ASTM D6958-03
Historical Standard: ASTM D6958-03 Standard Test Methods for Evaluating Side-Bonding Potential of Wood Coatings
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM D6958
1. Scope
1.1 These test methods describe an evaluation procedure for the determination of undesirable side-bonding of coatings for wood flooring. They provide two mechanical properties tests for the quantitative determination of the cohesive strength of wood coatings (tensile and lap shear); they also provide a wood floor simulation test for the qualitative determination of side-bonding potential of wood coatings.
1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
