Resilient Floor Coverings - Determination of Dimensional Stability and Curling After Exposure to Heat
Also Known As:
The purpose of the DIN EN ISO 23999 standard is to quantify the dimensional stability and curling of heat-sensitive resilient floor coverings. The standard outlines procedures for testing different types of floor coverings, such as sheets, tiles, and planks.
The standard's goal is to determine whether floor coverings can maintain their original dimensions and avoid warping or curling when exposed to heat. This is a crucial quality for resilient floor coverings because heat exposure can cause distortion and associated dangers.
The procedure for carrying out the tests, including sample preparation and heat exposure parameters, is laid out in the standard. The test results offer useful knowledge regarding the functionality and longevity of the floor coverings, enabling users to decide whether they are appropriate for a certain application.
