Introduction
Wood as a natural exterior construction material may be protected from rain, sunlight and microbial
attack by a coating film, thus ensuring its appearance and mechanical integrity over many years.
However, since most coatings are permeable to some extent to moisture from rain and air humidity,
swelling of the wood and coating occurs. Consequent shrinking of the wood and coating occurs upon
drying. The magnitude of swelling and shrinking depends on the amount of moisture uptake and varies
depending on the wood species and on the direction of wood movement (longitudinal < radial <
tangential). These cyclic expansions and contractions lead to different stresses in the surface coating over
time. The coating should ideally stay intact over time and continue to protect the wood substrate. A
coating material that is too rigid and brittle will crack and fail allowing increased moisture and water
uptake, microbial attack, eventual complete coating failure and possible wood degradation. The tensile
properties of the coatings are thus very important for the service lifetime of the coating and wood
substrate.
1 Scope
This document specifies a method for determining the tensile properties of free coating films, specifically
for exterior wood applications. Typical tensile properties of interest are the modulus of elasticity, the
tensile strength and the elongation at break during stretching of a free coating film at constant test speed.
The test methods specified in this document are applicable to coatings from which free films can be made.

4 Principle
Tensile test specimens are prepared from free coating films and subjected to a tensile test under defined
conditions until they fail. During this procedure, the load sustained by the specimen and the elongation
behaviour are recorded.
This document is similar to EN ISO 527-3 and ISO 37 for the testing of plastic and rubber materials but
focusses on the specimen preparation and specific testing of free dry coating films made from liquid
paints and varnishes intended for application on exterior wooden substrates.
5 Apparatus and materials
5.1 Film application device
Coating films can be prepared by casting the liquid coating material in moulds or by applying it to a
suitable non-adhering substrate by a manual procedure or an automatic film applicator; see 6.2.
NOTE Automatic application devices are preferred as they move at constant speed and deliver a more uniform
final coating film.
5.2 Test apparatus
The tensile test machine shall comply with the requirements of EN ISO 527-1:2019, 5.1, where applicable.
It should be equipped with selectable speed control (typical range: 10 mm/min to 200 mm/min), load
and strain indicator and temperature control unit. The strain indicator can either use crosshead travel
measurement or extensometer measurement. If an extensometer is used, an optical measurement device
is preferred as it does not touch and influence the specimen.
5.3 Coating thickness gauge
For film thickness measurement, all devices using mechanical scanning according to EN ISO 2808 or
equivalent methods are applicable.
6 Test specimens
6.1 Sampling of coating products
Take a representative specimen of the liquid coating material to be tested as specified in EN ISO 15528.
Deaerating of the coating material should be considered (e.g. in a centrifuge or in a high-speed vacuum
mixer).
6.2 Preparation of test specimens
Prepare the test specimens by casting the liquid coating material into shallow (e.g. silicone rubber-based)
moulds (in case of low viscosity coating materials) or by drawing the (more viscous) coating material as
a wet film on a flat support (e.g. on a PTFE coated metal plate, POM or inert foil, e.g. based on untreated
PP or PE) with a broad film applicator. The substrate shall be levelled horizontally before applying the
coating material.
The substrate shall allow the dry film to be removed easily without the need for additional wetting or
pre-stressing it. For cast films, apply the proper amount of (wet) coating material to produce the
requested dry film thickness.
In the case of inert foils as substrate it is recommended to attach them to the levelled flat support
(typically a glass plate) by wetting the backside with oil or water, avoiding entrapped air bubbles. The
wet coating film should preferably be applied on the foil with an automatic film applicator at an
appropriate speed.
The coating films to gain the final test specimens shall be prepared at controlled conditions in a standard
atmosphere [(23 ± 2) °C, (50 ± 10) % relative humidity or (20 ± 2) °C, (65 ± 10) % relative humidity]. The
