17、itish Standards Institution 20141 ScopeThis section of BS 6920 describes the preparation of test samples of all types ofnon-metallic (including cementitious) materials and products, including waterfittings and components, pipes and materials used in coating, protection, lining,jointing, sealing and

18、lubrication, for their suitability for use in contact withwater intended for human consumption, with regard to their effect on thequality of the water.This standard does not cover metallic materials and products, unless they will beused in conjunction with a non-metallic material, e.g. coating.NOTE

19、Under the relevant National Regulations 1 to 7 , the National Regulatormay specify additional provisions in some cases and will assess the significance of theresults obtained.2 Normative referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in thisdocument and are indisp

37、olic resins, some polyurethanes and epoxy resins.3.8 curecuring in relation to materials refers to the change (usually irreversible) in boththe chemistry and physical properties of the material. For most materials this canbe as a result of cross-linking of polymer chains (brought about by a chemical

38、reaction), radiation (e.g. UV light and/or heat). For cementitious materials theprocess of cure is different. With the exception of radiation mediated cures, formost materials curing is temperature and duration dependentNOTE Many products that change into their final form suitable for use in contact

39、with water do so by means of solvent loss (organic or water), i.e. drying, not curing,e.g. solvent cements and many one-part coatings.
