1. Scope

1.1 These test methods cover the determination of the indentation hardness of organic materials such as dried paint, varnish, and lacquer coatings, when applied to an acceptable

plane rigid surface, for example, metal or glass.

1.2 Two methods are covered as follows:

                                     Sections

Method A—Knoop Indentation Hardness 6 – 12

Method B—Pfund Indentation Hardness 13 – 19

1.3 Method A, which has the greater precision, provides hardness values in terms of Knoop Hardness Number (KHN). Method B provides hardness in terms of Pfund Hardness Number (PHN). Although the hardness value scales of these methods differ, the methods agree in the ranking of coating hardness.

1.4 Test MethodAof these test methods is similar in content (but not technically equivalent) to ISO 6441-1and ISO 6441-2.

1.5 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.

1.6 This standard does not purport to address 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.

3. Terminology

3.1 Definitions:

3.1.1 indentation hardness, n—the resistance to penetration by an indenter.

3.1.2 Knoop indenter, n—a pyramidal diamond of prescribed dimensions.

3.1.3 Pfund indenter, n—hemispherical quartz or sapphire indenter of prescribed dimensions.

3.1.4 Knoop hardness number, KHN, n—the indentation

hardness determined with a Knoop indenter, and calculated as

follows:

KHN = L/A p = L/l² C_p                  (1)

where:

L = load applied to the indenter, kg,

l = measured length of long diagonal of the indentation,mm,

Cp = indenter constant relating l² to A_p , and

Ap = projected area of indentation, mm² .

3.1.5 Pfund hardness number, PHN, n—the indentation hardness determined with a Pfund indenter, and calculated as follows:

PHN = L/A = 4L/πd² = 1.27 (L/d²)      (2)

where:

L = load/kg applied to the indenter, kg,

A = area of projected indentation, mm² , and

d = diameter of projected indentation, mm.
