Specifies a method of test for the accelerated determination of the resistance of porcelain enamel coatings on aluminium and aluminium alloys to spalling as a result of exposure to moisture or weather. This Standard is identical with and has been reproduced from ISO 13805:1999.
Scope
This International Standard specifies a test method for the accelerated determination of the resistance of porcelain enamel coatings on aluminium and aluminium alloys to spalling as a result of exposure to moisture or weathering. Because spalling is caused by the lack of adhesion between the coating and the base metal, the spall test is a test of adhesion. The greater the extent of spalling in this test, the greater the likelihood that the article will spall in service.
