Resilient Floor Coverings - Determination of the Dimensional Stability of Linoleum Tiles Caused by Changes in Atmospheric Humidity
Also Known As:
A thorough process for assessing the dimensional stability of linoleum tiles in response to variations in atmospheric humidity is provided by the DIN EN 669 standard. This standard's objective is to evaluate how effectively linoleum tiles retain their original dimensions under various humidity conditions. This is a crucial component to take into account because variations in humidity may cause the tiles to expand or contract, which could result in problems like buckling or gaps.
The equipment requirements and test procedures are specified in the standard for carrying out the evaluation. It outlines a sequential procedure that includes prepping the tiles, measuring their dimensions, putting them through controlled humidity fluctuations, and then measuring them again. The degree of dimensional stability is calculated from the difference between the dimensions before and after exposure to humidity variations.
