3、This practice covers the evaluation and comparison ofthe transfer efficiency of spray-applied coatings under generallaboratory conditions.Transfer efficiency is the ratio of paintsolids deposited to the total paint solids used during theapplication process,expressed as a percent.This practice canbe
4、used to study the effect on transfer efficiency of changingoperating variables and paint formulations.Key variables thatneed to be controlled are listed in 8.13.NOTE1It is important that all process or formulation parameters,except that which is intentionally being changed,be kept consistent fromtes

6、 variables and liquid paintformulations on transfer efficiency under conditions of thelaboratory test:the magnitude of the effect can be determinedonly with specific plant experience.In fact,the nature of thecritical parameters that affect transfer efficiency makes clearthat it is not possible to ex
7、trapolate laboratory results.NOTE2The laboratory practice outlined involves general laboratoryspray equipment and procedures and is derived from Test Method D5009.This practice and Test Method D5009 are both derived from a study andreport of transfer efficiency measurements conducted for the U.S.Env
