It does not apply to leather and textile surfaces. The test is intended

20、 to be carried out on a part of the finished furniture, but can be carried out on test panels of the same material, finished in an identical manner to the finished product, and of a size sufficient to meet the requirements of the test. The test should be carried out on unused surfaces. !deleted text

After a specified test period, the block an

26、d damp cloth are removed and the test surface is left for 16 h to 24 h. Thereafter, the test surface is cleaned and examined for damages such as discolouration, change in gloss, change in colour, blistering and swelling. The test result is stated in a numerical rating code. 5 Apparatus and materials

31、ty between 8,5 kg/m3 and 11,5 kg/m3; heat conductivity, less than 0,035 W/mK. The foam shall withstand at a temperature higher than 200 C. 5.8 Diffuse light source Light source providing evenly diffused light, giving an illumination on the test surface of (1200 400) lx. This may either be diffused d

32、aylight or be diffused artificial daylight. BS EN 12721:2009+A1:2013 EN 12721:2009+A1:2013 (E)7 NOTE The daylight should be unaffected by surrounding trees, etc. When artificial daylight is used it is recommended that it should have a correlated colour temperature of (6500 50) K and an Ragreater tha

33、n 92, by using a colour matching booth in accordance with EN ISO 3668:2001. 16 Preparation and conditioning 6.1 Conditioning Conditioning of test surface shall begin at least one week before testing and shall be carried out in air at a temperature of (23 2) C and relative humidity of (50 5)%. The co

34、nditioning time shall be stated in the test report. 6.2 Test surface The test surface shall be substantially flat and with a size sufficient to meet the requirements of Clause 7. 7 Test procedure 7.1 Testing Immediately after conditioning, the test shall be carried out in a test atmosphere of (23 2)

35、 C. The test surface shall be placed horizontally. It shall accommodate the required number of tests, with at least 15 mm spacing between the perimeter of adjacent test surfaces, and between the perimeters of the test surfaces and the edges of the panel. Where tests are carried out simultaneously, t

36、he perimeters of the test surfaces shall be separated by a minimum of 50 mm. If there is any reason to suppose that the properties of the test surface may vary, two identical tests shall be carried out simultaneously. The test surface shall be lightly wiped with a cleaning cloth (5.4) before the tes

37、ting. Using the oven (5.3), raise the temperature of the heat source to a temperature higher than the specified test temperature, and transfer it to the heat insulating foam (5.7). Place the thermometer (5.1) or other means of measuring temperature in the centre bore of the heat source (5.2). If the

38、 temperature is not higher than the specified test temperature, the heat source shall be placed again in the oven until achieving this higher temperature. Place the white polyamide fibre cloth (5.5) centrally on the test surface. Spread (2 0,2) cm3of distilled or deionized water (5.6) uniformly over

39、 the whole area of the white polyamide fibre cloth. NOTE A graduated eye dropper is suitable for dispensing the distilled or deionised water. When the heat source reaches the specified test temperature with an accuracy of 1 C, immediately place it on the centre of the white polyamide fibre cloth. Af

40、ter 20 min in this position, remove the block. Wipe the test surface dry with the cleaning cloth (5.4) when it has cooled. Record the position of each test surface and its temperature. Allow the test surface to stand undisturbed from 16 h to 24 h. Wipe each test surface with the cleaning cloth (5.4)

41、 and examine the test panel.

42、ight source (5.8), for damage, e. g. discoloration, change in gloss and colour, blistering, swelling and other defects. For this purpose illuminate the surface separately and examine from different angles, directions and planes, including angle combinations such that the light is reflected from the

43、test surface and towards the observers eye. Viewing distance shall be 0,25 m to 1,0 m. Changes caused by the test shall also be determined by touching the surface. 9 Assessment of results Rate the test surfaces by comparing the test area with the area surrounding it according to Table 1: Table 1 Des
