Measurement Method for Organic Coating Thickness Described in Proposed Standard
W. CONSHOHOCKEN, PA – A proposed ASTM International standard describes a way of measuring organic coating film thickness without destroying the coating itself. ASTM’s Committee on Paint and Related Coatings, Materials, and Applications (D01) is developing the proposed standard (WK68904).
“In many industries, the thickness of coating layer applied is both important and difficult to measure accurately,” said ASTM International member Eddie Baron, Director of Research and Development, Beckers. “This proposed standard attempts to provide an accurate way to measure this thickness.”
