The invention relates to a method for providing a coating composition-related prediction program, the method comprising:

Qualitative or quantitative characterization of a coating surface

The invention relates to a laboratory system including at least one laboratory device which is designed to analyse and/or synthesise a chemical substance; at least one laboratory software module which is designed to process data obtained from the at least one laboratory device; a data processing device with control software that provides an interface for operating the at least one laboratory device and/or the at least one laboratory software module; and a portable device with a microphone, wherein the device is connected interoperably to the control software via a network, wherein the device is designed, in interoperation with the control software, to allow a user to operate the at least one laboratory device and/or the at least one laboratory software module without manual intervention, by speaking into the microphone.

Laboratory system with portable microphone device

A method for qualitative and/or quantitative characterization of a coating surface is provided, comprising:

A method for detecting a phase separation of a waterborne or solvent-borne or solvent-free coating composition includes providing the coating composition in a receptacle; providing a measurement instrument for receiving the receptacle, the measurement instrument including a measurement probe; controlling the measurement instrument to a) displace the measurement probe through the coating composition along a predefined measurement path with a predefined speed profile, the predefined measurement path extending along a length axis of the receptacle, b) acquire a force-displacement profile by measuring a force exercised on the measurement probe while the probe is being displaced along the predefined measurement path with the predefined speed profile; processing the force-displacement profile for detecting at least one phase separation of the coating composition; and outputting a detection result.
