5 Principle!Technique
5.1 Method A
The drying residue (or solid content) is determined by weighing before and after a drying process, and is expressed as a percentage of initial weight.
The drying residue contains the proportions of all non volatile components of the primer, i.e. polymers and, in the case of corrosion inhibiting primers, inhibitors.
5.2 Method B
The residue after ignition of corrosion inhibiting primers (corrosion inhibitor content) is determined by weighing the drying residue before and after a glowing process, and Is expressed as a percentage of the drying residue.
6.2 Materials/reagents
Drying agent: silica gel. phosphorus pentoxyde,
7 Test samples
Primers which are stored at temperature below ambient shall be brought to this temperature in their onginal tightly closed containers.
Shake or mix the primer in its original container before taking a sample.
Three samples, approx. 5 grams to 10 grams are required for each determination of drying residue and residue after ignition.
8 Testing procedure
Heat up the crucible to the constant mass point at a temperature 10 °C higher than the drying temperature in 8.1.3 for drying residue determination, or than the ignition temperature in 8.2.1 if the residue after ignition is to be determined.
Then cool the crucible to ambient temperature In the dessicator fitted with the suitable drying agent.
8.1 Drying residue
NOTE Use appropriate air extraction.
8.1.1 Weigh the crucible to the nearest milligram (m1).
8.1.2 Place the sample of primer in the crucible and weigh simultaneously to the nearest milligram (rn2).
8.1.3 Dry the sample of primer to the constant mass point at the processing temperature defined in the relevant material standard. Care shall be taken during heat up to avoid boiling of the sample.
8.1.4 Cool the crucible and sample to ambient temperature in the dessicator, and weigh to the nearest milligram (m3).
8.2 Residue after ignition
Use the residue obtained in 8.1 for the determination of residue after ignition.
