Deisgned with a simple combination of black and white sections with sufficient area for measuring the opacity with the help of various available opacity testers, and visual comparasion.

Testing Standard used for such testing are ASTM D 344, ASTM D 2805, & ISO 6504-3

Various Type of available charts are :

Opacity F - 2A

Opacity F - 2C

Opacity F - 5C

Opacity F - 3B

Designed for visual evaluation of hiding power, Checker board design have a strong visual impact and emphasize variations in film opacity.

in order to calculate the speading rate ASTM D 344 uses forms 10H and 8H is used.

Under this design the paint is spred uniformally on a defined test area (0.1 square meters ~ 1 swuare foot) and the sprading rate is calculated from the weight and density of the applied coating.

Available Chart

Spreading Rate 10A

Spreading Rate 10B

This are thick rigid cards, easy to handle. suitable for regular drawdown with brush.

Forms 5DX Brushout card

Forms 2DX Brushout card

Many of the Coating are done on metals structures, metal body, etc.. testing on the finished product is not economic for any coater. where are in various standard the sample size of the coated substance is priscribed.

These panels can be used for such making samples as priscribed in the standards and it even helps in avoiding the use of the finished products for testing purpose.

The procdure is simple : just coat the panels as the finish product is to be done and carry out all the necessary test which is also acceptable in standards.

Various available size and Types of Panels are

MS (Mild Steel) : 6" x 4"

TIN Panel : 6" x 2"

Glass Panel : on request.

Suitable for Testing Ink Quality
