Abstract

This Uganda Standard covers the determination of the content of chromium (including chromium oxide) in the range between 0.005 and 1.0 % present in the solids of liquid coatings or in dried films obtained from previously coated substrates. There is no reason to believe that higher levels could not be determined by this test method, provided that appropriate dilutions and adjustments in specimen size and reagent quantities are made. (This standard is an adoption of ASTM D3718-85a, Standard Test Method for Low Concentrations of Chromium in Paint by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy). This standard was published on 15 June 2021.
