1、Designation:D512510(Reapproved 2020)1Standard Test Method forViscosity of Paints and Related Materials by ISO Flow Cups1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5125;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the yea
2、r of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1NOTEAn editorial change was made in 10.2.2 in December 2020.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the flowtime
3、(viscosity)of Newtonian and near-Newtonian paints,andrelated coatings and products using ISO capillary flow cups.NOTE1If the liquid is non-Newtonian,that is shear-thinning orthixotropic,Test Methods D2196 should be used.1.2 The cup-orifice combination(ISO cup with orificediameter of 3 mm,4 mm,5 mm,o
4、r 6 mm)2is selected toprovide an efflux time with the range of 20 to 100 s andviscosities up to 700 cSt(700 mm2/s).The most commonlyused cup is the one with the 4-mm orifice.1.3 This test method is limited to testing materials for whichthe breakpoint of the flow from the orifice of the flow cup canb
