What is ISO 28199-1 about?
ISO 28199 discusses paints and varnishes. ISO 28199-1 is the first part of ISO 28199 multi-series and discusses vocabulary and preparation of test panels.
ISO 28199-1 defines terms relating to the evaluation of coating materials in research, development, and production regarding their suitability and safety for industrial processes and error analysis.
ISO 28199-1 also specifies methods for the preparation of test panels and the subsequent measurement of film thickness, colour, surface texture and other measurable surface properties.
Who is ISO 28199-1 for?
ISO 28199-1 on paints and varnishes evaluation of properties of coating systems related to the spray application process is useful for:
- Paint manufacturers
- Automobile manufacturers
- Quality control personnel
Why should you use ISO 28199-1?
The coating materials used are adapted to the specific application equipment and settings of the user. A coating material is, therefore, to be understood as a semi-manufactured product that only achieves its final form in combination with the specific application conditions. The properties to be evaluated for coating materials and coatings depend on the film thickness, so a coating system of increasing or constant thickness is applied to one or more test panels under defined conditions depending on the surface properties to be tested.
ISO 28199-1 will help you to determine Colour stability or colour evaluation, process hiding power, redissolving, overspray absorption, wetting, surface texture and mottling. The surface texture can be measured both independently of the film thickness and a constant film thickness. Mottling is preferably measured at constant film thickness. Tendency to sagging, formation of bubbles, pinholing and hiding power.
ISO 28199-1 helps you evaluate the coating material that helps you achieve the desirable effect of the paint on the surface
What’s changed since the last update?
BS EN ISO 28199-1:2021 supersedes BS EN ISO 28199-1:2009, which is withdrawn. BS EN ISO 28199-1:2021 includes some technical changes with respect to BS EN ISO 28199-1:2009. These include:
- The measurement pattern for colour measurement has been adapted in line with the measurement pattern for texture measurement for version A of the samples
- The measurements of mottling and gloss have been added
- Examples of applications with high-speed rotation have been added
- The description of the film thickness wedge has been revised
- The terms "bubble formation limit" and "cratering" have been moved to ISO 28199
