TS 8657 Varnishes - Standard Test Method for Phthalic Resin

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of TS 8657 test. TS 8657 is also valid for phthalic resin based varnishes. Varnishes are coatings applied to protect a surface or improve its appearance. Phthalic resin-based varnishes are a type of varnish that uses phthalic resins as the primary ingredient. These resins are widely used in paint and varnish production due to their excellent adhesion, durability and resistance to heat and chemicals.

According to TSE 8657, phthalic resin-based varnishes are classified as dangerous goods and should be labeled accordingly.

The hazards associated with these varnishes include:

Flammability: Phthalic resin-based varnishes are flammable and easily ignited. They should be stored in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from sources of ignition.

Toxicity: Some chemicals used in phthalic resin-based varnishes can be toxic if inhaled or swallowed. Workers handling these polishes should wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves, goggles and respirators.

Environmental hazards: Phthalic resin-based varnishes can be harmful to the environment if not disposed of properly. They should be disposed of according to local regulations.

In general, TS 8657 plays an important role in ensuring the safe handling and use of phthalic resin-based varnishes. By classifying and labeling these varnishes according to their hazards, this standard helps protect workers, consumers and the environment from harm.
