Determination of flash/no flash - Closed cup equilibrium method

This International Standard specifies a method to determine if paints, varnishes, paint binders, solvents, petroleum or related products, when maintained at a selected equilibrium temperature and under the conditions of the test, give off sufficient flammable vapour to cause ignition on application of an external source of flame applied in a standard manner. This International Standard is not applicable to water-borne paints which may, however, be tested using ISO 3680. The method is suitable for use over the temperature range -30 °C to 110 °C, depending on the use of different apparatus listed in Table 1. The interpretation of results obtained from solvent mixtures containing halogenated hydrocarbons, should be considered with caution, as these mixtures can give anomalous results.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department
To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
