19、ntact with the skin depends very much on nature and shape of the objects and the activities of the person concerned. This procedure attempts to simulate the wear and corrosion likely to be suffered by a coated article during two years of normal use. By its nature this is a pragmatic solution to the
20、problems posed by the evaluation of coated items which are in contact with the skin, and which may be subject to several kinds of wear. 1 Scope and field of application This European Standard specifies a method for accelerated wear and corrosion, to be used for the detection of nickel release from c
21、oated items that come into direct and prolonged contact with the skin. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are list
22、ed below. For dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of these publications apply to this standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies. EN 1811, Reference test method for rele
23、ase of nickel from products intended to come into direct and prolonged contact with the skin. 3 Principle The items to be tested are exposed to a corrosive atmosphere before being placed into a container together with abrasive chips, water, and a wetting agent. The container is rotated so as to subj
24、ect the test pieces to friction from the mass of abrasive chips. This action smoothes the surfaces and abrades the coatings of the test items. The items are then tested for nickel release in accordance with EN 1811. 4 Reagents and materials Except where indicated, all reagents shall be of recognized
25、 pro analysis, p.a., grade or better and shall be free of nickel. 4.1 Corrosion 4.1.1 Container made of an inert material (glass or plastic), with a lid and a device made of inert material for suspending the test pieces. 4.1.2 Corrosive medium, dissolve 50 g DL-Lactic acid, 88 % purity, and 100 g so
26、dium chloride in 1 000 ml deionized water. 4.1.3 Degreasing solution, dissolve 5 g of an anionic surface-active agent such as sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate or sodium alkylaryl sulfonate in 1 000 ml water. An appropriately-diluted, neutral, commercially-available detergent may be used. 4.1.4 Labora
27、tory oven, capable of maintaining a temperature of (502) 8C. 4.2 Wear 4.2.1 Plastic container, having a minimum capacity of 2 l, such as a wide-mouth cylindrical plastic bottle, with a leak-proof screw closure. NOTEContainers with a diameter of between 115 mm and 150 mm have been found generally sui
28、table. 4.2.2 Wear test apparatus, a device capable of imparting a constant rotating movement around the long axis of the container (4.2.1), the later being positioned horizontally (see Figure 1). The device shall be capable of adjustment such that the velocity of the container is (121) m/min at its
29、circumference. Figure 1 Rotation of the container 4.2.3 Abrasive chips, chips of cylindrical shape, cut at 458108 at each extremity (see Figure 2), made of sintered corundum free of nickel, and having the characteristics given in Table 1. Before abrasive chips are used for the first time, subject th
30、em to preliminary wear by rotating them in the absence of any test pieces for 50 h under the conditions stipulated in 5.3. Rinse the chips thoroughly with a strong flow of tap water to remove all particles. Then, rinse the chips with deionized water. Table 1 Characteristics of abrasive chips Dimensi

32、2.4 Deionized water. 4.2.5 Sodium lauryl sulfate, 20 % aqueous solution. 4.2.6 Wear medium, the medium is composed of abrasive chips (4.2.3) and a lubricant consisting of a 0,1 % (V/V) aqueous solution of 20 % sodium lauryl sulfate solution (4.2.5). Abrasive and lubricant are mixed before use as ind
33、icated in 5.3. 4.2.7 Nitric acid, r = 1,40 g/ml, 65% (m/m). 4.2.8 Dilute nitric acid, approximately 5 % (m/m). Transfer 30 ml of nitric acid (4.2.7) into a 500 ml beaker containing 350 ml of deionized water. Stir and cool to room temperature. Transfer the solution to a 500 ml volumetric flask and ma
34、ke up to volume with deionized water. 5 Procedure 5.1 Sample preparation Gently swirl the sample for 2 min in degreasing solution (4.1.3) at room temperature. Rinse thoroughly with deionized water and dry. After degreasing, samples should be handled with plastic forceps or clean protective gloves. N
35、OTEThis cleaning stage is intended to remove extraneous grease and skin secretions due to handling, but not any protective coatings. 5.2 Corrosion procedure If applicable, the items to be tested shall first be opened to reveal critical surfaces. The items are suspended in a closed container (4.1.1)
36、a few centimetres above the corrosive medium (4.1.2) for 2 h at 50 8C. Open the container carefully under a fume hood. Rinse the items with deionized water and, if the wear procedure (5.3) is not to be carried out immediately, allow them to dry on an absorbing tissue. NOTEParts of items which do not
37、 come into prolonged contact with the skin may be removed or protected before being subjected to corrosion and wear. 5.3 Wear procedure Fill the plastic container (4.2.1) to 50 % of its volume with an appropriate amount of abrasive chips which have been subjected to preliminary wear (4.2.3). Prepare
38、 the wear medium (4.2.6) by adding a volume of lubricant equal to 70 % of apparent volume of the chips. Add the test items. Items to be tested together shall be of a similar type, taking into account their shape, size and finish. The total volume of items and wear medium in the container shall not e
39、xceed 75 % of the containers volume. Close the lid of the container and place it horizontally on the wear test apparatus (4.2.2). Run the apparatus at the specified speed for a total of 4 h. NOTEParts of items which do not come into prolonged contact with the skin may be removed or protected before
40、being subjected to wear. 5.4 Determination of nickel release Separate the items from wear medium, rinse the items thoroughly with deionized water and allow to dry. Test the items for nickel release in accordance with EN 1811. NOTEIndicative information on the extent of nickel release can be obtained
41、 by performing one of the tests specified in prEN 12471. 5.5 Reuse of chips If the chips have not been used for more than 500 h and are to be reused, wash them thoroughly in tap water followed by soaking for at least 16 h in dilute nitric acid (4.2.8). Rinse thoroughly in tap water and finally in de
42、ionized water. 6 Test report In addition to the information required by EN 1811, the test report shall contain the following particulars: a) a reference to this standard, i.e. EN 12472; b) details of any deviations from this standard method, if relevant; c) any unusual feature(s) observed during the
43、 test. Annex A (informative) Bibliography prEN 12471, Screening tests for nickel release from alloys and coatings in items that come into direct and prolonged contact with the skin.
