ASTM D1654-08

This document is not anASTM standard and is intended only to provide the user of anASTM standard an indication of what changes have been made to the previous version. Because
it may not be technically possible to adequately depict all changes accurately, ASTM recommends that users consult prior editions as appropriate. In all cases only the current version
of the standard as published by ASTM is to be considered the official document.
Designation:D1654–05 Designation: D 1654 – 08
Standard Test Method for
Evaluation of Painted or Coated Specimens Subjected to
1
Corrosive Environments
This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 1654; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of
original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A
superscript epsilon (´) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.
This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.
1. Scope
1.1 This test method covers the treatment of previously painted or coated specimens for accelerated and atmospheric exposure
tests and their subsequent evaluation in respect to corrosion, blistering associated with corrosion, loss of adhesion at a scribe mark,
or other film failure.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility
of whoever uses this standard to consult and establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of
regulatory limitations prior to use.

3. Significance and Use
3.1This method provides a means of evaluating and comparing basic corrosion performance of the substrate, pretreatment, or
coating system, or combination thereof, after exposure to corrosive environments. Terminology
3.1 paint removal material, n—a device or substance that is used to remove loose coating around a scribe.
3.2 rust creepage or undercutting, n—corrosion of a substrate that occurs around a damaged area of a coated material.
3.3 scribe, n—a linear, intentionally prepared damaged area on a coated material that extends down to the substrate
