Determination of flash/no flash - Rapid equilibrium closed cup method

ISO 3680:2004 specifies a method for the determination of the ability of paints (including water-borne paints), varnishes, paint binders, adhesives, solvents and petroleum and related products, when maintained at a selected test temperature within the range of - 30 degrees Celsius and 300 degrees Celsius, and under the conditions of test, to yield sufficient flammable vapour at this temperature to cause ignition on the application of a test flame in a standard manner. When used in conjunction with the flash detector (A.1.6), ISO 3680:2004 is also suitable to carry out a flash/no flash test on fatty acid methyl esters (FAME).

Determination of flash no-flash and flash point - Rapid equilibrium closed cup method

ISO 3679:2015 specifies procedures for flash point tests, within the temperature range of -30 °C to 300 °C, for paints, including water-borne paints, varnishes, binders for paints and varnishes, adhesives, solvents, petroleum, and related products. The procedures are used to determine whether a product will or will not flash at a specified temperature (flash no-flash Procedure A) or the flash point of a sample (Procedure B). When used in conjunction with a flash detector, ISO 3679:2015 is also suitable to determine the flash point of fatty acid methyl esters (FAME).
