1.1These test methods cover procedures for the chemical analysis of metallic zinc powder in the form commercially known as zinc dust for use as a pigment in paints.

1.2The analytical procedures appear in the following order:

	Sections
Moisture and Other Volatile Matter	7
Coarse Particles	8
Matter Soluble in Hexane	9 and 10
Total Zinc	11 and 12
Metallic Zinc	13 and 14
Zinc Oxide	15
Calcium	16 and 17
Lead	18
Iron	19
Cadmium	20
Chlorine	21 and 22
Sulfur	23 and 24

1.3The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

1.4This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

1.5This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
