5、d for 20 Specular Gloss of WaxedPaper33.Terminology3.1 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.2 abrasion resistance of a wax coatingthe resistance tochange in gloss when that coating has been subjected to anabrading action by a hard external object.4.Summary of Test Method4.1 Sixty grams o
6、f sand are dropped at a controlled rate ona very small area of a coating under fixed conditions.Gloss ismeasured with a 20 specular glossmeter before and after thisabrading action by the falling sand.5.Significance and Use5.1 A test method to measure the abrasion resistance ofpetroleum wax coatings
7、on paper and paperboard helps predictthe resistance to change in gloss that coatings may undergo.Anexample of a critical wax coated material is a waxed frozenfood carton,which must resist change in gloss when thepackaging material is handled progressively by the following:the supplier of the packagi
8、ng material,the manufacturer orpackager who combines his product with the packaging mate-rial,the wholesaler,the retailer and eventually the consumer.6.Apparatus6.1 Tube,of glass 25.4 mm(1 in.)in inside diameter and305 mm(12 in.)in length.It shall support a No.12 U.S.Standard Sieve 76 mm(3 in.)from
9、the top of the tube.(Thescreen can be supported by four indentations in the inner glasswall,by means of sandwiching the screen between twowashers which fit tightly inside the glass,or by any othermeans.)6.2 Separatory Funnel,500-mL globular type with a stop-cock of size T4.4The stem must be cut off
10、just below thestopcock.6.3 Standard Sand,5of 20 to 30 mesh meeting Test MethodC 190.The reuse of sand is permitted provided there is noappreciable contamination with foreign particles.Screenthrough a 20-mesh screen to remove coarse impurities.6.4 45 Specimen Holder,of wood,with a precise 45inclined
11、plane on which the test specimen can be held firmly atthis angle.6.5 Spotlight Source,such as a flashlight or a microscopeilluminator,such as Bausch and Lombs Nicholas illuminator.6.6 20 Specular Glossmeter,as used in TAPPI T653-os-70,Specular Gloss of Waxed Paper(20),or Test Method D 1834.7.Samplin
12、g and Test Specimen7.1 For each sample,prepare three specimens each a mini-mum of 76 mm(3 in.)by 152 mm(6 in.).The specimens shallbe so prepared that the abrading by the dropping sand will bealong the coating machine direction if known.If unknown,usethe same orientation for all the specimens.8.Proce
