Overview

SIST EN ISO 10545-8:2014 is an international standard developed by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) specifying the method for determining the linear thermal expansion of ceramic tiles. This essential test method defines how to measure the coefficient of linear thermal expansion-an important physical property that indicates how much a ceramic tile expands or contracts when subjected to temperature changes, specifically from ambient temperature up to 100 °C.

This standard ensures consistent, reliable assessment of thermal stability in ceramic tiles, helping manufacturers and users evaluate performance in various temperature conditions. Accurate measurement of thermal expansion contributes to better material selection and application, particularly in construction and design where heat-induced dimensional changes can impact tile durability and installation integrity.

Key Topics

  • Scope: The standard applies to all types of ceramic tiles and provides a uniform test procedure to obtain the coefficient of linear thermal expansion between ambient temperature and 100 °C.

  • Test Principle: Measurement of size changes of two test specimens from a tile during controlled heating at a rate of (5 ± 1) °C/min.

  • Specimen Preparation: Requires cutting two specimens at right angles from the tile’s center, grinding ends flat and parallel without removing glaze from glazed tiles, with minimum dimensions specified to ensure accuracy.

  • Test Apparatus: Includes a thermal expansion measurement device capable of precise heating and length change recording, vernier calipers for dimensional measurement, a drying oven at (110 ± 5) °C, and a desiccator for specimen conditioning.

  • Procedure: Involves drying specimens to constant mass, measuring initial length, heating with temperature increments no greater than 15 °C, and recording length changes continuously.

  • Calculation: Linear thermal expansion coefficient (α) is calculated based on the relative length change over the temperature increase, expressed to the first decimal place in units of 10⁻⁶ /°C.

  • Reporting: Test reports must include identification of the test standard, detailed tile description and sample preparation, and the coefficient values for both specimens.

Applications

  • Quality Control: Manufacturers use SIST EN ISO 10545-8:2014 to verify thermal expansion properties during production, ensuring ceramic tiles meet physical performance criteria.

  • Product Development: Guides formulation and testing for new ceramic tile types to optimize dimensional stability under thermal stress.

  • Building and Construction: Helps architects, engineers, and installers predict and mitigate temperature-related expansion risks, improving installation strategies and long-term durability.

  • Research and Certification: Laboratories and certification bodies utilize this standard to provide accurate documentation of thermal expansion properties in compliance with construction norms and regulations.

Related Standards

SIST EN ISO 10545-8:2014 is part of the comprehensive ISO 10545 series concerning ceramic tiles, which includes:

  • Part 1: Sampling and basis for acceptance
  • Part 2: Determination of dimensions and surface quality
  • Part 3: Water absorption and density measurements
  • Part 4: Modulus of rupture and breaking strength
  • Part 7: Resistance to surface abrasion
  • Part 9: Determination of resistance to thermal shock
  • Part 10: Moisture expansion assessment
  • Part 12: Frost resistance testing
  • Part 13: Chemical resistance determination

Together, these standards provide an extensive framework for evaluating all critical ceramic tile properties affecting performance and suitability for specific environments.
