This standard specifies the methods for determination of viscosity of coatings with Paint-1 & Paint-4 viscometers and falling sphere viscometer.
The Paint-1 viscometer in this Standard is applicable to the determination of coating products with flow time not less than 20s; The Paint-4 viscometer is applicable to the determination of coating with flow time within 150s; while the falling sphere viscometer is applicable to the determination of transparent coating products with higher viscosity.
This Standard is applicable to the determination of coating semi-finished products with similar viscosity and other relevant products.
