Kahulugan at paggamit
4.1 For manufacturers and buyers of coatings, the importance of the evaluation of resistance to flow in quality control is needless to say. Real-world application tests are less reproducible, and viscosity methods, such as test method D2196, are very time consuming and lack compelling aspects of real flow hanging. The method provides a simple and fast test in which the current hang resistance is demonstrated by a visible drooping pattern and an objective rating is given based on the numerical values associated with the spawn test observations.

ASTM D4400-2018 “Determination of Paint Resistance by Multi-Notch Coater”

Radius
1.1 This test method covers laboratory determination of the flow resistance of aqueous and non-aqueous liquid coatings at any flow resistance level.

1.2 Values expressed in SI units or inch-pound units shall be treated as standard values separately. The values specified in each system may not be fully equivalent; Kaya nga, bawat sistema ay dapat gamitin nang malaya sa isa't isa. Combining values from two systems may result in non-compliance.

Tala 1: Since the Commission is aware that one manufacturer of the applicator is aware of manufacturing in inch-pounds, reference to the applicator will be taken as the standard.
