Scope
This European Standard specifies the procedure for evaluating the behaviour of an organic coating on a metallic
substrate during and after outdoor exposure. Panel design, preparation and the procedure for outdoor exposure are
performed in accordance with EN 13523-19.
After washing of the panel some dirt can remain on the panel. This remaining dirt can influence the accuracy and
precision of readings of gloss and colour, performed on exposed panels, although carried out in accordance with the
standards. Unlike other precise measurements, the objective of this European Standard is to report on trends in the
corrosion and/or paint degradation behaviour of coil coated panels.

Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN 13523-0:2001 apply.
4
Principle
The behaviour of the test panels exposed in accordance with EN 13523-19 is evaluated. Any degradation in the
relevant area is reported, using the relevant parts of EN 13523 and appropriate EN ISO Standards.
In cases where the inspection area is limited (e.g. at screws and bends), the evaluation method described in the
EN ISO 4628 standard series is replaced by an easier and more suitable measurement of the degradation in
millimetres.

EN 13523-21:2010 (E)
Where possible, the results of symmetrical areas, e.g. left and right edges, are combined and the average value is
reported.
The inspection of the 45° panel (panel 1) will focus on paint degradation, whereas the 90° panel (panel 2) and the 5°
panel (panel 3) are mainly evaluated for corrosion.
NOTE 1
Panel designations (1, 2, 3) are as defined in EN 13523-19.
NOTE 2
Due to restrictions in the available flat area, the number of recommended readings might vary from other parts of
EN 13523 and relevant EN ISO Standards.
5
It is strongly recommended to take a photograph of each exposed panel at each inspection.
Apparatus and materials
5.1
Gloss meter, in accordance with EN 13523-2.
5.2
Apparatus for colour measurement, in accordance with EN 13523-3.
5.3
Apparatus for measurement of chalking, in accordance with EN 13523-14.
5.4
Washing solution, containing 0,5 % (by mass) of a mild non-reactive detergent (pH 6 to 7) in water.
5.5
Cloth or sponge, non-abrasive and smooth.
6
Sampling
See EN 13523-0.
7
Test panels
See EN 13523-0.
8
Procedure
8.1
General
Evaluate the coating properties at ambient temperature.
The panels should be inspected not less than every six months in the first year and yearly afterwards. Colour
measurements on metallics as well as gloss and colour measurements on textured and embossed surfaces are only
indicative.
8.2
Preparation
8.2.1 Ensure that results of the measurements of gloss in accordance with EN 13523-2 and colour in accordance
with EN 13523-3 are available before exposure of the test panels.
When using reference panels, these panels shall be kept in an envelope and not exposed to any light source.
8.2.2
Some measurements require a washed area prior to inspection. Washing shall be performed as follows:
Wash the upper 1/3 part of the 45° panel with washing solution (5.4) at ambient temperature (see Note). Use the cloth
or sponge (5.5) to gently clean the surface. Rinse with water at ambient temperature and air dry at ambient
temperature.

NOTE
8.3
Washing should be carried out in such a way that the other 2/3 of the panel is not affected.
Evaluation
8.3.1
General
The following procedure specifies the sets of different readings that are taken. For each panel the procedure is
accompanied by a table summarising the different measurements and the relevant standard test methods.
8.3.2
Panel 1 (45° panel)
A summary of the different measurements and evaluations on panel 1 is given in Table 1.
For gloss and colour change, measurements shall be performed on the washed area of the panel. Chalking and the
evaluation of the overall surface shall be performed on the unwashed area of the panel. Cracking on the bend shall be
evaluated on both the washed and unwashed area of the panel.
Inspect the panels as indicated in a) to e) below.
--`,,```,,,,````-`-`,,`,,`,`,,`---
a) Change in gloss
Measure the gloss in accordance with EN 13523-2. Perform the reading parallel with the bend and report the
average value of not less than three measurements. Use the same measurement angle as has been used for
the initial measurement prior to exposure and report this angle. Report both initial gloss and gloss after
exposure from which the change in gloss and the gloss retention can be calculated.
b) Colour change
Carry out the measurement in accordance with EN 13523-3. The colour change is the difference between the
initial L*, a*, b* values and the L*, a*, b* values after exposure. Report initial and inspection measurements L*,
a*, b* and changes ∆L*, ∆a*, ∆b* and ∆E.
c) Chalking
Perform the measurement and report the results in accordance with EN 13523-14.
d) Cracking on the bend
Inspect the bend visually for cracking. Report the presence of cracks as the distance, in millimetres, from the
1T side to the last sign of cracking.
e) Overall surface evaluation
The overall surface is defined as the flat surface of panel 1 excluding edges and bends.
Inspect the overall surface of the panel for blisters in accordance with EN ISO 4628-2, for cracking in accordance
with EN ISO 4628-4, for flaking in accordance with EN ISO 4628-5 and for corrosion in accordance with
EN ISO 4628-3.
Report all other observations, e.g. dirt, mildew, etc., as remarks.
8.3.3
Panel 2 (90° panel)
A summary of the different measurements and evaluations on panel 2 is given in Table 2.
NOTE
The inspection is limited to the evaluation of corrosion. Evaluation of the degree of paint degradation can be
performed but this panel orientation is not recommended for it. The 45° panel (panel 1) is more appropriate.
The inspection shall be performed on unwashed panels. Any deviations from the specified inspection shall be reported.
Inspect the panels as indicated in a) to g) below.
