Tôles prélaquées - Méthodes d'essai - Partie 8 : Résistance au brouillard salin
Le présent document spécifie les modes opératoires à appliquer pour déterminer la résistance au brouillard salin d’un revêtement organique appliqué sur un subjectile métallique (prélaquage en bandes continues).
Un brouillard salin neutre est généralement utilisé pour l’acier et un brouillard salin d’acide acétique pour l’aluminium.
Prevlečene kovine, ki se navijajo - Preskusne metode - 8. del: Odpornost proti slani megli
Ta del skupine standardov EN 13523 določa postopke za ugotavljanje odpornosti organske prevleke na kovinski podlagi (prevlečene kovine, ki se navijajo) proti slani megli.
Za jeklo se običajno uporablja nevtralna slana megla, za aluminij pa slana megla ocetne kisline.

4 Principle
A test specimen is exposed to a salt spray (fog) for a specified period of time and assessed for possible
corrosion expressed by a degree of delamination or corrosion and a degree of blistering.
5 Apparatus and materials
Ordinary laboratory apparatus and glassware, together with the following:
5.1 Salt spray cabinet, in accordance with EN ISO 9227.
5.2 Test solution, as specified in 5.2.1 or 5.2.2 respectively.
5.2.1 For neutral salt spray fog, the test solution shall be prepared by dissolving sodium chloride in
water of at least grade 3 purity, as defined in EN ISO 3696, to produce a concentration of (50 ± 5) g/l. The
sodium chloride shall be white, of minimum purity 99,6 % (by mass), and substantially free from copper
and nickel; it shall contain no more than 0,1 % (by mass) of sodium iodide. If the pH of the solution is
outside the range 6,0 to 7,0, the presence of undesirable impurities in the salt or the water or both shall
be investigated. The pH of the test solution shall be adjusted so that the pH of sprayed solution collected
within the salt spray cabinet (5.1) is between 6,5 and 7,2. Any necessary adjustment to the pH shall be
made by additions of solutions of either hydrochloric acid or sodium bicarbonate of analytical grade (see
also EN ISO 9227, NSS test).
