This standard deals with measuring the water vapor permeability of organic coatings, assessing their ability to allow water vapor to pass through. This is particularly important for coatings in applications such as exterior wood and masonry. Using both the cheering and wet cup test methods, this standard provides a means of measuring the water vapor permeability of coatings, helping to design and select Coatings suitable for specific environmental conditions.
