EN ISO 7783-1 Paints and Varnishes - Determination of Water Vapor Transmission Rate - Part 1: Cup Method for Free Films

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of EN ISO 7783-1 testing. This international standard specifies a method for determining the water vapor transmission rate of an unsupported paint, varnish or related product film. The test method is applicable to the conduction of water vapor in both directions through a paint film.

EN ISO 7783-1 Paints and Varnishes - Determination of Water Vapor Transmission Rate - Part 1: Cup Method for Free Films

This part of EN ISO 7783 is one of a series of Standards for the sampling and testing of paints, varnishes and related products. Describes a method for determining the water vapor transmission rate of an unsupported paint film. EN ISO 7783-21) describes a method for determining the water vapor transmission rate of a paint film supported by a porous substrate.

The water vapor transmission rate is most commonly of interest when the coating is applied to a porous Substrate. Depending on the conditions of use, water vapor can be expected to pass through the pavement in both directions.

The procedure is generally used to compare the transmission rates of two or more different paint films and is not used to obtain precise results. In the latter case, it may be preferable to perform the detection on a test piece coated with a suitable permeable Substrate. The procedure for making this determination is the subject of EN ISO 7783-2.
