Paints and varnishes - Determination of mar resistance

ISO 12137:2011 specifies a method for determining, using a curved (loop-shaped or ring-shaped) stylus, the mar resistance of a single coating of a paint, varnish or related product, or the upper layer of a multicoat system. This test has been found to be useful in comparing the mar resistance of different coatings. It is most useful in providing relative ratings for a series of coated panels exhibiting significant differences in mar resistance. ISO 12137 does not specify a method using a pointed stylus, two of which are specified in ISO 1528‑1 and ISO 1528‑2, respectively. The choice between the three methods will depend on the particular practical problem.

Paints and varnishes - Determination of mar resistance - Part 1 : method using a curved stylus

Le présent document prescrit une méthode d'essai permettant de déterminer, à l'aide d'un stylet arrondi (en forme de boucle ou d'anneau), la résistance à la détérioration d'une couche unique de peinture, de vernis ou de produit assimilé, ou de la couche supérieure d'un système multicouche.
