A completely revised standard was published in 2003. The main areas of the
27、current revision have been listed in Annex C. The main reason for drafting the EN 448:2009 is the aligning with EN 13941 and with other relevant recent European standards. For information on the minimum expected thermal life with operation at various temperatures with respect to PUR foam performance
