Adapted from EN 923.4 SafetyPersons using this standard shall familiar with normal laboratory practice.This standard does not purport to address all the safety problems, if any, associated with its use.It is the responsibility of the user to establish safety and health practices and to ensure compliance with anyEuropean or national regulatory conditions.5 Climatic conditionsCasein adhesives are suitable for use at temperatures not exceeding 50 C and under climatic conditions of use,equivalent to 85 % relative humidity at 20 C, that result in a moisture content in softwoods and most hardwoods of20 %, and somewhat lower in wood-based panels.SIST EN 12436:2002

The adhesive shall be supplied in the form of a dry powder, of which a minimum of 50 % shall be casein.When prepared with water only, in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, it shall yield a homogenousliquid, free from grit, and of a consistency suitable for spreading.6.1.2
The adhesive powder shall contain a preservative in an amount which has been proved to protect againstmould contamination when tested in accordance with annex B.6.1.3
All adhesives shall be tested by the shear test (see 6.2) using bonded test specimens made from beech.Preparation and testing of the bonded test specimens shall be carried out in accordance with EN 302-1.If the adhesive is specifically claimed to be suitable for use with particular hardwood species, it shall also be testedon bonded test specimens made from that or those species.6.2 Resistance to shear forcesThe shear failing load of close contact and gap joints after the three conditioning treatments specified in annex Ashall be tested in accordance with EN 302-1 except that the test report shall be as given in clause 7 of thisstandard.a) Joints made with beechwoodThe strength of joints shall be as given in Table 1.Table 1 — Minimum failing loads for close contact joints (0,1 mm) and gap joints (1 mm ± 0,1 mm) onbeechwoodTreatment(see annex A)Minimum failing loadNClose contact jointsGap jointsA.12 0001 600A.21 2001 000A.31 6001 300b) Joints made on other hardwood speciesIf the adhesive is tested on other hardwood species (see 6.1.3) with a density not exceeding 750 kg/m3, thestrength of joints shall be as given in Table 1.SIST EN 12436:2002
