Paints and varnishes - Determination of water content - Gas-chromatographic method (ISO 23168:2019)

This document specifies a method for the determination of the water content of water-borne coating materials and their raw materials by using a gas chromatograph. The preferred working range of this test method is from a water mass fraction of 15 % to a water mass fraction of 90 % but the method can be applied outside of this range.

Beschichtungsstoffe - Bestimmung des Wassergehaltes - Gaschromatographisches Verfahren (ISO 23168:2019)

Dieses Dokument legt ein Verfahren zum Bestimmen des Wassergehaltes von wasserhaltigen Beschichtungs¬stoffen und deren Rohstoffen mittels eines Gaschromatographen fest. Der bevorzugte Arbeitsbereich dieses Prüfverfahrens liegt bei einem Wassergehalt von 15 % bis 90 % (Massenanteil), das Verfahren kann jedoch auch außerhalb dieses Bereiches angewendet werden.

Peintures et vernis - Détermination de la teneur en eau - Méthode par chromatographie en phase gazeuse (ISO 23168:2019)

Le présent document spécifie une méthode pour déterminer la teneur en eau des produits de peinture aqueux et de leurs matières premières au moyen d'un chromatographe en phase gazeuse. La plage de mesure recommandée pour la présente méthode s'étend d'une fraction massique en eau de 15 % à une fraction massique en eau de 90 %, mais la méthode peut être appliquée en dehors de cette plage.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each 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 collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
