This document specifies methods for determining the hiding power given by paint coats of white or
light colours of tristimulus values Y and Y10greater than 25, applied to a black and white chart, or to a colourless transparent foil. In the latter case the tristimulus values Y and Y10are measured over black and white panels. Subsequently, the hiding power is calculated from these tristimulus values.
This document also specifies a simple method for calculating the spreading rate for paints with
a volatile matter content with low evaporation speed, e.g. coatings for interior walls and ceilings as
specified in EN 13300.Cross References:ISO 3233-3:2015ISO 1513ISO 3251ISO 2811 (all parts)EN 13300ISO 15528ISO/TR 22971ISO 5725-2ISO 11664-4:2008ISO 11664-2:2007ISO 4618:2014All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
