Page 4EN 12961:20011 ScopeThis European Standard specifies the
23、determination of optimum heat activation temperatures and maximumactivation life of solvent-based or dispersion adhesives coated onto adherends, primarily based on therequirements for sole attaching adhesives. Optimum heat activation temperatures and maximum heatactivation life depend mainly on the
24、type, composition and colour of the adhesive as well as the footwearmaterial used.2 Normative referencesThis European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications.These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publication

29、isfactory strength with a proportion of non-coalescence of less than 10 %.3.2maximum activation lifelongest time interval, beginning with adhesive application, at the end of which, compared to bonds obtainedafter drying without storing, heat activation at an optimum activation temperature produces b
30、onds of lessthan 10 % reduction in peel strength with non-coalescence of less than 10 %.4 PrincipleThe surfaces of the upper and the sole materials used for testing are treated specifically to the type ofmaterial. Strips of specified size and form are cut from the treated materials and coated with t
31、he adhesiveunder test. The coats applied are dried for a specified period of time under specified conditions.Page 5EN 12961:2001For determination of the optimum activation temperatures, coats on sole material strips are heat activated tovarious surface temperatures at intervals of 10 C from 50 C to
32、90 C, unless otherwise specified, andimmediately assembled with dried but not activated coats on strips cut from upper material. The test piecesproduced are stored for a specified time under specified conditions before their strength is determined in apeel test in accordance with EN 1392.For determi
33、nation of the maximum activation life, coats on sole material strips are dried and heat activated,after various specified time intervals, to a determined optimum activation temperature and immediatelyassembled with dried but not activated coats on strips cut from upper material. The test pieces obta
34、ined arestored for a specified time under specified conditions before their strength is determined in a peel test inaccordance with EN 1392.5 SafetyPersons using this standard shall be familiar with normal laboratory practice.This standard does not purport to address all the safety problems, if any,
35、 associated with its use.It is the responsibility of the user to establish safety and health practices and to ensure compliance with anyEuropean and national regulatory conditions.6 Adhesive and materials6.1 AdhesiveIdentify the adhesive under test in the test report, in particular note name and/or
36、designation, manufacturer,date of manufacture and/or supply and/or lot number, main polymer and colour. For two part adhesivesidentify the nature of the cross-linking agent and the mixing ratio of the components.6.2 MaterialsUse the footwear material the use of which is intended or specified (e.g. f
37、or bonding in a footwear productionline) or a reference test footwear material in accordance with EN 522 representing a group of footwearmaterials based on a defined polymer (e.g. for research and development purposes).If reference footwear test material(s) in accordance with EN 522 are used, make a
38、 reference to it (them) inthe test report.Identify the footwear material(s) used for testing. Record name and/or designation, manufacturer, date ofmanufacture and/or supply, type of upper and of soling material. For leathers list colour, thickness and typeof tannage (if known), for rubber and plasti
39、c materials, colour, polymer base and shore-hardness inaccordance with ISO 868. Include this identification of the material in the test report.7 ApparatusApparatus described in EN 1392 is required with the following considerations.7.1 Heat activator, infra-red activator for heating quickly adhesive
40、coats to the required temperature.7.2 Equipment for measurement of temperature, a non-contact temperature measurement device formeasuring quickly the temperature of activated adhesive coats.8 Test pieces8.1 Preparation of materialCondition all upper and soling materials to an equilibrium state in th
41、e standard atmosphere 23/50 inaccordance with ISO 554.Page 6EN 12961:20018.2 Preparation of bonding surfacesProceed as described in EN 1392.8.3 Form of material strips and test piecesProceed as specified in EN 1392 for a peel test at (23 Gb1 2) C.8.4 Cutting of material stripsProceed as described in
42、 EN 1392.8.5 Number of material strips and test pieces8.5.1 For determination of the optimum activation temperatures prepare at least 10 strips of upper and10 strips of soling material for the preparation of 10 test pieces (5 for preliminary and 5 for final testing). Inaddition, prepare at least 5 s
43、trips for measuring the time which the heat activator requires to heat thesurfaces of an adhesive coat on the soling material to a temperature specified in 9.1.2.8.5.2 For determination of the maximum activation life of one component adhesives prepare at least17 strips of upper and 17 strips of soli
44、ng material for the preparation of 17 test pieces (12 for preliminary and5 for final testing). For determination of the maximum activation life of two components adhesives prepare atleast 10 strips of upper and 10 strips of soling material for the preparation of 10 test pieces (5 for preliminaryand
45、5 for final testing).8.6 Preparation of the adhesiveTake a significant sample of the adhesive to be tested in accordance with EN 1066 and examine andprepare it in accordance with EN 1067.Proceed as described in EN 1392.Unless otherwise specified, and so recorded in the test report, allow a two compo
46、nents adhesive to maturefor (30 5) min after mixing.8.7 Application of the adhesiveProceed as described in EN 1392.9 Procedure9.1 Determination of the optimum activation temperatures9.1.1 Apply the adhesive (8.7) on the prepared (8.2) surfaces of upper and the soling material and allow thecoats, unl
47、ess otherwise specified and so recorded in the test report, to dry for (30 5) min at a controlledtemperature of (23 5) C and a relative humidity of less than 70 %, while allowing free evaporation ofsolvents.9.1.2 Using spare strips coated with the adhesive under test determine the time which the hea
48、t activator (7.1)requires to heat the surfaces of an adhesive coat on the soling material to a temperature of 50 C, 60 C,70 C, 80 C, and 90 C. The time required by the heat activator to reach 90 C shall not exceed 15 s. Formeasuring the temperature of activated adhesive coats use the non-contact tem
49、perature measurementdevices (7.2). Record the time required for each temperature.Page 7 EN 12961:2001 9.1.3 Activate the adhesive coat on one strip of the soling material to 50 C, assemble the activated coat immediately with a dried but unactivated coat on a strip of the upper material and start pressing the test piece. Carry out all operations from the end of activation to attainment of maximum pressure within 10 s. Proceed for pressing the test pieces in accordance with EN 1392. After pressing store the test pieces
