ISO 19252:2008 specifies a method for determining the scratch properties of plastics under defined conditions. The method involves making a scratch by moving a hard instrument (scratch tip) of specified geometry under specified conditions of load and speed across the surface of a test specimen and then assessing the result.

The method is used to investigate the behaviour of specified types of specimen under the scratch conditions defined and for classifying the type of scratch of specimens within the limitations inherent in the test conditions. It can also be used to determine comparative data for different types of material by means of a so‑called scratch map in which the types of scratch behaviour for each set of test conditions of test load and test speed are determined using the basic method of constant-load testing, and also by means of the so‑called critical normal load determined using an alternative method of linearly increasing load testing.

The method is suitable for use with uncoated and unlacquered thermoplastic moulding materials and thermosetting moulding materials.

The method specifies the preferred dimensions for the test specimen and the preferred scratch-tip geometry.

This document specifies a test method for comparing the compression shear strength of adhesive bonds and solid wood at 180 °C and a second elevated temperature. The maximum load of the test pieces after exposure to 180 °C and a specific elevated temperature for a specified duration of time is evaluated. It is applicable to adhesives used in load bearing timber structures and to other wood adhesives. This method is intended primarily to obtain data for the performance of wood adhesives at high temperatures. The result of this method (temperature class) can be used to classify the adhesive with respect to its performance in fire.

This International Standard describes two methods for the determination of free formaldehyde (HCHO) in polymerdispersions. The procedure has been evaluated using acrylic, acrylonitrile butadiene, carboxylated styrenebutadieneand vinyl acetate polymer dispersions. Both test methods may also be applicable to polymer dispersionsof other compositions.

Method A is the preferred method for polymer dispersions with a free-formaldehyde content higher than .

Method B is recommended if lower formaldehyde contents have to be determined or arbitration analyses have to becarried out.

Both methods minimize changes in free-formaldehyde concentration that can result from changes in the physical or chemical properties of polymer dispersions.

There are no known limitations to these methods when used in the manner described.
