The ISO 17872 standard provides operational guidelines for introducing scratch on sheet metal coatings for corrosion testing. This method assesses the durability and protective performance of coatings in a corrosion environment by scratching the surface of the coating to simulate the mechanical damage that the coating may encounter in actual use. The standard details the type, size, depth and location requirements for scratch and provides operational steps and precautions to ensure that the introduction of scratch has minimal impact on the test results.
