15、013 (E) 3 Foreword This document (CEN/TS 16499:2013) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 139 “Paints and varnishes”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN and/or C
16、ENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Remark about climatic conditions: EN 23270, Paints and varnishes and their raw materials Temperatures and humidity for conditioning and testing (ISO 3270) prescribe the use of standard conditions 23/50 (23 2) C and (
17、50 5) % relative humidity. Historically for wooden substrates there are a lot of mechanical properties which refer to the alternative standard conditions 20/65 (20 2) C and (65 5) % relative humidity according to ISO 554, Standard atmospheres for conditioning and/or testing Specifications. Therefore
18、, the use of standard conditions 20/65 instead of standard conditions 23/50 could be arranged but should be noted. According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to announce this Technical Specification: Austria, Belgium,
19、Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland

PD CEN/TS 16499:2013CEN/TS 16499:2013 (E) 4 1 Scope This Technical Specification specifies a test method for determining, under standard conditions, whether a single-coat film or a multi-coat system of paints and varnishes on wood after a specified drying period is s
21、ufficiently dry to avoid damage when two painted surfaces or one painted surface and another surface are placed in contact under pressure and subsequently separated. The method is intended to simulate the conditions when painted articles come into contact which each other. In comparison to EN ISO 91
22、17-2, the conditioning and parameters which influences the behaviour of wood coatings are more specific. NOTE In some countries, the test is called a “block or blocking resistance” test. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document
23、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.

26、 has been coated, when they are left in contact under load after a given drying period SOURCE: EN ISO 4618:2006; 2.29 Note 1 to entry: Blocking does not apply to bonding of coated surfaces after insufficient drying. Note 2 to entry: In practice, blocking can occur if coated wood panels are stacked o
27、n each other or on windows and doors if the frames are in direct contact with the faces. Blocking depends on temperature and load (pressure). Note 3 to entry: The term blocking is also sometimes used to describe agglomerated caked powder. Note 4 to entry: Unwanted adhesion can lead to damage upon se
28、paration. 3.2 load mass needed to achieve a suitable test pressure PD CEN/TS 16499:2013CEN/TS 16499:2013 (E) 5 Note 1 to entry: High temperature and humidity increase the challenge at a given load. The application method, film thickness, drying conditions and climatic conditions should also be taken
29、 into account. 3.3 after tack property of a film to remain sticky after normal drying or curing SOURCE: EN ISO 4618:2006; 2.8 Note 1 to entry: The term after tack can also mean a subjectively stickiness of the surface (“finger tack” or “surface tack”). This effect however might not necessarily be re
30、lated to blocking. 3.4 stable mass mass achieved when the difference between two subsequent weighings within 24 h does not exceed 0,2 % SOURCE: EN 927-5:2006; 3.3 3.5 stackability resistance to damage due to unwanted adhesion between adjacent surfaces of articles that develops when these articles ar
31、e left in contact SOURCE: EN ISO 9117-2:2010; 3.1 4 Principle The coating material or the coating system under test is applied on test panels or cut strips under specified conditions. After specified drying time and under specified climatic conditions, the two test panels or cut stripes are placed c
32、rosswise in contact with each other. This assembly is subsequently placed in a test apparatus to be subjected to a specified load under specified climatic conditions. After a specified period of time, the load is removed and the test panels manually separated under specific climatic conditions and t
33、he contact areas examined for any damage to the coating in the area of contact. 5 Apparatus 5.1 Weights, of a mass which correspond to the requirements of 12.1. 5.2 Oven or conditioning chamber, depending on the selected climatic conditions during load (see Clause 11 or 12.3): Oven of appropriate si

If the coating delaminates from the substrate before or during the test, another, more suitable substrate should be used. 5.3.2 Film applicator, preferably a
