Building and Civil Engineering Sealants - Determination of Adhesion/Cohesion Properties at Constant Temperature
Also Known As:
The DIN EN ISO 9046 standard describes a method for evaluating the adhesion and cohesion properties of sealants used in joints in building construction. The standard applies to sealants that have predominantly plastic behavior.
The standard provides guidelines for conducting tests to determine the adhesion and cohesion properties of sealants. Adhesion refers to the ability of the sealant to bond to different substrates, while cohesion refers to the internal strength of the sealant. These properties are crucial for ensuring the durability and effectiveness of sealants in construction applications.
The standard specifies the conditions for carrying out the tests, including a constant temperature, which ensures that the results are reliable and consistent. It also provides information on the equipment and apparatus needed for conducting the tests accurately.
