Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO15710 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC35, Paints and varnishes,
Subcommittee SC 9, General test methods for paints and varnishes.
Annex A forms a normative part of this International Standard.

ISO 15710:2002(E)
Introduction
Coatings of paints, varnishes and similar materials are exposed to alternating wet and dry (humid) cyclic conditions
using a specified salt solution in a cabinet in order to simulate, in the laboratory, processes occurring in aggressive
outdoor conditions. Generally, correlations between such outdoor weathering and laboratory testing cannot be
expected because of the large number of factors influencing the breakdown process. Correlation can only be
expected if the effect on the coating of important parameters (e.g. nature of the salt, spectral distribution of the
incident radiation in the relevant photochemical region, temperature of the specimen, type and cycle of wetting and
relative humidity) is known. In contrast to outdoor weathering, laboratory testing in a cabinet is performed under a
reduced number of variables which can be controlled and therefore the effects are more reproducible. The method
may also give a means of checking that the quality of a paint or paint system is being maintained.
The method has been found to be useful in comparing the alternate immersion/emersion salt solution resistance of
different coatings. It is most useful in providing relevant ratings for a series of coated panels exhibiting significant
differences in alternate immersion/emersion salt solution resistance.
This method is intended principally for testing paints used in aerospace applications. The types of conditions
specified may occur as an aircraft flies through a variety of environments including sudden changes in temperature
and pressure. The results of the test specified in this International Standard will give an indication of the ability of a
paint system to withstand these corrosive atmospheres.
