Overview
EN 14188-4:2009 - "Joint fillers and sealants - Part 4: Specifications for primers to be used with joint sealants" (CEN) defines material characterisation and conformity procedures for primers used with hot and cold applied joint sealants. It covers primers for use on roads, airfields and other concrete pavements, and also primers for joint sealants in bituminous surfacing and at interfaces between bituminous surfacing and adjacent concrete pavements.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Primer types: bitumen-based for hot applied sealants (PBH) and resin-based primers for hot (PRH) and cold applied sealants (PRC‑o one-component, PRC‑m multi‑component).
- Essential properties and test methods (with referenced EN/ISO standards):
- Homogeneity (EN 15466‑1) - primer must be homogeneous after homogenisation.
- Density (EN ISO 2811‑2) - results must lie within the manufacturer’s declared value (MDV) tolerance (±5%).
- Viscosity / flow (EN ISO 2431) - MDV tolerance ±15%.
- Resistance against alkali (EN 15466‑2) - primer shall be “resistant”.
- Evaporation behaviour of volatiles and solid content (EN 15466‑3) - MDV tolerances specified (volatiles ±5%, solids −2% / +5%).
- Flash point (EN ISO 2719) - MDV tolerance −5 °C / +5 °C.
- Softening point for bitumen‑based primers after solvent extraction (EN 12697‑3 and EN 1427); not applicable for resin primers.
- Dangerous substances - manufacturer must ensure compliance with national health/environment rules.
- Conformity assessment:
- Initial Type Testing for all Clause 5 characteristics.
- Further type testing after significant changes to product, raw materials or process.
- Factory Production Control (FPC) - documented system (EN ISO 9001 accepted), equipment calibration, inspection, testing frequencies and record keeping.
- Marking and packaging: containers must be indelibly labelled with manufacturer, primer type, batch, expiry, compatible sealant types, use/storage/disposal directions and statutory hazard labelling.
Applications and users
- Practical use: specifying and verifying primers used to improve adhesion and performance of joint sealants in highways, airport pavements, bridges, car parks and other concrete/bituminous pavement joints.
- Primary users:
- Manufacturers of primers and joint sealants (product development, FPC).
- Contractors and specifiers (material selection, procurement, installation guidance).
- Testing laboratories (type testing, compliance checks).
- Asset owners and authorities (technical specifications, quality assurance).
Related standards
- EN 14188-1 (hot applied sealants), EN 14188-2 (cold applied sealants), EN 14188-3 (preformed joint seals)
- Test standards referenced within EN 14188-4: EN 15466 parts 1–3, EN ISO 2719, EN ISO 2811-2, EN ISO 2431, EN 12697‑3, EN 1427, EN ISO 9001
This standard is essential where consistent primer performance, safety labelling and documented factory control are required to ensure durable joint sealant systems in road and airfield pavement applications.
