JIS K-5407 Test Methods for Paint Components

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of JIS K-5407 testing. JIS K 5407 is a Japanese industrial standard that specifies test methods for paint components.

The standard covers the following paint components:

• Pigments;
• Extenders;
• Solvents;
• Additives.

The standard defines various methods for testing these components to ensure their quality and consistency.

Some methods include:

Determination of pigment content: This method involves the use of a centrifuge to separate the pigment from the dye. The pigment is then dried and weighed to determine its content.

Determination of non-volatile substance content: This method involves heating the paint to evaporate solvents and measuring the weight of the residue to determine the residual substance content.

Determination of grinding fineness: This method involves using a fineness of the grind measurement to determine the particle size distribution of the pigment.

Determination of viscosity: This method involves measuring the resistance of the paint to flow using a viscometer.

Determination of density: This method involves measuring the weight of a known volume of paint to determine its density.

These test methods are essential to ensure the quality and consistency of paint components critical to producing high quality paints.
