Overview
This document aims to enable users to identify an appropriate method for the determination of volatile organic compounds (VOC) content and/or the semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOC) content of coating materials and their raw materials. This document provides a step-by-step procedure for identifying appropriate tests. This document is intended to be used in conjunction with ISO 11890-1, ISO 11890-2 and ISO 17895, to help users select an appropriate analytical method for their analytical problem. The responsible German standardization committee is Working Committee NA 002-00-15 AA "Bautenbeschichtungen" ("Coatings for masonry") at DIN Standards Committee Coatings and Coating Materials (NAB).
