ASTM G85 Modified Salt Spray (Fog) Testing
The modified salt spray testing is done by ASTM G85 practice that is applicable to metals (non ferrous and ferrous) and coatings (organic and inorganic). The end results are reported as concentration or specific gravity.
Scope:
ASTM G85 practice is used for modified salt spray (fog) testing. ASTM G85 practice is based on ASTM B117 but it provides more aggressive test parameters like test solution with a lower pH, changing between the neutral and corrosive atmosphere, or a dilute electrolyte mix. ASTM G85 provides five types of salt spray (fog) testing for specification purposes: acetic acid, cyclic acidified, cyclic seawater acidified, cyclic sulfur dioxide, and dilute electrolyte cyclic fog dry test. This practice is useful for nonferrous/ferrous metals, and organic/inorganic coatings.
Test Procedure:
As defined by ASTM G85, the samples (spaced at about 30 mm) are suspended at a particular angle to the direction of horizontal flow of the fog spray via the spray chamber. Severity of the test is increased by increasing the angle of suspension. The samples are sprayed for 24 hrs. At the end of the test, the samples are gently dipped or washed in clean water to remove salt deposits from their surface. Finally, the samples are dried using a stream of clean and compressed air.
Sample size:
For ASTM G85, the number and type of test sample are defined as per client’s requirement.
Data:
The following data is used in ASTM G85:
Concentration or specific gravity at 35°C (95°F) The pH of the collected solution
Conclusion:
The modified salt spray testing is done by ASTM G85 practice that is applicable to metals (non ferrous and ferrous) and coatings (organic and inorganic).
ASTM E572 test method covers the analysis of stainless and alloy steels by Wavelength Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometry (WDXRF). It provides rapid, multi-element determinations with sufficient accuracy to assure product quality.
The ASTM D2674 test is a standard test method for the analysis of sulfochromate etch solutions used in the surface preparation of aluminum. The ASTM D2674 standard specifies a method for determining the efficacy of an etchant used to prepare the surface of aluminum alloys for subsequent adhesive bonding.
An immunological method for quantization of Hevea Natural Rubber (HNRL) proteins using rabbit anti-HNRL serum. Rabbits immunized with HNRL proteins react to the majority of the proteins present, and their sera have the capability to detect most if not all the proteins in HNRL.
ASTM G65 measures the resistance of metallic materials to abrasion using the dry sand/rubber wheel apparatus. The quality, durability, and toughness of the sample are determined using this test. Metallic materials are ranked in their resistance to scratching abrasion under a controlled environment.
ASTM E2141 test methods provide accelerated aging and monitoring of the performance of time-dependent electrochromic devices (ECD) integrated in insulating glass units (IGU). This test helps to understand the relative serviceability of electrochromic glazings applied on ECD.
ASTM C724 test method is used in analyzing the quality and ease of maintenance of a ceramic decoration on architectural-type glass. This test method is useful in the acknowledgment of technical standards.
