General methods of test for pigments and extenders - Part 3: Determination of matter soluble in water - Hot extraction method (ISO 787-3:2000)
This part of ISO 787 specifies a general method of test for determining the percentage by mass of matter soluble in hot water, in a sample of pigment or extender.
Allgemeine Prüfverfahren für Pigmente und Füllstoffe - Teil 3: Bestimmung des wasserlöslichen Anteile -Heißextraktionsverfahren (ISO 787-3:2000)
Dieser Teil von ISO 787 legt ein allgemeines Prüfverfahren zum Bestimmen des Massenanteils in % von in kochendem
Wasser löslichen Anteilen einer Pigment- oder Füllstoffprobe fest.ISO 787-8 legt ein Verfahren zum Bestimmen des Massenanteils in % von in Wasser löslichen Anteilen durch Kaltextraktion fest. Diese beiden Prüfverfahren führen bei den meisten Pigmenten und Füllstoffen zu unterschiedlichen Ergebnissen. Es ist deshalb wichtig, dass zu einer Anforderung angegeben wird, welches Verfahren anzuwenden ist, und im Prüfbericht, welches Verfahren angewendet wurde. ANMERKUNG Die in den zahlreichen Teilen von ISO 787 angegebenen allgemeinen Prüfverfahren sind im allgemeinen für jedes Pigment und für jeden Füllstoff anwendbar. Es braucht deshalb nur ein Querverweis auf den entsprechenden Teil von ISO 787 in die Internationale Norm für das entsprechende Pigment oder den Füllstoff
aufgenommen werden, mit einem Hinweis auf jede Abweichung, die im HInblick auf die besonderen Eigenschaften des betreffenden Produktes notwendig ist. Nur wenn die allgemeinen Verfahren für ein bestimmtes Produkt nicht anwendbar sind, ist ein abweichendes Verfahren zum Bestimmen der wasserlöslichen Anteile festzulegen.
Méthodes générales d'essai des pigments et matières de charge - Partie 3: Détermination des matières solubles dans l'eau - Méthode par extraction à chaud (ISO 787-3:2000)
La présente partie de l'ISO 787 spécifie une méthode générale d'essai pour la détermination du pourcentage en masse des matières solubles dans l'eau bouillante d'un échantillon de pigment ou de matière de charge. L'ISO 787-8 spécifie une méthode de détermination du pourcentage en masse des matières solubles dans l'eau froide. Pour la plupart des pigments et des matières de charge, ces deux méthodes donnent des résultats différents, et il est donc essentiel d'indiquer clairement, dans une spécification, la méthode qui doit être utilisée et, dans le rapport d'essai, la méthode qui a été utilisée. NOTE: Les méthodes générales décrites dans les différentes parties de l'ISO 787 s'appliquent généralement à n'importe quel pigment ou matière de charge. Il devra simplement être fait référence à la partie appropriée de l'ISO 787 dans la Norme internationale prescrivant les spécifications relatives à ce pigment ou à cette matière de charge, et toutes les modifications de détail qui peuvent être nécessaires en raison des propriétés particulières de la matière considérée devront être mentionnées. Ce n'est que dans le cas où les méthodes générales ne sont pas applicables à une matière particulière qu'il devient nécessaire de spécifier une autre méthode de détermination des matières solubles dans l'eau.

Overview
EN ISO 787-3:2000 - General Methods of Test for Pigments and Extenders – Part 3: Determination of Matter Soluble in Water – Hot Extraction Method is a key European and International Standard developed and published by CEN (European Committee for Standardization) and ISO. This standard outlines a precise laboratory method to determine the percentage by mass of water-soluble matter in pigments and extenders. The focus on hot extraction ensures consistency and reliability in analyzing materials used widely in paints, coatings, plastics, and construction products.
The procedure described in EN ISO 787-3:2000 is critical for product development, quality control, and regulatory compliance in industries relying on pigments and extenders. It ensures that manufacturers and laboratories can reliably compare results, improving overall product safety and performance.
Key Topics
- Scope: Specifies a general laboratory method for determining the percentage by mass of substances soluble in boiling water from pigment or extender samples.
- Hot Extraction Method: Describes boiling a weighed sample with water, filtering, and measuring the residue left after evaporation and drying to constant mass.
- Applicability: Designed for use with any pigment or extender unless otherwise specified.
- Repeatability: Results are to be expressed to one decimal place and the procedure includes performing duplicate analyses for accuracy.
- Reporting: Requires detailed documentation, including water and filter types, any use of wetting agents, test portion mass, and any deviations from the standard procedure.
- Comparison: EN ISO 787-3 is distinct from EN ISO 787-8, which uses a cold extraction method and can yield different results.
Applications
EN ISO 787-3:2000 is widely applied in industries where pigments and extenders are central materials, including:
- Paints and Coatings Manufacturing: Determining water-soluble content is crucial for formulating stable, high-performance products and meeting regulatory standards.
- Quality Assurance: Assists manufacturers in certifying that pigment and extender raw materials meet specific soluble matter tolerances, impacting color fastness, longevity, and compatibility.
- Research and Development: Laboratories use this method during product design for consistent pigment performance and compliance checks.
- Construction Materials: Ensures additives in mortars, sealants, and plastics do not adversely affect mechanical properties or durability due to excessive water-soluble content.
- Regulatory Compliance: Contributes to safety and environmental reporting as part of wider product testing protocols.
By providing a harmonized method for measuring water-soluble matter, this standard helps companies in the pigment and extender industries meet international trade, specification, and safety requirements.
Related Standards
EN ISO 787-3:2000 is one part of a larger family of international standards focused on the testing of pigments and extenders. Important related standards include:
- EN ISO 787-8:2000: General methods of test for pigments and extenders - Part 8: Determination of matter soluble in water - Cold extraction method.

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.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this part of ISO 787 may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO 787-3 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 35, Paints and varnishes,
Subcommittee SC 2, Pigments and extenders.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 787-3:1979), which has been technically revised.
ISO 787 consists of the following parts, under the general title General methods of test for pigments and extenders:
� Part 1: Comparison of colour of pigments
� Part 2: Determination of matter volatile at 105 °C
� Part 3: Determination of matter soluble in water― Hot extraction method
� Part 4: Determination of acidity or alkalinity of the aqueous extract
