I.S. ISO 2884:1988

Specifies the general procedure to be followed in determining the dynamic viscosity of paints, varnishes and related products at a rate of shear not less than 5,000 s-1 and not higher than 20,000 s-1. When the viscosities of products are being compared the rate of shear shall be approximately the same. The method specified is suitable for all brushing paints and varnishes whether they are Newtonian in behaviour or not.
