PD CEN/TS 16969:2016 CEN/TS 16969:2016 (E) 4 1 Scope This Technical Specification specifies a test method to evaluate the ability of coating materials to seal the end grain of wood against ingress of water. This procedure is relevant
17、 for joinery or wood based cladding materials whose service life can depend on the control of water penetration through the coated end-grain. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

20、r vapour SOURCE: EN 927-5:2006, 3.1 3.2 water permeability ability of a coating system to allow the transmission of water as liquid or vapour SOURCE: EN 927-1:2013, 3.13 3.3 stable mass mass achieved when the difference between two subsequent weighings within 24 h does not exceed 0,2 % SOURCE: EN 92
21、7-5:2006, 3.3 3.4 end grain sealer system applied on the end grain 4 Principle Water permeability is assessed by measuring the water uptake over a 72 h period of coated test pieces exposed to liquid water. The coating under test is applied to the end grain surface of a defined test piece where the r
22、emaining sides are carefully sealed using a sealer of a defined mandatory low water PD CEN/TS 16969:2016 CEN/TS 16969:2016 (E) 5 permeability. Results are expressed as water absorption of coated wood samples in grams per square meter test surface per 72 h. 5 Sample preparation 5.1 Wood The wood shal
23、l be spruce (Picea abies) that has been selected to be free from knots and cracks, to be straight-grained and of normal growth rate (i.e. between 3 and 8 annual rings per 10 mm). The wood shall be free from blue stain and evidence of surface or bulk infection. Abnormal porosity (caused by bacterial
24、attack) shall be avoided. Abnormally porous wood can be detected qualitatively by the rapid absorption of a drop of propan-2-ol (isopropanol) applied to the surface; the drop should not be absorbed in less than 30 s by normal wood. The test should be carried out at not less than six places, widely s
25、eparated on the rear face of the test sample. The density of the wood shall be between 0,4 g/cm 3and 0,5 g/cm 3when measured at an equilibrium moisture content of approximately 12 %. The measured density shall be recorded. Condition the wood prior to conversion into test samples at (20 2) C and a re
26、lative humidity of (65 5) %. Convert the conditioned wood into samples (45 2) mm (45 2) mm (150 2) mm in size. The samples shall be planed all round to a smooth and uniform finish. The end grain shall be cut with a sharp circular saw to obtain a smooth surface without visible defects from cutting. A
27、ny samples showing surface splitting shall be rejected. The longitudinal edges shall be rounded with 3 mm radius. For illustration, see Figure 1. Key a = (150 2) mm b = (45 2) mm c = (45 2) mm Figure 1 Size of test samples PD CEN/TS 16969:2016 CEN/TS 16969:2016 (E) 6 5.2 Preparation of coated sample
28、s and sealed controls 5.2.1 Wood conditioning Prior to coating, condition the samples to constant mass at (20 2) C and a relative humidity of (65 5) %. Samples shall be weighed at intervals of not less than one day until they have reached a stable mass (see 3.3). 5.2.2 Sample selection Select five s
29、amples for each of the coatings to be tested. Select also five samples for testing the sealer product; this set of samples will serve as sealed controls. 5.2.3 Coating application Coating systems shall be applied according to the manufacturers specifications. Apply each test coating system to one en
30、d grain surface only. Record applied quantity of each coating layer by weighing the samples before and after coating application. 5.2.4 Sealing and conditioning Samples shall be sealed in the same way whether they are applied for test coatings or control of sealer. Seal all sides and the uncoated en
31、d-grain of the samples against water entry using at least two coats of a flexible moisture-impermeable coating, for example a solvent-free epoxy or polyurethane paint. The liquid water permeability of the sealer tested according to EN 927-5 shall not exceed 30 g/m 2in 72 h. The sealer shall cover th
32、e edges completely and overlap the test face by 2 mm (see Figure 2). Apply the sealer to the uncoated end grain so many times that a closed and uniform film is obtained.

34、all the samples under test. 6.3 Balance, capable of weighing to the nearest 0,01 g. 7 Procedure 7.1 Pre-Conditioning After coating application, sealing and drying of coating materials the samples shall be stored in controlled environment (see 6.1) at (20 2) C and a relative humidity of (65 5) %, unt
35、il a stable mass is achieved. NOTE Usually 28 days is used as a suitable time period for drying and curing. 7.2 Absorption cycle Weigh the test samples to the nearest 0,01 g and record the initial mass (m 0). Fill the container (6.2) with deionized water and place it in the conditioning room (6.1).
36、The water shall have reached stable temperature in the conditioned room, i.e. (20 2) C. Immerse the test samples with the coated end grain surface under test down into the water ensuring that the whole of the test face is fully wetted. Use a sample holder and load the samples with weight to ensure t
37、hat the test surfaces are (10 3) mm under the water surface. After 72 h remove the test samples from the water, blot lightly to remove any water droplets and weigh. Record the elapsed time and mass (m 1). All handling of the samples shall be carried out in the conditioning room (6.1). An example for
38、 the test set up see Figure 3. Key 1 Samples with end grain sealer under test facing downwards 2 water 3 grid to ensure full wetting of test face Figure 3 Example for test set up PD CEN/TS 16969:2016 CEN/TS 16969:2016 (E) 8 7.3 Optional testing of weathered samples If required, end grain sealers may
39、 be subjected to a weathering test before or after measurement of liquid water permeability. 8 Calculation and expression of results At the end of the test, calculate the water uptake m 1 m 0, in grams for the five coated samples with the end grain sealer under test and the five sealed control sampl
40、es. Calculate the water absorption per square metre of test surface for the five coated samples with the end grain sealer under test and the five sealed control samples by dividing the water uptake by the nominal test area of each of the five test samples. From the five values for the water absorpti
41、on mean value and standard deviation shall be stated in the test report. 9 Test report The test report shall contain at least the following information: a) all details necessary to identify the product tested; b) a reference to this Technical Specification; c) the name and address of the testing lab
42、oratory; d) the identification number of the test report; e) the name and address of the organization or the person who ordered the test; f) the mean water absorption value and standard deviation for the coated and the sealed control samples, as indicated in Clause 8; g) the density of the wood used
43、 for the test samples; h) the applied amount of coating materials under test; i) any deviation from the test method specified; j) the authorization date of the test report.
