Overview
EN 13523-5:2014 is a European standard developed by CEN that specifies the test method for evaluating the resistance to rapid deformation-commonly known as the impact test-of organic coatings on coil coated metal substrates. This standard measures the coating’s ability to withstand cracking and/or pick-off when subjected to sudden mechanical impacts expressed in terms of energy absorbed by the specimen.
Primarily applied to coil coated metals used across various industries, EN 13523-5:2014 ensures reliable performance criteria for coated metal products exposed to rapid mechanical stresses during manufacturing, handling, or service.
Key Topics
Scope and Purpose
Defines procedures for determining the resistance of organic coatings on metallic substrates to rapid deformation, focusing on cracking and pick-off resistance.Test Principle
A specimen is deformed by a falling weight with a hemispherical striker, typically impacting the reverse side of the coated panel to create a dome-shaped indentation. Assessment follows to detect cracking or loss of adhesion.Test Apparatus and Materials
- Falling weight apparatus equipped with a 20 mm diameter hemispherical striker
- Magnifying glass with 10× magnification for coating inspection
- Transparent pressure-sensitive adhesive tape with defined adhesion performance for pick-off evaluation
Test Procedure
Conducted at ambient or controlled temperature and humidity (23 ± 2 °C and 50 ± 5 % RH recommended), the test involves dropping specified weights from preset heights to induce deformation energy. Visual assessment and tape tests detect coating integrity post-impact.Result Expression and Reporting
Results are expressed in Joules, representing the energy level the coating withstands without cracking or pick-off. Test reports include product identification, test results, any deviations, anomalies, and testing dates for traceability.Normative References
Incorporates complementary standards relevant to coil coated metals and paint testing, including EN 13523-0 (general introduction), EN ISO 6272-1 (impact resistance test), and EN 60454-2 (adhesive tape testing).
Applications
Quality Control in Coil Coating Industry
Ensures the durability and mechanical resistance of coil coated metal products used for roofing, cladding, automotive, and appliance manufacturing.Product Development and Specification Compliance
Assists manufacturers in verifying the robustness of organic coatings under rapid mechanical stresses, enabling improvements in coating formulations and process parameters.Performance Benchmarking
Provides a standardized basis for comparing coatings from different suppliers or production batches in terms of impact resistance.Regulatory and Contractual Verification
Supports compliance with industry and customer requirements by delivering reproducible and recognized test results relevant to coating performance.
