Paints and varnishes - Laboratory method for testing the efficacy of film preservatives in a coating against fungi
This document specifies a laboratory test method for determining the biocidal/biostatic efficacy of single active substances or combinations thereof used in film preservatives in a coating against fungal growth. This document does not apply to coatings not susceptible to fungal growth. The test method comprises only active substances for film preservation, not the protection of the substrate itself, e.g. wood, which is dealt with in another standard. The test method is applicable for active substances used for wood and masonry coatings. It is not applicable to marine coatings.
Safety, health and environmental aspects are not in the scope of this document.
Determination of the performance of film preservatives in coatings by applying ageing procedures is not within the scope of this document.
Beschichtungsstoffe - Laborverfahren für die Prüfung der Wirksamkeit von Filmkonservierungsmitteln in einer Beschichtung gegen Pilze
Dieses Dokument legt ein Laborverfahren zum Bestimmen der bioziden/biostatischen Wirksamkeit von Wirkstoffen oder einer Kombination aus mehreren Wirkstoffen zur Anwendung in Filmkonservierungsmitteln einer Beschichtung gegen Pilzbewuchs fest. Dieses Dokument gilt nicht für Beschichtungen, die unempfindlich gegen Pilzbewuchs sind. Das Prüfverfahren umfasst nur die Wirkstoffe zur Filmkonservierung. Es zeigt nicht an, wie wirksam der Beschichtungsfilm selbst oder ein Werkstoff darunter geschützt wird. Das Prüfverfahren ist anwendbar für Wirkstoffe, die für den Schutz von Beschichtungen von Holz und mineralischen Substraten verwendet werden. Die Norm gilt nicht für Beschichtungen im maritimen Bereich.
Sicherheits-, Gesundheits- und Umweltaspekte liegen nicht im Anwendungsbereich dieses Dokuments.
Die Bestimmung der Wirksamkeit von Filmkonservierungsmitteln in Beschichtungen nach Anwendung von Alterungsverfahren liegt nicht im Anwendungsbereich dieses Dokuments.
Peintures et vernis - Méthode d'essai en laboratoire permettant de déterminer l'efficacité des préservateurs du feuil d'un revêtement contre les champignons
Le présent document spécifie une méthode d’essai en laboratoire permettant de déterminer l’efficacité biocide ou biostatique de substances actives individuelles, ou de combinaisons de ces substances, utilisées dans les préservateurs du feuil de revêtements contre le développement fongique. Le présent document ne s’applique pas aux revêtements qui ne sont pas sensibles au développement fongique. Cette méthode d’essai concerne uniquement les substances actives utilisées pour la protection du feuil. Elle n’indique pas l’efficacité de protection du feuil de revêtement pour lui-même ou pour un matériau sous-jacent. Cette méthode d’essai est applicable aux substances actives utilisées pour la protection des peintures pour bois et pour maçonnerie. Elle ne s’applique pas aux peintures marines.
Barve in laki - Laboratorijske metode za preskušanje učinkovitosti konzervansov filma v premazih proti glivam
Ta dokument določa laboratorijsko preskusno metodo za določanje biocidne/biostatične učinkovitosti posamezne aktivne snovi ali kombinacij aktivnih snovi, ki se uporabljajo v konzervansih filma v premazih proti glivam. Dokument se ne uporablja za premaze, ki niso občutljivi na glive. Preskusna metoda vključuje samo aktivne snovi za ohranjanje filma in ne za zaščito same podlage, npr. lesa, ki jo obravnava drug standard. Preskusna metoda se uporablja za aktivne snovi, ki se uporabljajo za lesne in zidne premaze. Ne uporablja se za ladijske premaze.
Na področje uporabe tega dokumenta niso vključeni vidiki varnosti, zdravja in varstva okolja.
Določanje učinkovitosti konzervansov filma v premazih z izvajanjem postopkov staranja ne spada na področje uporabe tega dokumenta.
