Standard EN SampleCold Applied Joint Sealants - Test Methods - Determination of Tack Free Time
Also Known As:
BS EN 14187-2:2017 is a European Standard that provides a test method for determining the tack free time of cold applied joint sealants. The standard is applicable to joint sealants used in various applications such as roads, airfields, and other areas subjected to traffic.
The purpose of this standard is to establish a consistent and reliable method for measuring the tack free time, which refers to the time at which the sealant surface is no longer sticky or tacky to touch. This test is important as it helps to determine the point at which the sealant has sufficiently cured and can be subjected to further handling or traffic.
By specifying a test method for tack free time, the standard ensures that manufacturers and users of cold applied joint sealants have a standardized approach for evaluating the curing properties of the sealant. This allows for better quality control and helps to ensure that the sealant will perform as expected when used in various construction projects.
