This method describes a procedure for determining the metallic zinc content in zinc dust and inorganic zinc silicate paints.

This method describes a procedure for determining the metallic zinc content in zinc dust and inorganic zinc silicate paints. The method is suitable for use with zinc dust and with solvent-borne or water-borne inorganic zinc silicate paints known by analysis to be free of other materials which react with acids to produce gaseous by-products.
