1、Designation:B91601(Reapproved 2017)Standard Test Method forAdherence of Porcelain Enamel Coatings to Sheet Metal1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B916;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of las
2、t revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThe purpose of this test is to provide a standardized procedure to determine and rate the impactadhesion of porcelain enamels
3、 on sheet steel.1.Scope1.1 The scope of this test method is:1.1.1 To determine quantitatively the amount of enamelremaining after the porcelain enamel coating specimen hasbeen deformed;1.1.2 To standardize the deformation parameters for testingadherence of porcelain enamel to sheet metal;and,1.1.3 T
4、o provide a quantitative adherence rating scale forcomparison to reference standards.1.2 This adherence test method is applicable to porcelainenamel coatings on substrates from 18 to 24 gauge(0.0478 to0.025 in.or from 1.214 to 0.654 mm).1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas
5、standard.The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.4 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 st
6、andard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.5 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principles on standard-ization established in the Decision on Principles f

8、t enamels,is an important procedure formonitoring process variables in metal preparation,enamelapplication thickness,steel selection,and enamel selection,aswell as assuring the ultimate quality of the finished product.3.Apparatus3.1 Drop Weight Deformation Device2,see Figs.1 and 2.3.2 The drop weigh
9、t deformation device as shown in Fig.1shall impart a single impact blow from a hemisphericalindenter to a coated specimen supported over a sharp-edgedbottomless die.The area of the deformation and the concomi-cant damage to the coating is largely influenced by the size ofthe hemispherical indenter;t
10、he die opening size and edgesharpness;and,the energy of the blow at impact.3.3 A satisfactory degree of deformation and damage areobtained if the conditions in 3.2 use the following parameters:0.50 in.(12.7 mm)diameter hemispherical indenter,0.75 in.(19.1 mm)diameter bottomless die(lower plunger gui
11、de inFig.1)with sharp edge,and 80 in./lb(9.03 J)energy at impact.3.4 Deformation Devices,of other designs may be usedprovided that the parameters in 3.3 are used.3.5 Adherence Reference Standards,see 7.1.4.Test Specimens4.1 The test specimens shall be flat enameled panels not lessin size than 4 in.2
12、(101.6 mm2).Larger sizes and shapes may beused provided that a flat surface can be held firmly against andparallel to the lower plunger guide during deformation.5.Safety Precautions5.1 During the procedure in 6.1,fine enameled chips may bereleased with some force from the steel surface;therefore,it
