ASTM D1475

ASTM D1475 is a standard test method used to measure the density of paints, coatings, and similar materials. Density indicates how much mass is contained in a specific volume, which can affect the application and performance of these products. The test involves weighing a known volume of the substance and calculating its density. This information is essential for manufacturers and consumers to ensure proper formulation, application rates, and compliance with regulations. Understanding density helps in predicting how a paint or coating will perform once applied.
