Frequency	For this ILC, there is a risk that the number of registrations is low. To ensure an enough number participants, a pre-registration procedure is put in place, as follows:
	1 - Participants interested in participating pre-register using the registration form. No invoicing is made for this pre-registration;
	2 - When at least 10 potential participants have pre-registered, CompaLab asks each of these pre-registrees to confirm their willingness to participate and what are the characteristics for which they commit to provide results;
	3 - If at least 8 participants confirm their intention to participate, the CIL organisation concerned is engaged.
Main characteristics	ρ (volumetric mass), NV (non volatile percentage)

Determination of the assigned values (“true values” for each characteristic)	By statistical computation of the totality of the results with possible selection on competence criteria (accreditation, validation by a reference body, quantity of tests performed in the year), test to detect possible collusion, merging of results not obtained in reproductibility conditions, suppression of technically unvalid results.
Type of statistical computation	For numerical results, the statistical computation will provide an assigned value with its attached uncertainty, values of standard deviations for repeatability and reproductibility, limits of alerts for bias and repeatability of the participant, indiviual values for uncertainty of results of participants.
Number of products submitted to tests	1
Number of samples per participation	3
Max number of operators per participation	10 (For this ILC, the type of test and sample size allow to provide results determined by several different operators and by several different methods)
Product submitted to tests	Liquid paint
Type of samples	Flasks
Approximate dimensions of samples	0,5 l
Specific preparation to be performed by the participant	None (other than possible necessity to polish the test specimens or to adapt their dimensions to the equipment of the participant)

Special notice for this ILC	Results obtained by several methods may be provided. The measurement of viscosity in accordance with the ISO 2431 standard has been removed from the scope of this ILC.
