【国外标准】 Standard Test Methods for Electrical Resistivity of Liquid Paint and Related Materials

4.1 These tests are suitable for testing paints adjusted for compatibility with various electrostatic spray coating applications, and by their use, spray performance can be optimized.1.1 These test methods cover the determination of specific resistance (resistivity) of liquid paints, solvents, and other fluids in the range of 0.6 to 2640 MΩ-cm.1.2 Test Method A describes a procedure for making resistance tests with a commonly used paint application test assembly (Fig. 1 and Fig. 2).FIG. 1 Analog Paint Application Test AssemblyFIG. 2 Diagram of Digital Application Test Assembly1.3 Test Method B describes a procedure for making resistance tests with a conductivity meter (Fig. 3).FIG. 3 Conductivity Meter1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.6 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
