The ISO 6270-2 standard, published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), describes the general conditions and procedures that must be observed when testing coated test specimens in either constant condensate atmospheres or varying condensate atmospheres to ensure the verification of repeatable test results performed in different laboratories. The shape and preparation of test specimens, the duration of the test and the evaluation of test results are not covered by this standard.

This document aims to provide consistent conditions and procedures for conditioning pre-made test specimens that will be evaluated for defects that may occur when exposed to humid environments such as constant condensate atmospheres or alternating condensate atmospheres.
This test method is designed to clarify the behavior of test specimens in humid atmospheres and to detect any defects in the corrosion protection of test specimens. However, testing coatings in these atmospheres does not necessarily yield lifetime prediction data. After conditioning, test specimens are evaluated either according to agreed documents, such as the appropriate parts of the ISO 4628 standard, or according to procedures agreed upon between interested parties.
In fact, the ISO 6270 standard consists of the following sections under the heading "Paints and varnishes - Determination of resistance to moisture":
In short, according to the ISO 6270-2 standard, the condensed water test is a proven test procedure in surface coating technology and serves to clarify the behavior of coated test pieces in a humid environment. During the test, the condensation of humid air on the surface of a coated test piece is obtained under defined ambient conditions in a protected climate chamber.
Our organization, among the numerous test, measurement, analysis and evaluation studies it has given for businesses in various sectors, with its trained and expert staff and advanced technological equipment, within the scope of the ISO 6270-1 standard, within the framework of the determination of the resistance of paints and varnishes against moisture (unilateral exposure). ) also provides testing services.
