ASTM D1146 Blocking Point of Potentially Adhesive Layers
The ASTM D1146 test method includes the determination of the blocking point of a thermoplastic or hygroscopic layer or coating of a potentially adhesive material. Cohesive blocking (blocking of two comparable, sticky faces) and adhesive blocking (blocking of an adhesive face and a test paper) are discussed in this test.
Scope:
The blocking point of potentially adhesive material is determined using the ASTM D1146 test procedure. Because some potentially adhesive compounds are both thermoplastic and hygroscopic, this test method allows for assessing both thermoplastic and hygroscopic blocking on the same material. Because certain criteria are more stringent than others, ASTM D1146 recognizes and defines two different degrees of blocking: first-degree blocking and second-degree blocking.
Procedure:
In ASTM D1146, two conditioned test specimens are placed, adhesive face to adhesive face, on a glass plate for cohesive blocking. Three squares of standard paper are stacked on the adhesive face of a conditioned test specimen for adhesive blocking, and a glass is placed on top. The edges of the test specimens, standard paper, and glass plate are all flush. A 0.45-kg (1-lb) weight is placed in the center of the 38-mm (1/2-in.) square area on top of the aligned specimens. Each of the following types of tests is done in triplicate, as per ASTM D1146:
For thermoplastic blocking, the above test assemblies are placed immediately in a desiccator over an anhydrous calcium chloride solution at (38 ± 1°C) for 24 h. For hygroscopic blocking, the test assemblies are placed immediately in a desiccator at approximately 50% relative humidity and at (38 ± 1°C) for 24 h. The test assemblies are then removed and allowed to cool to room temperature before being inspected and the degree of conformance is noted. The degree of blocking would then be categorized as free, first-degree blocking, second-degree blocking, or any other degrees of blocking agreed upon in line.

Specimen size:
The ASTM D1146 test technique employs adhesive specimens with a size of 38 mm (1 ½ inch) in square forms.
Data:
The results of all determinations undertaken, including the critical temperature or (alternatively) the highest temperature utilized for thermoplastic blocking/hygroscopic blocking, or any other crucial phenomenon, are reported in accordance with ASTM D1146.
Conclusion:
The blocking point of potentially adhesive material is determined using the ASTM D1146 test procedure.
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.
