Frequency

This ILC can be organised this year thanks to our preregistration procedure, which ensures an enough number of participants.

Main characteristics

Temperature of tests 60°C (140F) - Selected exposure times for assessment: 0, 3, 9 and 28 cycles of 24h - Rating of defects due to ageing in accordance with ISO 4628-2 and -3 - Cross-test against ISO 2409

 

after 28 cycles of 24h

Other characteristics

t (thickness of coating) in accordance with ISO 2808, Rating of defects due to ageing in accordance with ISO 4628-4 and 5, Gloss coefficients G20, G60, G85 in accordance with ISO 2813, Colorimetric parameters

 

L*-a*-b* in accordance with ISO 7724-1 to 3

 

Caution The number of determinations may be low for the secundary characteristics, what may make inefficient the comparison between laboratories

       

Format of the test results:

Results of some properties are numerical and some are expressed as a choice between several possibilities (categories).

 

 

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.

 

For results expressed as a choice between several possibilities (categories), Gower indexes are computed from the results, which enables the calculation of assigned values, repeatability and reproducibility standard deviations, limits of alerts for bias and repeatability of the participant, indiviual values for uncertainty of results of participants.
