The method describes the quantitative determination of the concentration of in-can free formaldehyde in water-dilutable coating materials. Note: The standard can also be applied for polymer dispersions. The determination method for in-can free formaldehyde can be only of limited suitability for pigmented systems, as the inherent coloration of the material may have an influence on the detection method.

The method describes the quantitative determination of the in-can total formaldehyde content in water-dilutable coating materials. Main sources of formaldehyde are preservatives. NOTE: The standard is also applicable for polymer dispersions.

This document specifies the apparatus and analytical method for determining the content of in-can isothiazolinone preservatives in water-dilutable coating materials or related products. Note The document is also applicable for polymer dispersions.

This document specifies sample preparation methods to determine the size distribution of separate particles of a single pigment or extender, which is dispersed in a liquid by application of a standardized dispersion procedure, using an ultrasonic device, shaker device or wet jet mill. The sample preparation methods described are optimized for measurements carried out with a particle sizing technique based on sedimentation. This technique relies on particle migration due to gravitation or centrifugal forces and requires a density contrast between the particles and the liquid phase.
