Provides a test procedure for determining consistency use ISO style flow cups. Identical with ISO 2431:1993.

This International Standard is one of a series of standards dealing with the sampling and testing of paints, varnishes and related products.This International Standard specifies a method for determining the flow time of paints, varnishes and related products that may be used to control consistency. A method for the adjustment of paints to the correct application consistency at the application temperature is described in annex A.Four flow cups of similar dimensions, but having orifice diameters of 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm and 6 mm, are specified. The method for their calibration is given. 1.4 The method is limited to testing materials for which the breakpoint of the flow from the orifice of the flow cup can be determined with certainty. This point is difficult to determine and reproduce for materials with flow times in excess of 100 s due to slowing-down effects.
