Standard Practice for
Testing Chromate Coatings on Zinc and Cadmium Surfaces1
This standard is issued under thefixed designation B201;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of
original adoption or,in the ca of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parenthes indicates the year of last reapproval.A
superscript epsilon(e)indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.
This standard has been approved for u by agencies of the Department of Defen.
1.Scope
1.1This practice covers a procedure for evaluating the protective value of chemical and electrochemical conversion coatings produced by chromate treatments of zinc and cad-mium surfaces.
1.2The protective value of a chromate coating is usually determined by salt-spray test and by determining whether or not the coating posss adequate abrasion resistance.
1.3Other methods,such as exposure to a humidity environ-ment,can be ud,but are generally of too long a duration to be of practical value.“Steam Tests”using pressure cookers have also been ud for testing chromatefilms on hot-dip galvanized surfaces.
1.4This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,if any,associated with its u.It is the responsibility of the ur of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to u.

3.1Descriptions of Terms:
3.1.1time to failure—time to failure will depend on the type of coating tested.A list of some expected protective values obtainable in a given salt spray test is shown in Appendix X2.
3.1.1.1Discussion—In most instances,failure is defined as thefirst appearance on significant surfaces of white corrosion products visible to the unaided eye at normal reading distance, except that the prence of white corrosion products at sharp edges(for example,on threaded fasteners)and
at junctions between dissimilar metals should not be considered failure.In some instances,it may be desirable to regard thefirst appear-ance of red rust as failure.

3.1.2significant surfaces—in general,significant surfaces are tho surfaces that are visible and subject to corrosion or wear,or both,except that surfaces that are normally difficult to coat by electroplating or mechanical deposition may be ex-empt.The designation of significant surfaces may be indicated on the drawing.
4.Significance and U
公主图片动漫图片4.1This practice is applicable to chromate coatings of the colorless(both one and two-dip),iridescent yellow or bronze, olive drab,black,colorless anodic,yellow or black anodic types,and of the dyed variety,when applied to surfaces of electrodeposited zinc,mechanically deposited zinc,hot-dipped zinc,rolled zinc,electrodeposited cadmium,mechanically deposited cadmium,and zinc die castings.
N OTE1—Colorless coatings are also referred to as clear-bright or blue-bright coatings.
4.2Becau of variables inherent in the salt-spray test, which may differ from one test cabinet to another,interpreta-tion of test results for compliance with expected performance should be specified by the purchar.
4.3Properties such as thickness,color,luster,and ability to provide good paint adhesion are not covered in this practice, nor are the chemical composition and the method of applica-tion of thefinishes.
5.Conditioning
5.1Aging—Before subjecting a chromate coating to test,it must be aged at room temperature in a clean environment for at least24h after the chromating treatment.

5.2Preparation of Specimen—The test surface must be free offingerprints and other extraneous stains and must not be cleaned except by gentle wiping with a clean,dry,soft cloth to remove loo particles.Oily or greasy surfaces should not be ud for testing,and degreasing with organic solvents is not recommended.

6.Procedure
6.1Salt Spray Test—Expo the clean specimen to a5% solution salt spray and conduct the test in accordance with the latest revision of Practice B11
7.Unless otherwi specified, only tho surfaces that are positioned in the test chamber in accordance with Practice B117are considered pertinent for evaluating failure.
6.2Abrasion Resistance Test—To determine whether the coating is adherent,nonpowdery,and abrasion resistant,rub the chromated surface with a gritless,soft gum erar(art-gum) for2to3s by hand(about10strokes)using normal pressure (about70kPa(10psi))and a stroke approximately50mm l
ong.The chromate coating should not be removed or worn through to the underlying metal as a result of this treatment.
6.3Test for Colorless(Clear)Coatings—This test applies only to coatings that are free of condary supplementary coatings,such as oil,water or solvent-bad polymers,or wax.
6.3.1Determine the prence of a colorless(clear)coating by placing a drop of lead acetate testing solution on the surface. Allow the drop to remain on the surface for5s.Remove the testing solution by blotting gently,taking care not to disturb any deposit that may have formed.A dark deposit or black stain is indicative of the abnce of a coating.
6.3.2Prepare the test solution by dissolving50g of lead acetate trihydrate(Pb(C2H3O2)2·3H2O)in1L of distilled or deionized water.The pH of the solution should be between5.5 and 6.8.Any white precipitate formed during the initial preparation of the solution may be dissolved by small additions of acetic acid;provided that the pH is not reduced to a value below5.5.Upon formation of a white precipitate thereafter,the solution should be discarded.
6.3.3For comparative purpos,treat an untreated surface similarly.On an untreated surface,a black spot forms almost immediately.
APPENDIXES (Nonmandatory Information) X1.NATURE OF COATINGS
X1.1The primary purpo of chromatefinishes is to retard the formation of white corrosion products upon exposure to stagnant water,moist atmosphere,or stagnant environments containing organic vapors,such as may emanate from certain plastics,paints,and other organic materials.Chromatefinishes will not prevent the growth of metallicfilaments,commonly known as“whiskers.”
X1.2Coatings covered by this practice generally contain oxides of the basis metal and tri-and hexavalent chromium in varying proportions,except that colorless coatings contain little or no hexavalent chromium.They may be produced by either chemical or electrochemical process from solutions containing hexavalent chromium compounds with one or more of certain anions which act as activators,film formers or both. There is evidence that over an extended period,chromate coatings undergo some chemical changes even under ordinary conditions.The changes increa with increa in tempera-ture.At temperatures above approximately65°C,the changes take place fairly rapidly,converting the soluble hexavalent chromium ion into an insoluble compound and thereby reducing its protective value under salt spray and humid conditions.Colorless or light iridescent coatings appear to be less nsitive to elevated temperatures than are heavy chromate coatings.
X1.3The quality of the chromatefilm depends to a large extent on the chemical purity and the physical condition of the basis surface to which it is applied.In order to produce an acceptable coating,it is esntial that the surface be properly cleaned and free of heavy metallic impurities such as lead, copper,and contamination(specific for zinc),such as bright-ener occlusions,and oxides,which interfere with the chromat-ing reaction.
可爱大头娃X1.4The thickness of the coating to be chromated should be not less than5.0µm and the thickness requirement on the coating and chromatedfinish should apply after the chromate treatment.The color and luster produced by a given treatment will depend to some extent on the surface condition of the metal to which it is applied and may vary from part to part,or even on one single part.
千层蛋糕皮的做法X2.PROTECTION BY CHROMATE COATINGS
X2.1Table X2.1illustrates the minimum degree of protec-tion that can be expected from the various types of chromate coatings on electrodeposited zinc when subjected to a5%salt spray test.
X2.2The values are shown for guidance purpos only and are not to be construed as endpoint requirements.All types of zinc and cadmium coatings can be chromated,and there may or may not be differences in the protection afforded by the chromate depending on the type of coating and the m
ethod of processing,so the actual protection required should be estab-lished to the satisfaction of the manufacturer and the
purchar.
