Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bedies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. Esch 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
Iiaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Kommission (lEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technrcal committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
International Standard ISO 7253 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 35, Paints and varnishes,
Subcommittee SC 9, Genera/ fest methods forpaints and varnishes.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 7253:1984) of which it constitutes a technical
revision. The main changes are:
a) the addition of a calibration procedure to check the corrosivity within the apparatus;
b) more details have been given on the preparation of the scratches to be applied to the Panels.
Annexes A, B and C are an integral part of this International Standard.

lntroduction
There is seldom a direct relationship between the resistance of organic coatings to the action of salt Spray (fog) and
the resistance to corrosion in other environments. This is because the effect of each of the several factors
influencing the progress of corrosion, such as the formation of protective films, varies greatly with the conditions
encountered. Therefore, the results obtained in the test should not be regarded as a direct guide to the corrosion
resistance of the tested coatings in all environments where these coatings may be used. Also, Performance sf
different coatings in the test should not be taken as a direct guide to the relative corrosion resistance of these
coatings in Service, even under the severe conditions of marine exposure. Nevertheless, the method described
gives a means of checking that the quality of a paint or paint System is being maintained.
NOTE 1 The apparatus and operating conditions described in this International Standard comply, but do not necessarily
equate, with ISO 9227:1990, Corrosion tests in artificial atmospheres - SaIt Spray tests. The minimum size of cabinet
permissible for testing paints, varnishes and related products is greater (see 6.1).

3 Principle
A coated test Panel is exposed to neutral salt Spray (fog) and the effects of exposure are evaluated by criteria
agreed in advance between the interested Parties, these criteria usually being of a subjective nature.
4 Required supplementary information
For any particular application, the test method specified in this International Standard needs to be completed by
supplementary information. The items of supplementary information are given in annex A.
5 Test solution
5.1 The test Solution shall be prepared by dissolving sodium chloride in water of at least grade 3 purity as defined in
ISO 3696 to produce a concentration of (50 t 5) g/l. The sodium chloride shall be white, of minimum assay 99,6 %
(mlm), and substantially free from topper and nickel; it shall contain not more than 0,l o/o (mlm) of sodium iodide. If
the pH of the Solution is outside the range 6,0 to 7,0, the presence of undesirable impurities in the salt or the water
or both shall be investigated.
5.2 The pH of the test Solution (5.1) shall be adjusted so that the pH of sprayed Solution collected within the test
cabinet (see clause 6) shall be between 6,5 and 7,2. Any necessary adjustment to the pH shall be made by
additions of solutions of either hydrochloric acid or sodium bicarbonate of analytical grade.
NOTE 2 Attention is drawn to the possible changes in pH resulting from loss of carbon dioxide from the test Solution when it is
sprayed. Such changes may be avoided by reducing the carbon dioxide content of the Solution by, for example, heating it to a
temperature above 35 “C before it is placed in the apparatus or by making the Solution from freshly boiled water.

6 Apparatus
Ordinary laboratory apparatus and glassware, together with the following:
6.1 A Spray cabinet, made of, or lined with, material resistant to corrosion by the Spray and with a roof which
prevents condensed moisture dripping on to the test Panels. The cabinet shall have a capacity of not less than
O,4 m3 since, with smaller volumes, difficulties are experienced in ensuring even distribution of Spray.
The size and shape of the cabinet shall be such that the quantity of Solution collected in the spray-collecting devices
(6.4) is within the limits stated in 10.2.

6.2 Adjustable heater, adequate to maintain the cabinet and its contents at the specified temperature (see 10.1).
The temperature shall be controlled by a thermostat element placed within the cabinet at least 100 mm from the
Walls. A thermometer, capable of being read from the outside, shall be placed wholly within the cabinet at least
100 mm from the Walls, roof or floor.
6.3 Spraying device, comprising a supply of clean compressed air of constant pressure and humidity, a reservoir
containing the Solution to be sprayed and one or more Spray nozzles made of material resistant to the Solution.

The compressed air supply to each Spray nozzle shall be passed through a filter to remove all traces of oil or solid
matter and shall be at a pressure of 70 kPa to 170 kPa*). In Order to prevent evaporation sf the Spray droplets, the
air shall be humidified before entering each nozzle by passage through a Saturation column containing water of at
least grade 3 purity as defined in ISO 3696 at a temperature several degrees Celsius higher than that of the cabinet.
The actual temperature of the water will depend on the pressure used and on the type of Spray nozzle, and shall be
adjusted so that the rate of collection of Spray in the cabinet and the sodium chloride concentration of the Spray
collected are kept within the specified limits (see 10.2).
