DIN EN 14617-6:2012-06 EN 14617-6:2012 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a method to assess possible modifications of agglomerated stones under the effect of sudden changes in temperature (thermal shock) by immersion in hot water. 2 Normative refe
23、rences The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.
24、EN 14617-2:2008, Agglomerated stone Test methods Part 2: Determination of flexural strength (bending) 3 Symbols For the purposes of this document, the following symbols apply. m0mass of the dried specimen before the test, in g; mfmass of the dried specimen after the test, in g; m % change in the mas
25、s of the dried specimens, as a percentage; Rf flexural strength average value of dried, reference specimens, in MPa; Rsf flexural strength average value of specimens after 20 cycles, in MPa; Rf, 20coefficient of thermal shock resistance as change in flexural strength (as a percentage after 20 cycles
26、). 4 Principle After drying at (40 5) C until constant mass is attained, the specimens are subjected to successive cycles, each formed by thermal shock at (70 5) C followed by immediate immersion in water at (15 5) C. After 20 cycles, the specimens are visually inspected and compared with the refere
27、nce specimen, and all visible alterations recorded. Finally, the mass and flexural strength changes of specimens after 20 cycles will be determined in comparison with the values of the same quantities of reference specimens. NOTE The selected test temperature of 70 C is for flooring and wall applica
28、tions. 5 Apparatus 5.1 A ventilated oven capable of maintaining a temperature of (70 5) C. 5.2 A tank equipped with a cooling system capable of maintaining a temperature of (15 5) C and a flat base comprising small non-oxidising and non-absorbent supports for the specimens. 5.3 A weighing instrument
29、 with an accuracy of at least 0,01 % of the mass to be weighed. 5.4 A desiccator. DIN EN 14617-6:2012-06 EN 14617-6:2012 (E) 5 5.5 Demineralised water. 5.6 A linear measuring device with an accuracy of 0,5 mm (for the flexural measurement). 6 Preparation of specimen 6.1 Sampling Sampling is not the
30、responsibility of the test laboratory except where specially requested. Two sets of at least 7 test specimens which are considered representative of the body of agglomerated stone being tested shall be selected from a homogeneous batch. One specimen set is used as a control: both the mass and flexur
31、al strength according to EN 14617-2 are determined before the thermal shock test. For the other specimen set, both the mass and flexural strength according to EN 14617-2 shall be determined after the thermal shock cycles. The specimens should be carefully observed and all alterations, such as cracks
32、, holes, etc., noticed before and after the thermal shock cycles 6.2 Dimensions of the test specimens The test specimens shall be randomly selected from a homogeneous batch, having surface finish, dimension and tolerances according to EN 14617-2:2008, 6.2.2. 6.3 Drying the specimens The specimens sh
33、all be conditioned at room temperature (20 5) C for (24 2) h. For agglomerated stones with cement or cement and polymer as binder, the specimens shall be dried at (40 5) C to a constant mass. Constant mass is reached when the difference between two weighings carried out (24 2) h apart is no greater
34、than 0,1 % of the first of the two masses. After drying and prior to testing, the specimens shall be stored at (20 5) C. Once thermal equilibrium is reached, the test shall be performed within 24 h. 7 Procedure 7.1 Control measurements before cycling The dried specimens shall be visually inspected a
35、nd compared to the reference specimen. All alterations, such as cracks, holes, etc., shall be recorded. Then, their mass (m0) shall be measured and the flexural strength determined according to EN 14617-2. This is to be regarded as the initial value (Rf). 7.2 Specification of the cycles The dried sp
36、ecimens shall be subjected to changes of temperature according to the following procedure: (18 1) h in a ventilated oven at (70 5) C, followed immediately by (6 0,5) h completely submerged in distilled or demineralised water with a temperature of (15 5) C. Both in the oven and in the water container
37、, the specimens shall be placed on the supports at a distance of at least 50 mm from one another and from the wall. DIN EN 14617-6:2012-06 EN 14617-6:2012 (E) 6 In the water container, the specimens shall be placed on supports located at the bottom of the container which has been filled with distill
38、ed or demineralised water to such a height that the water level above the specimens is (60 10) mm. The procedure described above which constitutes one cycle shall be repeated for 20 cycles. 7.3 Control measurements after cycling After the 20thcycle, the specimens shall be dried to constant mass at (
39、40 5) C according to 6.3 and weighed (mf). They shall then be visually inspected and compared to the reference specimen. All alterations shall be recorded. Finally, the mass (mf) shall be measured and the flexural strength (Rsf) determined according to EN 14617-2. 8 Expression of results For each sp
40、ecimen: 8.1 Describe the modifications observed visually by comparison with the reference specimen, such as: change of colour, appearance of spots; swelling; cracking; scaling or exfoliation. 8.2 Calculate the change in mass for each sample and then calculate the mean value to the nearest 0,01 % acc
41、ording to the following formula: 1000f0=mmmm%(1) 8.3 Calculate the change in flexural strength for each sample and then calculate the mean value to the nearest 0,1 % according to the following formula: 100%fsfff,20=RRRR(2) 9 Test report The test report shall contain the following information: a) uni
