Historical Standard: ASTM D5531-94(2003) Standard Guide for Preparation, Maintenance, and Distribution of Physical Product Standards for Color and Geometric Appearance of Coatings
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM D5531
1. Scope
1.1 This guide covers three levels of physical product standards for color commonly used in the coatings industry, provides terminology to describe each level, and describes techniques for generating standards.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
1.3 This 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 and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
