11 Modification to 4.3.15, Continuous glowing combustion
Replace the current title of the clause with: "Propensity to undergo continuous smouldering".
Replace the text in the clause with the following:
"When declared the propensity to undergo continuous smouldering of expanded cork shall be tested
according to EN 16733. The following conditions and parameters shall be considered within the tests:
— density according to EN 1602;
— thickness to be determined by test according EN 823.
The test is intended for naked core products. Any facings or coatings are removed when preparing the
test specimen
The tests shall be done without consideration of the intended end-use conditions. If the paragraph 6.2.5
of EN 16733 applies, a permanent contact between the pieces shall be assured.
The results of tests considering the aforementioned parameters in fully are also valid for products:
— with equal or lower density up to a tested density of 115 kg/m³;
— if tested density is higher than 115 kg/m³, can be applicable to lower density if additionally tested
with a density of 100 kg/m³ (± 15 %);
— with lower thickness and also with higher thickness when 100 mm thick specimens were tested;
— with any facings or coatings or suchlike;
— for any end-use conditions.
If the test according to Clause 11 of EN 16733:2016 has been passed, declare: “the product does not
show propensity for continuous smouldering combustion”. If the test according to Clause 11 of
EN 16733:2016 has been failed, declare: “the product shows propensity for continuous smouldering
combustion”. If the assessment was not possible according to Clause 11 of EN 16733:2016, declare:
“assessment of the propensity for continuous smouldering combustion is not possible”.
If a Designation code is given, the following abbreviations shall be used:
— the product does not show propensity for continuous smouldering combustion: NoS
— the product shows propensity for continuous smouldering combustion: S
— the assessment of the propensity for continuous smouldering combustion is not possible: ANP".
