25、 3 Introduction This Standard is based on ISO/TC 186 work and is concerned only with the performance of silver-plated table and decorative holloware and does not include requirements for design, size or any other characteristics which are matters of personal choice or which can be readily assessed b

26、y the purchaser at point of sale. Attention is drawn to Directives of the European Community concerning materials and articles in contact with food, in particular to Directives EC89/109 and EC90/128. 1 Scope This part of this Standard specifies material, performance requirements and test methods for

27、 silver-plated table and decorative holloware made principally from metals, and intended for use at or upon the dining table. Composition limits are specified for the basic metals for fabrication of the holloware prior to silver-plating. This standard applies to decorative items such as vases and tr

28、ophies and includes such items as jugs, dishes, tea- and coffee-pots, trays and tureens, candlesticks, wine-coolers etc. Requirements are specified for brass, copper, nickel-silver, pewter and stainless steel holloware with a silver-plated coating and for silver-plated cast attachments thereto. The

29、thickness levels of silver coatings are specified as first, second and third class, these deposits can also be protected by lacquer. The standard does not apply to holloware made entirely of precious metals, brass, nickel-silver, pewter, stainless steel or that made from ceramics or glass. 2 Normati

These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of thes

46、propriate surface of each finished item, when measured in accordance with the methods described inAnnex A (mass of coating) andAnnex B (area of coating), of EN ISO8442-2:1997 shall not be less than those given inTable 2. NOTEFor routine quality, control purposes the average thickness can be determin

47、ed by a non-destructive technique such as weighing before and after plating or by a statistically significant number of local thickness measurements provided that the technique adopted can be shown to give equivalent results to the specified method. 5.1.3 Local thickness The minimum local thickness

48、of silver coatings on functional and non-functional surfaces (see Annex A of EN ISO8442-2:1997) shall be not less than 60% of the average thickness deemed to be on the item. Minimum local thickness shall be measured in accordance with one of the methods specified in ISO2177, ISO1463, ISO3543 or ISO3
