This British Standard was first published in1964 as a composition specification, which was subsequently revised in1970
8、. The latter edition reduced the number of grades specified in the1964 edition to a general-purpose product of medium consistency, but the specification continued to rely on a composition requirement. Nevertheless, in the1970 edition it was recognized that, to allow for product improvement, the spec
9、ification had to be based on performance criteria, although at that time it had not proved practicable to define a suitable reference paint surface on which to carry out a test for paint-removing properties. This was overcome, and the1986 edition included a test for assessing the paint-removing prop
10、erty. It also covered dichloromethane 1) -containing paint removers conforming to this standard. Although paint removers manufactured in accordance with this standard can be considered non-flammable in their general use, the Technical Committee responsible for this standard decided in1986 that the t
11、erm “non-flammable” should be deleted from the title of the standard. It was believed that the term could lead to laxity and abuse by users, particularly as there were no means of ensuring that containers of these paint removers were closed against loss of dichloromethane. Attention is drawn to the
12、hazards associated with the chlorinated hydrocarbons in these paint removers, and to the precautions, including the need to avoid smoking and naked flames and the necessity for good ventilation that have to be taken during their use. The water rinsability test was modified in1986 and it is emphasize
13、d to users that, after application of paint removers conforming to this standard, it is essential to wash the surface thoroughly free from waxy and other residues. These residues comprise constituents of the paint remover, which will, if left on the surface, inhibit the drying of a subsequent paint
14、coating. Solvents other than water may be used to wash the surface, but the hazards associated with these solvents have to be considered before their use in confined areas. Paint removers conforming to this standard are not considered suitable for use on items where attack of metals, caused by react
15、ion between the metal and the paint remover, is regarded as critical (e.g.metallic surfaces of aircraft and electronic equipment). Furthermore, a number of plastics surfaces may also be seriously affected by constituents of these paint removers. After application to a painted surface, the paint remo
16、ver is allowed to remain undisturbed until the paint film has become softened, swollen or blistered overall. It is subsequently removed, together with the affected paint film, by scraping, followed by washing with water or a suitable solvent, such as white spirit, or a solvent compatible with the co
17、ating system to be applied. More than one application of the paint remover may be necessary. Certain types of coating, such as some stoving, cold-cured or polymeric materials, may not be readily acted upon by these paint removers. For the removal of such special coatings, or if the substrate is atta
18、cked by constituents of the paint removers, manufacturers should supply removers appropriate to the specific case, although these would not necessarily conform to this standard. In the drafting of this British Standard it has been assumed that the tests described in this standard will be used by tho
19、se who are appropriately qualified and experienced. 1) Dichlormethane is commonly known as methylene chloride.BS3761:1995 BSI 07-1999 iii WARNING NOTE. Paint removers conforming to this standard contain dichloromethane. Particular attention is drawn to the hazards associated with dichloromethane, wh
20、ich is classified as harmful by inhalation, by contact with the skin or if swallowed; it is also classified as a class3 carcinogen with the possible risk of irreversible effects. It is essential that products containing this material are packaged in accordance with current national regulations. A Br
21、itish Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a fr

23、Scope This British Standard specifies requirements for solvent-based paint removers applied by brush. The paint removers are intended for general use on surfaces of painted, varnished or lacquered wood, plaster or metal. As supplied, paint removers conforming to this standard will be non-flammable a
24、nd will not be suitable for some substrates (seeforeword). 2 Normative references This British Standard incorporates, by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are made at the appropriate places in the text and the cited publications are listed on
25、the inside back cover. For dated references, only the edition cited applies; any subsequent amendments to or revisions of the cited publication apply to this British Standard only when incorporated in the reference by amendment or revision. For undated references, the latest edition of the cited pub
26、lication applies, together with any amendments. 3 Definitions For the purposes of this British Standard, the definitions given in BS2015 apply together with the following. paint remover at a temperature of23 C 2 C, a homogeneous liquid based on dichloromethane, together with agents to give the requi
27、red consistency, to confer miscibility with water and to limit the rate of evaporation, used to remove paint NOTEPaint remover may also contain corrosion inhibitors. 4 Sampling Representative samples to give a test sample of not less than1000ml of the product shall be taken and stored in accordance
28、with BS EN21512. 5 Performance NOTEWhen carrying out the tests referred to in5.1 to5.8, the precautions given in the warning note in the introduction should be observed. 5.1 Rate of evaporation When tested in accordance withAnnex A, the product shall not lose more than2% (m/m) by evaporation.
