ISO 8502-9

Introducing ISO 8502-9 – Industrial Physics

ISO 8502-9 is an international ISO standard that will help you to prepare steel substrates before you apply paints, inks and other coatings.  

Part nine of this ISO standard relates to assessing a steel surface’s cleanliness with a conductometric determination of water-soluble salts, before or after surface preparation. 

ISO 8502-9 assesses contaminants that form an electrolyte (ions) when in contact with water. One thing to point out is that the individual surface densities of the salt composition – such as chlorides, sulfates or sodium – can’t be determined with this method.  

There are several parts to ISO 8502. For example, to learn about how this ISO standard suggests you should extract soluble contaminants for analysis using the Bresle test method.

ISO 8502-9 testing devices

So, how can Industrial Physics improve your ISO 8502-9 testing? 

TQC Sheen Bresle KIT – Sodium Chloride Test KIT 

If you need to assess the level of soluble salts on a surface to ISO 8502-6 standards then look no further than the TQC Sheen Bresle test kit and chloride test kit. 

Developed by TQC Sheen, our paint testing specialist brand, our Bresle test kit and chloride test kit is perfect for companies that work within marine coatings, protective coatings and pipeline coatings. It will help you to detect the presence of soluble salts expressed in milligrams per square meter. 

TQC Sheen Pretreatment Test Kit 

When you’re testing to ISO 8502-6 standards be sure to take full control at every stage in the process! Our handy Bresle test pretreatment test kit will help you to achieve this.
