ISO 9514:2005

ISO 9514:2005 describes a method, carried out under standard conditions, for preparing and storing a sample of a multicomponent coating system and subsequently assessing its pot life by measuring a particular property/ies. The method can be carried out either as a pass/fail test by determining the particular property/ies after a specified period of time, or as determination of the pot life by repeating determinations at convenient intervals of time. This International Standard is not intended for in situ control of products during their application. It is intended to determine 'pot life' in the laboratory.
