BS EN ISO 10591 Sealant Adhesion

Mechanical

ISO, BSI, EN

Sealants, Plastics, Chemical

Sealants being certified to the above specification are applied to the materials they are intended to be used on, i.e. mortar, aluminium or glass and left to cure for just short of a month. Some are then subjected to a cycle of dry heat and submerged in room temperature. The sealants on their substrates are then submerged in water for 4 days, dried for a day and then tested.

The testing involves tearing the samples apart while recording the forces and amount the sealant stretches before breaking or pulling off the material it is applied to.

Reviews From Our Happy Clients
We asked 4 Ward Testing to carry out testing on a construction industry material that was not easy to handle , to help us achieve CE Marking approval . The organisation did this without complaint and along with the after service care , we are pleased to use them again for future testing and projects.
