Cold Applied Joint Sealants - Test Methods - Part 9: Function Testing of Joint Sealants
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 14187-9 standard focuses on testing the functionality and performance of joint sealants used in cold climate areas. Specifically, it is designed for sealants used in joints found in roads and airfield pavements.
The standard addresses the need for sealants that can withstand harsh cold weather conditions, where temperatures can drop below -25°C. It also considers joints with significant movement, where the total joint movement can exceed 35%.
The purpose of the standard is to evaluate the effectiveness and durability of cold applied joint sealants under these challenging conditions. It outlines the testing methods and procedures to assess the functionality of the sealants in maintaining their sealing capabilities, even with extreme temperature fluctuations and significant joint movements.
