Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide fed-
eration of national Standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of
preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO tech-
nical committees. Esch member body interested in a subject for which a
technical committee has been established has the right to be represented
on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-
governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collabo-
rates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on
all matters of electrotechnical Standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting
a vote.
International Standard ISO 3549 was prepared by Technical Committee
ISO/TC 35, Paints and varnishes, Subcommittee SC 2, Pigments and
extenders.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 3549:1976),
which has been technically revised.
