Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through
ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee
has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations,
governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely
with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described
in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types
of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the
ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any patent
rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on the ISO list of

Introduction
The performance of protective coatings of paint and related products applied to steel is significantly
affected by the state of the steel surface immediately prior to painting. The principal factors that are known
to influence this performance are:
a) the presence of rust and mill scale;
b) the presence of surface contaminants, including salts, dust, oils and greases;
c) the surface profile.
The ISO 8501, ISO 8502 and ISO 8503 series have been prepared to provide methods of assessing these
factors, while the ISO 8504 series provides guidance on the preparation methods that are available for
cleaning steel substrates, indicating the capabilities of each in attaining specified levels of cleanliness.
These international standards do not contain recommendations for the protective coating systems to be
applied to the steel surface. Neither do they contain recommendations for the surface quality requirements
for specific situations, even though surface quality can have a direct influence on the choice of protective
coating to be applied and on its performance. Such recommendations are found in other documents such
as national standards and codes of practice. It is necessary for the users of these international standards to
ensure that the qualities specified are:
— compatible and appropriate both for the environmental conditions to which the steel will be exposed
and for the protective coating system to be used;
— within the capability of the cleaning procedure specified.
The four series of international standards referred to above deal with the following aspects of preparation
of steel substrates:
— visual assessment of surface cleanliness (see ISO 8501 series);
— tests for the assessment of surface cleanliness (see ISO 8502 series);
— surface roughness characteristics of blast-cleaned steel substrates (see ISO 8503 series);
— surface preparation methods (see ISO 8504 series).
Each of these series of international standards is in turn divided into separate parts.
This document, along with the other parts of the ISO 8502 series, specifies tests for the assessment of
surface cleanliness. In connection with such tests, there are several methods for the extraction, for analysis,
of soluble contaminants on surfaces to be painted. Some of these methods are based on the swabbing of
comparatively large test surfaces. This technique provides average values of the contamination present, but
it might conceal localized concentrations of contaminants. Swabbing might not ensure sufficient penetration
to dissolve all of the deep-seated contamination such as ferrous salts. Furthermore, the solvent used affects
the dissolution rate and what contaminants are dissolved. This document covers sampling with a weak acid
as solvent.
There are other methods, however, which use small cells for the liquid to remove and collect the surface
contaminants. The cells (rigid or flexible) are attached to test surfaces where soluble contaminants could
be expected, for example where pitting has occurred. This technique usually provides more accurate point
values of the contamination present.

Part 15:
Extraction of soluble contaminants for analysis by acid
extraction
1 Scope
This document specifies a method of extracting, for analysis, acid soluble contaminants from a surface by use
of flexible cells in the form of adhesive patches or sleeves which can be attached to any surface, regardless of
its shape (flat or curved) and its orientation (facing in any direction, including downwards).
The described method is suitable for use in the field to determine the presence of acid soluble contaminants
before painting or a similar treatment.
This document does not cover the subsequent analysis of the contaminants that have been dissolved off.
