1 Scope This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of the resistance to microwave heating of cookware made of ceramic, glass, glass-ceramic or plastics. It is applicable to articles that are intended for multiple re-use in a microwave oven. It is not applicable to articles, particularly those made from plastics, which are intended to be discarded after one […]

1 Scope This document specifies methods and acceptance criteria for assessing the performance of instruments for measuring thickness using pulse-echo ultrasound. This document covers both direct (digital) reading and waveform display types using single or dual element probes. This document may be used for verifying equipment covered by EN 12668 parts 1 through 3 when used for thickness measurement. 2 […]

1 Scope This European Standard defines the rules for the design of gypsum blocks as specified in EN 12859, assembled with adhesives as specified in EN 12860. Accessory products are also defined in this document. It is applicable to non-loadbearing partition walls and internal insulation of walls in rooms of residential buildings, offices, hospitals, schools etc. and to linings of […]

1 Scope This European Standard specifies a method for the energy assessment of a domestic hot water system comprising an external heating boiler of specified minimum output indirectly heating an unvented (closed) hot water tank of up to 1 500 l. Whilst tanks intended primarily for direct heating are not covered by this European Standard, it does allow the provision […]

1 Scope This European Standard describes a procedure for the determination of the time to failure of a bonded joint,using a specimen which is statically loaded under specified conditions. This method can only be used for comparing adhesives, and the results cannot be used for design purposes. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of […]

1 Scope This European Standard defines a method of specifying delivery condition characteristics for polystyrene (PS) recyclates. It gives the most important characteristics and associated test methods for assessing a single batch of PS recyclates intended for use in the production of semi-finished/finished products. It is intended to support parties involved in the use of recycled PS to agree on […]

1 Scope This European Standard defines a method of specifying delivery conditions for polyethylene (PE) recyclates. It gives the most important characteristics and associated test methods for assessing PE recyclates intended for use in the production of semi-finished/finished products. It is intended to support parties involved in the use of recycled PE to agree on specifications for specific and generic […]

1 Scope This European Standard defines a method of specifying delivery conditions for Polypropylene (PP) recyclates. It gives the most important characteristics and associated test methods for assessing a single batch of PP recyclates intended for use in the production of semi-finished/finished products. It is intended to support parties involved in the use of recycled PP to agree on specifications […]

1 Scope This standard is applicable for internally coated aluminium tubes, mainly used for the packing of pharmaceutical, cosmetic, hygiene, food or other household products. The internal coating is used as a barrier and should avoid any contact between aluminium and the product. This standard defines two alternative methods – copper sulphate and sodium chloride method – to detect the […]
