Scope

The method describes the quantitative determination of the concentration of in-can free formaldehyde in water-dilutable coating materials.
Note: The standard can also be applied for polymer dispersions.
The determination method for in-can free formaldehyde can be only of limited suitability for pigmented systems, as the inherent coloration of the material may have an influence on the detection method.
