M/113_AM1 - Wood based panels

This part of ISO 12460 specifies a desiccator method for the determination of the quantity of formaldehyde
emitted from particleboard, fibreboard, plywood, oriented strand board (OSB), and wooden laminated flooring.

ISO 12460-4:2016 specifies a desiccator method for the determination of the quantity of formaldehyde emitted from particleboard, fibreboard, plywood, oriented strand board (OSB) and wooden laminated flooring.

This document specifies an extraction method called the perforator method, to determine the formaldehyde content of unlaminated and uncoated wood-based panels.

ISO 12460-5:2015 specifies an extraction method known as the "perforator method". It is used for the determination of the formaldehyde content of unlaminated and uncoated wood-based panels.

This European Standard defines and gives the specifications for normal hardening hydraulic road binders, produced in a factory and supplied ready for treatment of materials for bases, sub-bases and capping layers as well as earthworks, in road, railway, airport and other types of infrastructures.
It includes the mechanical, physical and chemical requirements and the classification of these binders based on their compressive strength at 56 days. It also includes the conformity criteria and evaluation procedures to be applied by the manufacturer.

This document specifies characteristics for compact laminate panels and HPL composite panels both for non-structural uses in interior or external wall and ceiling finish applications (including in suspended ceiling).
This document deals with compact laminate panels of thickness 2 mm and greater.
The compact laminate panels are produced by using a high pressure process and the HPL composite panels are produced bonding an HPL sheet to a substrate.
This document covers compact laminate panels with the following types of laminates:
-   compact laminates, as defined in EN 438 4:2016;
-   exterior-grade compact laminates, as defined in EN 438 6:2016;
-   pearlescent compact laminates, metal compact laminates and wood veneer compact laminates, as defined in EN 438 8:2018;
-   coloured core layer compact laminates and metal reinforced core layer compact laminates, as defined in EN 438 9:2017.
This document covers full size and cut-to-size compact laminate panels and HPL composite panels, e.g. tiles and sidings.
This document specifies only compact laminate panels and HPL composite panels mechanically fixed using e. g. screws or rivets.
Both the compact laminate panels and HPL composite panels may contain flame retardant to improve their reaction to fire performance.
This document also specifies provisions for the assessment and verification of constancy of performance (AVCP) of the characteristics and includes provisions for marking these panels.
This document does not cover:
a)   HPL sheets less than 2 mm thick as defined in EN 438-3:2016, EN 438-8:2018 or EN 438-9:2017, which are not glued on a substrate;
b)   overlaid or veneered wood-based panels, where the overlay/veneer is not an HPL;
c)   HPL composite panels intended for use as floor coverings;
d)   panels used for fire protection of walls or ceilings;
e)   performances of installed systems for walls and ceilings with compact or composite high pressure laminate panels.

This European Standard specifies a procedure for determination of accelerated formaldehyde release from wood-based panels using the gas analysis method. The procedure is also suitable for the testing of other materials (e.g. edge bands, floor coverings, foams, foils, laminated wood products).
