ASTM International Subcommittee D01.23 on Physical Properties of Applied Paint Films has approved three new standards that each deal with different types of measurements for paint coatings. Subcommittee D01.23 is under the jurisdiction of Committee D01 on Paint and Related Coatings, Materials, and Applications. Titles and descriptions of each new standard follow. , D 6991, Test Method for Internal Stresses in Organic Coatings by Cantilever (Beam) Method, Test Method D 6991 covers the procedure for measuring internal stresses in organic coatings by using the cantilever (beam) method. The test method can be used to determine the internal stresses in coatings after they have cured. Most organic coatings shrink when they cure. This induces an internal stress in the coatings. If the substrate is flexible, such as a vinyl composition tile, and has…, D 7091, Practice for Nondestructive Measurement of Dry Film Thickness of Nonmagnetic Coatings Applied to Ferrous Metals and Nonmagnetic, Nonconductive Coatings Applied to Nonferrous Metals, The development of D 7091 is the result of subcommittee discussions on the need to revise or replace D 1186, Test Method for Nondestructive Measurement of Dry Film Thickness of Nonmagnetic Coatings Applied to a Ferrous Base, and D 1400, Test Method for Nondestructive Measurement of Dry Film Thickness of Nonconductive Coatings Applied to a Nonferrous Metal Base. Rather than revising or…, D 7187, Test Method Measuring Mechanical Aspects of Scratch/Mar Behavior of Paint Coatings by Nanoscratching, Test Method D 7187 determines the resistance to mar and scratch of paint coatings on smooth, flat surfaces. The standard, which had its origin in a paper presented by Li Lin, DuPont, at the 2002 Committee D01 Centennial symposium on new directions in coatings performance technology, is a possible solution to recent searches within the automotive industry for a better way to measure the scratch…

ASTM International Committee F24 on Amusement Rides and Devices currently has the following new proposed standards under development:, WK526 Netting, Subcommittee F24.24 on Design and Manufacture is currently developing WK526, Practice for Design, Manufacture, Installation and Testing of Climbing Nets and Netting/Mesh Used in Childrens Play Areas, Safety and Attractions. The purpose of the proposed standard is to reduce life-threatening and debilitating injuries associated with netted areas and attractions. "The amusement industry needed…, WK529 Water Slide Structures, Safety is at the heart of proposed new standard WK529, Guide for Classification, Design, Manufacture, Construction, and Operation of Water Slide Structures. The proposed standard, which is under the jurisdiction of Subcommittee F24.70 on Water Related Amusement Rides and Devices, will apply to water slides installed in public places such as water parks, hotels, resorts, and amusement parks.…, WK1074 Interactive Aquatic Play Equipment, In addition to WK529, Subcommittee F24.70 is also working on proposed new standard WK1074, Practice for Manufacture, Construction, Operations, Maintenance, and Water Quality of Interactive Aquatic Play Equipment. The proposed standard applies to interactive aquatic play equipment located in and around re-circulated and potable water, including swimming pools, activity pools, wave pools, lazy…
