TQC Machu Test Bath: Product Description

The document describes the TQC Machu test, an accelerated corrosion test for coated metal panels and construction parts. The test involves scratching test panels and submerging them in a heated saltwater and acid or peroxide solution for 24 hours. The panels are then examined for coating degradation along the scratches. The test bath equipment maintains the heated solution temperature and includes a stainless steel bath, lid, and plastic container for holding the test panels. Proper testing standards and safety precautions are also outlined.

TQC MACHU TEST BATH

VF8700

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

TQC Machu test, accelerated corrosion test on test panels and construction parts
according to Qualicoat specifications.

The test is made in a warm environment. To create this the test panels are placed
in the container, which is placed in the Machu Test Bath.

The test panels need to be scratched crosswise with a 1mm cutting tool before
placing them in the warm moisture test chamber. The fluid content, temperature and remain time are
specified.

METHOD OF USE

The (powder)coated norm sized test panels or partial construction test pieces are scratched with 1mm
X-cross (Andreas) cut up till the blank base substrate. They are totally submerged in the solution A or B of 37°C
in the plastic container. Close the lid on the plastic container to prevent contamination with the liquid in the
water bath. The water bath is filled with water up till the level in the plastic container. The plastic container is
placed in the water bath and warmed Au Bain Marie like. The pieces under test are left for 24 hours in the
solution, then washed with fresh water and dried.
For examination carefully peel away the loose parts of coating layer along the edges of the X cross with a
Stanley knife. The dimensions of the largest undermined areas, measured from cutting edge to undermining is
measured and recorded.

Specs Qualicoat: < 0,5mm both sides of cutting.


Specs. GSB: dmax <= 1mm

Note!
• For each new test a fresh amount of test solution has to be made.

• The proposed liquids are less suited for stainless steel (304, 316 and duplex SST) products due to the
high pitting potential. This is initiated by the high salt amount combined with the hydrogen peroxide.
Therefore NEVER put the test solution, or any other solution in the bath itself. Always use a plastic
container instead.
FLUID COMPOSITION

Composition A for aluminum and steel Composition B for coated zinced steel or sendzimir
• NaCl : 50 +- 1g/l • NaCl : 50 +- 1g/l
• CH3COOH (glacial) : 10 +- 1 ml/l • H2O2 (30%) : 10 +- 1 ml/l
• H2O2 (30%) : 5 +- 1 ml/l • The pH of the liquid is 6.0.
• Temperature : 37° +- 1° C
• Test time : 48 +- 0,5 hour
• The pH of the liquid is 3.0 – 3.3.

After 24 hour a 5 ml/l hydrogen peroxide H2O2 (30%) solution is added and the pH value is adjusted with glacial
or caustic soda.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• Always make sure the instrument is connected to an earthed electric socket.


• Always make sure the instrument’s power is turned off while adjusting any electric component
• NEVER put the test solution/any other solution in the bath itself. Always use a plastic container instead.
