking ofcleaner performance.4.3 This guide will provide a fast and efficient test protocolfor the determination of oily soil removal by a wet cleaningprocess.This guide will result in a time savings over othermethods which t
12、raditionally must allow for a drying step priorto weight loss determinations.Further,the guide will quantitatethe level of soil removed,thus providing a means of evaluatingthe cleanliness of a surface which may not be water break free.5.Apparatus5.1 Beakers,150 and 250 mL.5.2 Volumetric Flasks,100 m
