It was prepared by Subcommittee PRI/72/4, Polyurethane, under the

8、 authority of Technical Committee PRI/72, Rigid cellular materials.SupersessionThis part of BS 4841 supersedes BS 4841-1:1993, which is withdrawn.Information about this documentThis revision has been introduced to specify the requirements needed to ensure fitness for purpose of those PIR and PUR cor

9、ed laminated insulation boards with auto-adhesively or separately bonded flexible and rigid facings used in the insulation of cavity walls in the United Kingdom. The requirements have been written so that products conforming to BS 4841-1 also conform to BS EN 13165:2001 (including amendments 1 and 2

10、) whilst satisfying the specified minimum performance levels of the properties included in the current standard.The insulation boards specified in this standard are particularly suitable for use in wall cavities since their excellent thermal insulation performance enables the thin insulation boards

11、to be attached to the outside of the inner leaf. This provides a mechanism to insulate walls by creating partially filled cavities without destroying the principle function of the cavity which is to prevent rain penetration through the wall to the indoor area of the property. These other parts of th

12、e wall provide the strength, weather and fire resistance characteristics of the insulated wall. As the insulating board is located in the wall in a non-loadbearing position, only its ease of handling during installation plus its integrity for long-term adequate thermal insulation performance need be

13、 considered from a robustness point of view.Additional information for the guidance of users, installers and designers is given in informative Annexes A, B, C and D to this standard. The other parts of BS 4841 have also been revised to reflect recent technical advances and to take into account the E

14、uropean Standard BS EN 13165:2001 (including amendments 1 and 2).Presentational conventionsThe provisions of this standard are presented in roman (i.e. upright) type. Its requirements are presented in sentences in which the principal auxiliary verb is “shall”.Commentary, explanation and general info

15、rmative material is presented in smaller italic type, and does not constitute a normative element.Contractual and legal obligationsThis publication does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users are responsible for its correct application.Compliance with a British Stan

16、dard cannot confer immunity from legal obligations. BSI 2006 1BS 4841-1:20061 ScopeThis British Standard specifies requirements for rigid polyisocyanurate (PIR) and polyurethane (PUR) cored laminated insulation boards with auto-adhesively and separately bonded flexible and/or rigid facings, for use

17、as thermal insulation for wall cavities. It also applies to products with one flexible facing and one rigid facing.NOTE Additional information for the guidance of users, installers and designers is given in informative Annexes A, B, C and D to this standard.2 Normative referencesThe following refere

45、the determination of areas of unbonded facingsA.1 PrincipleThe unbonded area is established by removing loose facing material after cutting up the specimen.A.2 ApparatusA.2.1 Bandsaw or similar fine toothed saw.A.2.2 Means for measuring the dimensions of unbonded area with an accuracy of 0.5 mm e.g.

46、 a rule.A.3 Test specimenThe test specimen should be a right parallelepiped with a length and breadth not exceeding 1200 mm 600 mm. The thickness of the test specimen should be the full thickness of the laminated insulation board including facings.A.4 Number of test specimensOne test specimen should

47、 be tested.A.5 ConditioningTest specimens should be conditioned immediately before testing for a period of not less than 16 h at a temperature of (23 2) C and a relative humidity of (50 5)%.A.6 ProcedureConduct the test at (23 2) C. Mark the test specimen in a manner that identifies the upper and lo

48、wer faces. Cut the test specimen parallel to either axis into strips 50 mm wide, each strip being marked so as to identify its original position relative to the other strips (see Figure A.1). Examine both faces of each strip to determine whether any of the facings are not bonded to the core.Remove a

49、ny areas of facing and measure the unbonded area(s).NOTE 1 The necessity for identifying each individual strip and its relative position is to enable unbonded areas of the facing that might extend continuously across more than one strip to be computed as a single area. Individual areas may therefore be computed as well as the sum total of all such areas.NOTE 2 Felt marker pens are most suitable for marking the edges of the test specimen.A.7 Expression of resultsMeasure all unbonded areas indi
