Kahulugan at Layunin
5.1 Density ay ang bigat sa bawat yunit ng lakas ng tunog. Ito ay isang pangunahing katangian para sa pagkakakilanlan, characterization and quality control of various materials. Density measurements expressed in weight per gallon are commonly used to check paint quality. If the density is not within the specification, there is a high probability of mischarging or other serious problems.

5.2 The test method is suitable for determining the density of paint and related products and components in liquid form. It is particularly applicable when the fluid viscosity is too high or the components are too volatile to determine the density equilibrium.

5.3 This test method provides the maximum accuracy required to determine the hiding power. It is equally suitable for jobs requiring lower accuracy, ignoring recalibration directions and considering temperature differences, and using “weight per gallon” cups as containers.

5.4 Several manufacturers offer automatic equipment for measuring density (see Test Method D4052). Such devices have been used for resins and latex as well as oils and solvents. The results need to be examined very carefully before such devices can be used for a given product. Especially for paints, mga tinta, and resins, bonding, scaling, and other interference with operation may occur.

ASTM D1475-2020 Standard Test Method para sa density ng Liquid Coatings, Mga tinta, at Mga Kaugnay na Produkto

Saklaw ng
1.1 This test method covers the density measurement of paints, mga tinta, varnishes, varnishes and their constituents (except pigments) in liquid form.

1.2 Test method D1963 can be used to determine specific gravity and density in order to obtain higher accuracy when dealing with non-tinted materials (dry oils, varnishments, resins and related materials).

1.3 Values expressed in SI units shall be regarded as standards. Ang mga halaga na ibinigay sa mga panaklong ay para sa sanggunian lamang.

1.3.1 Exception-Density values are expressed in inch-pounds.

1.4 Ang pamantayang ito ay hindi nilayon upang matugunan ang lahat ng mga isyu sa kaligtasan, kung meron man, na nauugnay sa paggamit nito. Responsibilidad ng gumagamit ng pamantayang ito na magtatag ng angkop na kaligtasan, mga kasanayan sa kalusugan at kapaligiran at upang matukoy ang pagiging angkop ng mga paghihigpit sa regulasyon bago gamitin. Specific precautions are given in 8.1.1.1.

1.5 Ang internasyonal na Pamantayang ito ay binuo alinsunod sa mga internasyonal na kinikilalang prinsipyo ng standardisasyon na itinatag sa Desisyon sa mga Prinsipyo para sa Pag unlad ng Internasyonal na Pamantayan, Mga Patnubay at Rekomendasyon na inilabas ng Komite sa mga Teknikal na Hadlang sa Kalakalan ng World Trade Organization.
