What is BS EN 13523-27 - Metal’s resistance to humid poultice about?
Coil coating makes metal more durable and more corrosion-resistant than most other post painted metal. BS EN 13523-27 is the 27th part of the BS EN 13523 series that contains test methods on coil coated metals.
BS EN 13523-27 specifies a procedure for evaluating the resistance of an organic coating on a metallic substrate (coil coating) in conditions of extreme humidity (acid, alkaline and/or neutral).
Who is BS EN 13523-27 - Metal’s resistance to humid poultice for?
BS EN 13523-27 on metal’s resistance to humid poultice is useful for:
- Coil coated metal industries
- Metal coil product manufacturing companies
- Metal coil transport companies
- Quality management teams
Why should you use BS EN 13523-27 - Metal’s resistance to humid poultice?
Metals are coated with polyesters, polyurethanes, plastisols, polyvinylidene fluorides (PVDF), epoxies, backing coats, primers, and laminate films. Many layers of coating are applied to each product.
BS EN 13523-27 guides on:
- Specific solution
- Layers of sample
- Exposure
- Evaluation
