Full title and description
Binders for paints and varnishes — Chlorinated polymerization resins — General methods of test. This International Standard specifies general test methods applicable to chlorinated polymerization resins (including chlorinated rubber and vinyl chloride copolymers) used as binders in paints, varnishes and related products.
Abstract
ISO 11668:1997 defines standardized procedures and reporting requirements to determine key characteristics of chlorinated polymerization resins used in coatings. It provides general approaches for sampling and for measuring properties such as colour, viscosity, density and chlorine content, and references more specific ISO test methods where applicable. The standard is intended to ensure consistent, comparable test results across laboratories and suppliers.
General information
- Status: Published; internationally confirmed standard (reviewed and confirmed in 2022).
- Publication date: 13 November 1997.
- Publisher: ISO — International Organization for Standardization.
- ICS / categories: 87.060.20 (Binders for paints and varnishes).
- Edition / version: Edition 1 (1997).
- Number of pages: 6 pages.
Scope
Specifies general methods of test for chlorinated polymerization resins intended for use as binders in paints, varnishes and similar materials. The standard covers chlorinated rubber and vinyl chloride copolymers and indicates which specific test methods or referenced ISO standards should be used for particular determinations; choices for some methods are to be agreed between interested parties.
Key topics and requirements
- Definitions and classification of chlorinated polymerization resins (chlorinated rubber and vinyl chloride copolymers).
- Guidance on representative sampling of binder material (reference to appropriate sampling practice).
- Colour measurement procedures (references to ISO colour scales such as Gardner and platinum–cobalt where applicable).
- Viscosity measurement methods and acceptable instrumentation/conditions (references to ISO rotational viscometer methods).
- Density determination techniques and recommended apparatus.
- Chlorine-content determination procedures (different analytical approaches depending on chlorine level).
- Requirements for test reporting: identification, method used, test conditions, results and any deviations.
Typical use and users
Used by coatings formulators, quality-control laboratories, test laboratories, raw-material suppliers and purchasers of chlorinated binders to verify conformance and compare batches. It supports specification writing, incoming inspection, supplier qualification and regulatory/commercial testing in the paints and varnishes industry.
Related standards
ISO 11668:1997 references or is used together with other ISO test standards for coatings and liquids — examples include standards for colour determination (ISO 4630, ISO 6271), viscosity measurement (ISO 3219), density/pycnometer methods (ISO 8130‑2) and chlorine analysis methods (e.g., ISO 1158) — and it has been adopted in regional/national collections (for example EN ISO 11668:2001 / DIN EN ISO 11668).

Q: What does it cover?
A: It covers general testing approaches for chlorinated rubber and vinyl chloride copolymers, including guidance on sampling, colour, viscosity, density and chlorine-content determinations, and it points to more specific ISO test methods for particular measurements.
Q: Who typically uses it?
A: Coatings formulators, QC and R&D laboratories, raw-material suppliers, procurement/specification teams and standards bodies in the paints and varnishes sector.
Q: Is it current or superseded?
