15、d This European Standard has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 189, Geotextiles and geotextile-related products, the Secretariat of which is held by IBN. This European Standard supersedes ENV 12225:1996. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by pub

16、lication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by March 2001, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by March 2001. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement t

17、his European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.Page 3 EN 12225:2000 BSI 11-2000 1 Scope This standard specifies a method for the

18、determination of the microbiological resistance of geotextiles and geotextile-related products by a soil burial test. It does not specify for which products or in which applications the soil burial test is required. NOTE 1: For further reference, see CR ISO 13434. NOTE 2: Experience and exhumation o

19、f geotextiles and geotextile-related products which had performed successfully, in some cases for more than two decades, indicate that geotextiles and geotextile-related products made out of synthetic materials are generally resistant against microbially initiated decay. It can therefore be expected

20、 that most of these products commercially available at the present time will pass the soil burial test successfully and it is probably not necessary to submit them all to this test independent of their function. However, if the requirements for appropriate functioning of the geotextiles and geotexti

21、le-related products demand proof of microbiological resistance or if they are manufactured from newly developed polymers whose resistance is in any doubt, the soil burial test should be performed. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions fr

27、soil dried oven of mass soil dried oven of mass used as soil of mass s w m m w where m wis the mass of water; m sis the mass of solids. 4 Principle The test consists of exposing test specimens to microbially active soil under specified conditions. At the end of the exposure, the test specimens are e

28、valuated visually, both before and after cleaning, and tested by measuring physical properties. These test results are compared with those obtained on unexposed specimens in accordance with EN 12226:2000. 5 Reagents and apparatus 5.1 Test soil The test soil shall contain a variety of micro-organisms

29、. To favour the optimum activity of the entire microbial population, the moisture content of the test soil shall be 60 % of SMC when determined according to method A.2 of prEN ISO/DIS 11721-1:1995. Natural soil collected in the field shall be sieved and all particles greater than 4 mm diameter remov

30、ed. The water content is determined by drying 100 g of the soil in a thin layer at 103 C to 105 C until the mass remains constant to within 1 % (normally 24 h). If the water content of the test soil is too high, dry it in thin layers in the laboratory atmosphere. Do not heat since this might affect

31、the microflora. If necessary use a solution of 1 g ammonium nitrate and 0,2 g dipotassium-hydrogen phosphate per 1 l of water to increase the water content. To establish a constant microbial activity of the test soil, the soil shall be acclimatized prior to the soil burial test. The method consists

32、of a preliminary incubation for at least one month at (97 2) % relative humidity and about 28C for a freshly obtained soil. If the same soil material is used more than once, then for each new test set up half of the old material shall be replaced by fresh soil material in the manner described above.

33、Page 5 EN 12225:2000 BSI 11-2000 NOTE: Good experience has been gained with soil type John Innes No. 2, or with Einheitserde ED 73, a soil which contains 66 % of ashable substances and 0,24 % of nitrogen, the pH-value of the 10 % suspension is 5,2 and the SMC = 185 %. 5.2 Cotton fabric Strips, 100 m

34、m long and 25 mm wide, of a bleached and untreated woven cotton fabric, mass per unit area about 250 g/m 2 , shall be used as a reference to test the biological activity of the soil. NOTE: The following cotton fabrics have proved themselves as suitable: - Einfaserprfgewebe Baumwolle S/465 Nr. 600 46

35、5 001 0015 (available from Loeffler Filtertechnik GmbH, Germany); - Control fabric, defined as follows: cotton American type, good middling; warp: 18,5 tex Z 886 2S 748; weft: 30 tex Z 630 2S 748; plain weave 34 ends/cm by 17 picks/cm, with brown and green threads at 0,5 cm and 1,0 cm intervals so t

36、hat strips with identical numbers of threads can be prepared; mass per unit area 230 g/m 2 ; finish: scoured only (available from British Textile Technology Group, Manchester, UK). 5.3 Microbicides An ethanol - water mixture 70:30 shall be used as a cleaning and disinfectant fluid after the soil bur

37、ial test. 5.4 Containers The size and shape of the containers shall be such that the test specimens can be buried in a 100 mm to 150 mm depth of test soil. The dimensions of the containers should facilitate easy handling and placement in the test environment. If the containers are covered, it is nec

38、essary to provide the covers with ventilation openings for the access of oxygen to the test soil. 6 Specimens Prepare 10 specimens according to EN 12226:2000 for each set of conditions. Store the control specimens at (22 2) C and (65 5) % relative humidity. 7 Test climate A dark environment with adm

39、ission of fresh air and air ventilation controlled at (95 5) % relative humidity and (26 1) C shall be used to maintain the moisture content of the test soil at 60 % of SMC. Ensure that neither drying nor addition of water to the test soil during a test time of several weeks influences the performan

40、ce of the microbes, and that ventilation of the test soil is not prevented.Page 6 EN 12225:2000 BSI 11-2000 8 Procedure 8.1 Biological activity of the soil Bury strips of the cotton fabric described in 5.2 and keep them in the test soil for seven days. After this exposure the tensile strength of the

41、 cotton strips shall be 25 % of the original tensile strength. If this criterion is not met, the soil shall be replaced by a biologically more active soil. The biological activity of the test soil shall be checked during the soil burial test according to 8.2 by adding a cotton strip to the test. On

42、completion of the exposure, this strip shall have been destroyed. NOTE: The biological activity of the soil can be increased by adding well rotted garden compost to the test soil. 8.2 Testing of specimens 8.2.1 Active test For the active test, set up at least two containers for each incubation time.

43、 The duration of the test shall be 16 weeks. Place a minimum of two test specimens and one cotton strip in each of the soil containers. Bury the specimens approximately 100 mm deep and ensure good contact between them and the test soil. The container shall permit free oxygen exchange, and shall ther

44、efore not be closed. 8.2.2 Incubation Place the test containers prepared according to 8.2.1 in an incubator for 16 weeks at the climatic conditions specified under clause 7. NOTE: For index tests, the test duration is 16 weeks. During the development of new geotextiles and geotextile-related product

45、s a prolonged test of 32 weeks may be used. Control the moisture content to 60 % SMC by verifying the mass of the soil in the vessels every four weeks. If necessary, ammonium nitrate-dipotassium hydrogen phosphate solution shall be added. 8.2.3 Cleaning of test specimens Recover the test specimens f

46、rom the soil, strip off the soil, and submerge all specimens, including the control specimens, in an ethanol-water solution (70:30) for 300 s. Then clean the specimens under running water, wipe with absorbent paper and dry for at least 72 h at (20 2)C and (65 5) % RH. 8.2.4 Evaluation tests Determin
