4 Sampling
Samples may be taken from storage, from material provided on work site, or from the application
equipment on site.
Samples representative of each component of the material shall be taken from storage in accordance

5.4 Premix particles and/or glass beads
5.4.1 Granulometry
The granulometry shall be determined using digital image analysis or the method laid down in EN 1424
or EN 1423.
5.5 Tolerances
Tolerances are as shown in Table 1.
Manufacturers tolerances shouldn't be greater than in Table 1 declared.
If the manufacturer can't provide values or parameters requested by the authorities necessary for the
certification process the authorities authorized lab determines that values or parameters.
For the initial testing of a material, tolerances apply to the manufacturers declared mean values for the
properties tested and the initial test results shall be within the tolerances, related to the mean value, in
Table 1.
When the values fall inside the tolerances then the values initially declared by the manufacturer are
considered to be verified.
When values fall outside of the tolerances there are four possibilities:
— the manufacturer can decide that the test be terminated;
— by agreement between the participants the test can be repeated with the same samples;
— by agreement between the participants the test can be repeated with new samples;
— by agreement between the participants the manufacturer can submit revised declared values;

Annex A
(normative)
Paint – Test method for the determination of the solids/solvent content
A.1 Principle
The volatile constituents of the paint are evaporated at 105 °C. The residual solids are weighed and the
solids content calculated.
A.2 Apparatus
a) Porcelain basins with a minimum diameter of 40 mm.
b) Analytical balance, with an accuracy of 0,001 g, with zero point correction.
A lower accuracy balance may be used provided large sample size is used.
c) Warming cupboard, with forced fresh air ventilation and flame-proof interior capable of being
heated to 105 °C ± 2 °C.
d) Desiccator, with drying agent, e.g. silica gel.
A.3 Reagents

A.4 Procedure
A.4.1 Carry out two determinations.
A.4.2 Mark porcelain plates with numbers. Record the mass of the empty plates (L) to the nearest
0,01 g. Place approximately 2 g of the paint, and homogenized, in the plate with a spoon. Weigh to the
nearest 0,01 g (mass M ).

A.4.3 Place the plates containing the sample in a warming cupboard at a temperature of 105 °C ± 2 °C
and store there for at least 3 h or until constant mass is reached. Constant mass is reached when, the
mass loss is less than Δ = 0,2 % change in mass. Cool the plate to room temperature in the desiccator,
and weigh to the nearest 0,01 g.
A.5 Test result
The percentage solids content of the paint by mass, S, shall be calculated according to the following
formula:
100 ML−
( )

S= (A.1)

If the results of the individual determinations differ by more than 0,5 % by mass the procedure shall be
repeated. The mean of the two individual results shall be calculated and the solids content given
rounded to the nearest 0,1 % by mass.

B.1 Principle
The determination of the part of organic constituents is carried out by combustion. The binder type of
paints and thermoplastics and cold plastics is identified by IR spectra using a potassium bromide (KBr)
pellet or window.
Volatile components of paints and cold plastics (solvents and monomers) are identified using the
method described in Annex F.
The inorganic constituents are kept for further IR examination (Annex C), determination of titanium
dioxide (Annex D) and the glass bead/premix content (Annex E).
