Panels of high strength aluminum alloy (7075-T6) were used in this study. The panels were approximately 10 x 3 x 0.032 inch (25 x 7.5 x 0.08 cm) in size. The test environments for coating evaluation were (1) a 5% NaCl spray (fog) chamber according to ASTM Standard Method of Salt Spray (Fog) Testing (B117-73), and (2) a modified 5% NaCl/S02 spray (fog) chamber with SO gas introduced periodically - ASTM Standard Practice for Modified Salt Spray (Fog) Testing (G85-84(A4)). In the latter case, a constant spray of 5% NaCl was maintained in the chamber and SO2 was introduced for one hour four tines a day (every 6 hours)( ). Coated test panels were examined for corrosion after one- and two- eek exposure periods.

There are two ASTM standard practices on segregation test methods (51,52). These testers are designed to isolate specific mechanisms, and test a materiafs tendency to segregate by that method. A brief description of these test methods follows. 

As a number of other organisms may be of specific interest for certain polymeric materials, other pure cultures of organisms may be used in accordance with the ASTM standard practice.

In this test, small spots of the adhesive are placed onto a substrate. Surface preparation, application procedures, and curing conditions are to be as similar as possible to those used in the quantitative test and/or the actual adhesively bonded Joint. The adhesive spots are allowed to cure according to the manufacturers specifications. To test adhesion, this ASTM standard practice recommends the use of a thin stainless steel spatula or similar probe as a prying lever to assess the relative difficulty of removing the adhesive from the substrate. If the results are acceptable, standard quantitative adhesive test procedures can be used to obtain quantitative measurement of the adhesive s performance. 

The conclusion is that, because sample damage cannot be fully ruled out. quotation of a damage index as defined above may improve significantly the traceable quality of analytical data. The requirements of the ASTM standard practice E1015-90 [11] could be met in this way. 

PFE/PLE extraction is internationally accepted by the regulatory bodies, among others by the US EPA SW-846 Method 3545A, which can be used in place of Methods 3540, 3541, 3550 and 8151, by the US Contract Laboratory Program (CLP) statement of work (SOW) OLM04.2, the Chinese method GB/T 19649-2005 and German Method LOO.00-34 both for pesticides, also the ASTM Standard Practice D-7210 for additives in polymers andD-7567 for gel content of polyolefins.
