Overview

EN ISO 17872:2019 - Paints and varnishes: Guidelines for the introduction of scribe marks through coatings on metallic panels for corrosion testing - provides practical guidance on how to produce reproducible scribe marks through coating systems on metallic test panels. Prepared by ISO/TC 35 and adopted by CEN, this document applies to coatings with a dry film thickness < 500 μm and covers metallic substrates including steel, galvanized steel, aluminium alloys and magnesium alloys. It is a guideline based on a collaborative trial (no subsequent corrosion testing was used to validate the scribes).

Key topics and technical requirements

• Scope and applicability: Scribing methods for coated metal test-pieces (excludes electroplated metal and clad aluminium panels).
• Scribe geometry: Acceptable cross-sections include V- and U-shaped cuts (with dimensional relationships such as a > b > c for V-shape and b > 0.2 mm for both shapes), plus L-shaped, diagonal and rectangular variations illustrated in the standard.
• Typical dimensions: Recommended scribe lengths are generally in the 50–70 mm range to exceed expected corrosion creep and to provide a representative view of coating performance.
• Tooling: Guidance on scribing tools (knife/blade types, pencil-type tools, milling cutters, ceramic knives, gravers) and their impact on cross-sectional shape, depth and exposed metal area.
• Orientation and reproducibility: The standard discusses how scribe orientation (horizontal, diagonal, vertical) and surface rolling/milling direction affect salt deposition and corrosion patterns-stress is placed on consistent, accurate scribing to ensure reproducible test outcomes.
• Special cases: For hot-dip galvanized steel, the scribe must penetrate the coating and the metal layer into the steel substrate per ISO 12944 requirements.
• Test procedure elements: Apparatus, test panels, scribing procedure, verification of the scribing tool and required reporting are included; Annexes give tool examples and show how different scribing tools can produce differing corrosion test results.

Applications and users

Who uses EN ISO 17872:2019:

• Corrosion and coating test laboratories conducting salt-spray and other exposure tests
• Quality control teams in paint, coating and metal finishing industries
• Coating formulators and materials engineers developing and validating protective systems
• Certification bodies and standards committees aligning test methods Practical uses include accelerated corrosion tests, comparative product evaluation, production QC and failure-analysis preparation.

Related standards

• ISO 4618 (Terms and definitions)
• ISO 12944-6 and ISO 12944-9 (referenced for hot-dip galvanized scribe requirements)

ISO 17872:2019(E)
Introduction
Many International Standards deal with corrosion testing, where scribe marks are introduced through
a coating to a metallic substrate. However, the method of scribe-mark introduction (scribing pattern,
tools, etc.) is not standardized across these standards.
The main purposes of an intentionally inflicted damage in a coating prior to corrosion testing are as
follows:
a) to simulate and to investigate how adhesion of a coating originating from an artificial damage after
exposure is ensured;
b) to obtain an accelerated response during a corrosion test, e.g. at quality control during production;
c) to investigate the general durability of a coating by observation of the rate of corrosion at a damage
spread after exposure.
Preliminary investigations have shown that several variants, both in terms of shape and dimensions, of
scribing tools are used. These variations occur both across countries and within countries. The effect of
using different tools is the production of scribe marks with different cross-sectional shape, depth and
exposed metal area. These differences will greatly affect test results obtained during corrosion tests, as
the intention of introducing scribe marks into a coating system is such that oxygen and the electrolyte
present during exposure testing can obtain access to a well-defined and active metal surface.
The actual method used to introduce a scribe mark depends on the coating type and thickness. However,
in all cases it is preferable if the cross-section is as smooth as possible, the metallic substrate is exposed
evenly and no coating remains on the exposed substrate.
INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 17872:2019(E)
Paints and varnishes — Guidelines for the introduction
of scribe marks through coatings on metallic panels for
corrosion testing
1 Scope
This document describes methods of scribing coated steel or test-pieces for corrosion tests, where the
coating system is applied at dry film thicknesses of less than 500 μm. It is intended as a guideline only,
being based on the results of a collaborative trial with no subsequent corrosion testing having been
carried out to determine the suitability of the introduced scribe marks for such tests.
This document covers the scribing of metallic panels or test pieces (chemically treated or not) made from:
— steel;
— galvanized steel;
— aluminium alloys;
— magnesium alloys.
It does not cover the scribing of electroplated metal or clad aluminium panels.

4 Scribe marks
Different scribe marks create different results depending on the used corrosion test.
The scribing method greatly affects how the corrosion process occurs and the reproducibility when
tests are repeated under the same conditions. Examples of possible different results in one corrosion
test when using different scribing tools are given in Annex B. In order to obtain results with high
accuracy and reproducibility, accurate and consistent scribing is required.
If not otherwise agreed or specified, a scribe mark is made as described in Figure 1a) to Figure 1e)
through the coating to the metal substrate according to the agreed conditions. For hot-dip galvanized
steel the scribe shall be cut completely through the paint coating and the metal layer and into the steel
substrate, as specified in ISO 12944-6 and ISO 12944-9.
