ASTM D 7087 - 05a Standard Test Method for An Imaging Technique to Measure Rust Creepage at Scribe on Coated Test Panels Subjected to Corrosive Environments

American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). Current edition approved July 1, 2005. Published July 2005. Originally approved in 2005. Last previous edition approved in 2005 as D 7087 – 05. 4 p. This test method covers the measurement of rust creepage area from a scribe line on painted/coated flat test panels after exposure to corrosive environments. This test method has the advantage of simplicity and ease of use. Expensive equipment is not required, and the results are more accurate than visual evaluation but not as precise as advanced digital imaging.
