13、been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 217 “Surfaces for sports areas”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by April 2005, and conflicting na
14、tional standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by April 2005. It is one of two standards for procedures for ageing surfaces for sports areas. The other standard in this series has the following title: EN 13744, Surfaces for sports areas Procedures for accelerated ageing by immersion in hot water
15、According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Li

EN 13817:2004 (E) 4 1 Scope This document describes a procedure for subjecting test pieces taken from surfaces for sports areas to accelerated ageing by exposure to h
17、ot air in the laboratory. Test pieces are aged to permit a comparison of their physical characteristics before and after ageing in accordance with European Standard test methods for surfaces for sports areas. This method is suitable for ageing all types of sports surfaces, except for wooden surfaces
18、, using test pieces in the laboratory, but is primarily intended for ageing polymeric surfaces. The procedure allows a measure of the effect on the physical characteristics of the sports surface due to exposure to hot air to be made. NOTE Results on materials which exhibit temporary changes in prope
19、rties due to drying should be interpreted with caution. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (inclu
20、ding any amendments) applies. ISO 188:1998, Rubber, vulcanized or thermoplastic Accelerated ageing and heat resistance tests 3 Principle Test pieces are exposed to air at an elevated temperature to permit selected physical characteristics of the surface to be assessed before and after test. 4 Appara
21、tus 4.1 Air circulating oven, as described in ISO 188:1998, 3.2.2. 5 Test pieces Select, prepare and condition the test piece(s) in accordance with the appropriate method of test. Test pieces shall be such that no mechanical, chemical or heat treatment will be required after their removal from the o
22、ven. Any material used for marking test pieces shall not be applied in any critical area of the test piece and shall not damage the surface or be destroyed during ageing. NOTE Wherever possible, marking should be carried out after ageing of the test piece. 6 Procedure Place the test pieces in the ov
23、en (4.1) after it has been pre-heated to a temperature of (70 2) C. The test pieces shall be stationary, free from strain and freely exposed to air on all sides and not exposed to light. Leave the test pieces in the oven for (336 2) h. EN 13817:2004 (E) 5 Remove the test pieces from the oven and con
24、dition them together with an un-aged sample for not less than 16 h and for no more than 6 d in a relaxed condition in accordance with the test method for the particular characteristic being assessed. NOTE Simultaneous ageing of different test pieces in the same oven should be avoided, to prevent mig
25、ration of anti- degradants or plasticizers, etc. 7 Comparison tests To compare properties before and after accelerated ageing, carry out tests on un-aged test pieces at the same time and under the same conditions as those on test pieces having been subjected to accelerated ageing. Only compare test
26、pieces of similar dimensions and having approximately the same exposed areas. 8 Calculation and expression of results Calculate the results as specified by the appropriate method of test. If required, calculate the percentage change in the property using the following expression: 100 = O O A C where
27、 C is the percentage change in the property; A is the aged value of the property, e.g. % impact absorption; O is the un-aged value of the property. 9 Test report The test report shall include the following: a) reference to this document, i.e. EN 13817:2004; b) reference to the procedure used to sele
28、ct the test pieces and determine their characteristics, e.g. a European Standard test method; c) complete identification of the surface tested including manufacturers reference, type and depth of supporting layers, and method of attachment and previous history; d) physical characteristics determined
29、, with their values before and after ageing, and, if required, their percentage change, calculated in accordance with Clause 8; e) individual test results, if required.
