Overview

EN 12280-2:2002 - "Rubber- or plastic-coated fabrics - Accelerated ageing tests - Part 2: Physical ageing: effect of light or weathering" is a CEN standard that specifies a method to determine the effects of light or weathering accelerated ageing on the physical properties of coated fabrics. The standard addresses accelerated simulation of outdoor/light exposure to evaluate changes in mechanical and physical behaviour. Colour fastness to light or weathering is explicitly excluded.

Key topics and requirements

  • Scope and principle
    • Applies to rubber- or plastic-coated fabrics to assess physical ageing caused by light or weathering.
    • Uses accelerated exposure methods to reproduce service conditions more rapidly.
  • Reference test methods
    • Exposure is performed in accordance with EN ISO 105-B02 (artificial light: xenon arc) or EN ISO 105-B04 (artificial weathering: xenon arc).
    • Conditioning and testing atmosphere follow EN ISO 2231.
  • Test specimens
    • Sampling from undamaged areas within the usable width and full length per EN ISO 2286-1.
    • Minimum specimen size: 145 × 75 mm (thickness per product).
    • Minimum number: at least three specimens before and after ageing; follow the test-specific standard where applicable.
    • Condition exposed specimens for at least 24 hours before testing.
  • Apparatus and conditions
    • Use xenon-arc or agreed weathering apparatus conforming to EN ISO 105-B02/B04.
    • Black panel temperature typically between 45 °C and 60 °C.
    • Exposure duration is to be agreed between parties or defined in contract/specification.
  • Expression of results and reporting
    • Report changes as absolute variation or percentage change, or versus a specified acceptance value.
    • Test report must include reference to EN 12280-2, date, conditioning atmosphere, product ID, exposure conditions (including black panel temperature), exposure period, appearance after exposure, specimen counts, measured properties before/after exposure, and any deviations.

Practical applications and users

  • Useful for manufacturers of coated fabrics, R&D teams, and quality control laboratories assessing durability to light and weathering.
  • Helps procurement/specification writers and testing bodies define performance criteria for awnings, tarpaulins, automotive interiors, membrane structures, and other coated textile products exposed to sunlight and weather.
  • Employed in product development, acceptance testing, failure analysis, and comparative performance studies.

Related standards
