Film preservation test methods

Coating type - binder Polymer dispersion Silicate Silicon resin 

To design accelerated microbiological laboratory test methods a standard scheme can be summarized from the variety of standard methods and in-house methods applied in the testing laboratories in industry, aeademie, or institutional testing laboratories, respectively. 

The main purpose on the surface while drying is an eradication of hyphae, already penetrated into the substrate, and superficial left overs from the mechanical cleaning. After complete drying, a penetrating primer can be applied if necessary, then the surface should be finished with a hydrophobic renovating paint containing a carefully chosen film preservative. 

Cleaned EIFS - surfaces should be over-painted with silicon paints containing a broad spectrum film preservative.

Evaluating antimicrobial treatments of other materials is less easy than checking the preservation of aqueous functional fluids. Help is available, however, from institutes and microbicide suppliers that routinely use a number of standard methods for specific materials, such as plastics, wood, paint films and textiles. The same applies to the testing of disinfectants. The final test, however, is one under practical conditions, which may vary very much according to the place and region and which cannot always be simulated in the laboratory.
