Abstract

Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½± 11890-2:2006 is one of a series of standards dealing with the sampling and testing of paints, varnishes and related products.

It specifies a method for the determination of the volatile organic compound (VOC) content of paints, varnishes and their raw materials. Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½± 11890-2 is preferred if the expected VOC content is greater than 0,1 % by mass and less than about 15 % by mass. When the VOC content is greater than about 15 % by mass, the less complicated method given in Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½± 11890-1 may be used.

This method assumes that the volatile matter is either water or organic. However, other volatile inorganic compounds can be present and might need to be quantified by another suitable method and allowed for in the calculations.
