BS EN 12472:2005+A1:2009EN 12472:2005+A1:2009 (E) 4 Introduction The wear of objects in contact with the skin depends very much on the type and shape of the objects and the activities of the person c

19、oncerned. This procedure attempts to simulate the wear and corrosion on a coated article during two years of normal use. By its nature this is a pragmatic solution to the problems posed by the evaluation of coated items in contact with the skin, which may be subject to several kinds and varying degr

20、ees of wear. In order to show compliance with Directive 94/27/EC, items should be tested in accordance with the appropriate European harmonised standard(s), the references of which have been published by the European Commission in the Official Journal of the European Communities. Currently, these ar

21、e EN 1810, EN 1811 and this European Standard. BS EN 12472:2005+A1:2009EN 12472:2005+A1:2009 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a method for accelerated wear and corrosion, to be used prior to the detection of nickel release from coated items that come into direct and prolonged contact w

22、ith the skin. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this European Standard. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN

23、1811, Reference test method for release of nickel from products intended to come into direct and prolonged contact with the skin 3 Principle The items to be tested are exposed to a corrosive atmosphere before being placed into a tumbling barrel together with a wear medium of abrasive paste and granu

24、les. The barrel is rotated so as to subject the test pieces to wear from the wear medium. The items are then tested for nickel release in accordance with EN 1811. 4 Reagents and materials Except where indicated, all reagents and materials that can come into contact with samples or reagents shall be

25、demonstrably free of nickel, and all reagents shall be of recognized analytical grade or better. 4.1 Corrosion 4.1.1 Container Container with a lid and a device for suspending the test pieces, all parts made of inert material (e.g. glass or plastic).

29、 come into contact with each other during tumbling; retaining assembly, with items attached, shall be inserted into the barrel for tumbling. NOTE Examples are given in Annex A of retaining assemblies suitable for attaching typical items. BS EN 12472:2005+A1:2009EN 12472:2005+A1:2009 (E) 7 Dimensions

34、 weight, ground and sieved to give a mixture of particles having dimensions between 0,8 mm and 1,3 mm. NOTE Information on sourcing suitable granules is available from the CEN Management Centre. 4.2.5 Wear medium The medium is composed of abrasive paste (4.2.3) and granules (4.2.4) which are mixed a

35、s indicated in 5.3.1. 5 Procedure 5.1 Sample preparation Before being subjected to the corrosion (5.2) and wear (5.3) procedures, different parts of some items may need to be separated from each other. NOTE 1 Parts of items which are not intended to come into prolonged contact with the skin may be r

36、emoved before being subjected to corrosion and/or wear. Gently swirl the sample(s) for 2 min in a degreasing solution (4.1.3) at room temperature. Rinse thoroughly with de-ionized water (4.1.4) and gently dry with absorbent paper. After degreasing, samples should be handled with plastic forceps or c

37、lean protective gloves. NOTE 2 This cleaning stage is intended to remove extraneous grease and skin secretions due to handling, but not any protective coatings. 5.2 Corrosion procedure If applicable, the items to be tested shall first be opened to reveal critical surfaces. The items are suspended a

38、few centimetres above the corrosive medium (4.1.2) in a closed container (4.1.1) and placed in the laboratory oven (4.1.5) for 2 h at 50 C. Remove the container from the oven and carefully open it under a fume hood. Rinse the items with de-ionized water (4.1.4). Place on absorbent paper and allow to

39、 dry at room temperature for about 1 h, then perform the wear procedure (5.3) without delay. NOTE This stage is intended to affect metallic coatings, as well as lacquers and plastic coatings. 5.3 Wear procedure 5.3.1 Preparation of wear medium !Weigh a sufficient quantity of granules in order to fil

40、l the tumbling barrel to half its depth. Take 7,5 g of abrasive paste for every kg of the total amount of granules. Using appropriate personal protective equipment and protective gloves, add the abrasive paste to about 10% of the weighed granules and thoroughly homogenize by hand until there is no a

41、brasive paste visible. Add the remaining weighed granules, and continue to homogenize the complete mixture by rotating it in the tumbling barrel for 5 h. If the wear medium has not been used within 1 week, re-homogenise by rotating it in the barrel for 1 h.“ NOTE This procedure coats the granules wi

42、th the abrasive paste, forming the wear medium that is used to simulate wear. Keep the wear medium in a closed container until use and between uses. BS EN 12472:2005+A1:2009EN 12472:2005+A1:2009 (E) 9 !After 2 wear procedures, add 7,5 g more abrasive paste for every kg of granules. Re-homogenise the

43、 wear medium by hand, using protective gloves, until there is no abrasive paste visible and rotate it in the barrel for a further 5 h.“ After a total of 4 wear procedures, discard the wear medium and prepare fresh material. 5.3.2 Attachment of test items Items shall be attached inside the retaining

44、assembly so that they cannot come into contact with each other, or collide with the barrel walls or other parts that could cause damage during tumbling. NOTE Annex A gives examples of how typical items are attached. 5.3.3 Tumbling Place the retaining assembly with the mounted items into the empty tu

45、mbling barrel, then fill the barrel to half its depth with the wear medium (4.2.5). Close the tumbling barrel and place it horizontally on the rotating system (4.2.2). Rotate the tumbling barrel at a speed of (30 2) rotations per minute for a total of 5 h 5 min. The direction of the rotation shall b

46、e reversed after 2,5 h 5 min. NOTE It is permissible to leave the items in the barrel overnight. 5.4 Determination of nickel release Remove the retaining assembly from the barrel and detach the items. Gently wipe off any remaining wear medium using a soft cloth or paper tissues. Check the items for

47、unexpected damage, e.g. stone(s) missing from broach. If necessary and justified, rectify damage or exclude item(s) from further testing. Test the items for nickel release in accordance with EN 1811. NOTE If only indicative information on the extent of nickel release is required, such information ca

48、n be obtained by performing one of the tests specified in CR 12471. 6 Test report In addition to the information required by EN 1811, the test report shall contain the following particulars: a) reference to this European Standard, i.e. EN 12472:2005; b) if appropriate, a description of removed or op

49、ened parts and method of mounting; c) details of any deviations from this standard method, if relevant; d) any unusual feature(s) observed during the test.
