Paints and related materials - Methods of test Resistance to impact - Falling weight test (Gardner-type tester)
Standards Australia
This Standard sets out two procedures for assessing the resistance of paint systems to the impact of a hemispherically-tipped indenter.
The method for checking the adhesion using this test may not be suitable in all cases. For example, it should not be used where the thickness of the paint system is less than 50 µm.
For the coil coating industry reference may also need to be made to AS 2728.
