ISO 1460 Metallic Coatings - Hot Dip Galvanized Coatings on Ferrous Materials - Gravimetric Determination of Mass Per Unit Area

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of ISO 1460 standard. This standard specifies a method for determining the mass per unit area of ​​hot-dip galvanized coatings on ferrous materials.

ISO 1460 Metallic Coatings - Hot Dip Galvanized Coatings on Ferrous Materials - Gravimetric Determination of Mass Per Unit Area

Since it is essential to know the surface area exactly, this standard applies mainly to shapes whose areas are easy to determine.

The method is based on dissolving a known surface coating in inhibited acid and weighing the sample before and after dissolution to determine the resulting mass loss. Since knowledge of the area of ​​the surface is essential, it can be applied to shapes whose areas are easy to determine.

The hot dip galvanized coating on the surface of a known area is dissolved in the hindered acid and the resulting mass loss is determined by weighing the sample before and after the coating dissolves.

The amount of solution should be measured so that at least 10 ml of solution remains per square centimeter of sample surface. The sample should be completely immersed in the solution at room temperature and left until the coating has completely melted. The end of the dissolution process can be recognized by the end of hydrogen's initial living evolution.
