1、Designation:D506407(Reapproved 2012)Standard Practice forConducting a Patch Test to Assess Coating Compatibility1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5064;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.1.Scope1.1 This practice covers the procedures for testing coatingcompatibility when maintenance of an in-place coating systemis being c
3、ontemplated.It does not cover procedures forassessing the integrity of the existing coating to determine if itcan be repainted,nor does it establish the compatibility of themaintenance coating system with the substrate or corrosionproducts.The practice is intended for use in the field.NOTE1Pass-Fail
4、 Criteria(for example,adhesion requirements)arenot established by this practice.These should be established by the user orspecifier with input from the supplier.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard.The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.3 This standa

10、 determined.5.Significance and Use5.1 In performing maintenance of a coating system,the newcoating being applied must be compatible with the existingcoating.While general guides exist which indicate compatibil-ity of different generic types of coatings,differences inmanufacturers formulation and the
11、 condition of the in-placecoating may affect compatibility.6.Procedure6.1 Select test locations for evaluation that properly charac-terize differences in configuration of the structure and expo-sure;that is,vertical versus horizontal surfaces and shelteredversus unsheltered exposure.Aminimum of thre
