CEN/TC 249/WG 15 develops CEN standards in the area of Information technology. The scope of work includes: 1) to develop proposals for NWIs along the lines of documents CEN/TC 249 N428 & 429 2) 2) to revise/confirm/complete existing standards on composites and reinforcements. Currently, there are 5 published standards from this working group.
The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is a public standards organization that brings together the national standardization bodies of 34 European countries. CEN provides a platform for developing European Standards (ENs) and other technical documents in relation to various products, materials, services, and processes, supporting the European Single Market.
A Working Group in CEN is a specialized group responsible for developing standards or technical work within a defined scope. These bodies bring together international experts to create consensus-based standards that support global trade, safety, and interoperability.
This European Standard specifies the minimum information to be declared for resins, curing systems, additives and modifiers to be used for the manufacturing of composites products.
These specific declaration requirements are in addition to the general requirements given in EN 16245-1.
This document includes requirements for the Certificate of Analysis (CoA). The purpose of the CoA is to verify that material properties and quality conforms to the declared values.
