M/103 REV - Thermal Insulation Products

This draft European Standard specifies the requirements for factory made calcium silicate products with or without lamination or coating which are used for the thermal insulation of buildings.
Calcium silicate products have also the capability to regulate air moisture in building rooms, which means to absorb moisture from the air and opposite to give the moisture back to the room due to the capillarity of the product.
Calcium silicate insulation material comprising hydrated calcium silicate, normally reinforced by incorporated fibres. The main crystal phases are Xonotlite, Tobermorite with or without Wollastonite.
The products are manufactured in the form of boards, segments and prefabricated ware.
This draft European Standard describes product characteristics and includes procedures for testing, evaluation of conformity, marking and labelling.
This draft European Standard does not specify the required level or class of a given property that shall be achieved by a product to demonstrate fitness for purpose in a particular application. The levels required for a given application can be found in regulations and invitations to tender.

This International Standard specifies the equipment and procedures for determining the long term water absorption of test specimens. It is applicable to thermal insulating products.
This International Standard specifies two options:
- Method 1 - partial immersion
- Method 2 - total immersion
The long term water absorption by partial immersion is intended to simulate the water absorption caused by long term water exposure.
The long term water absorption by total immersion is not directly related to the conditions on site, but has been recognized as a relevant condition of test for some products in some applications.

This International Standard specifies the equipment and procedures for determining the short-term water absorption of specimens by partial immersion. It is applicable to thermal insulating products.
NOTE It is intended to simulate the water absorption caused by a 24 h raining period during construction work.

This International Standard specifies the equipment and procedures for determining the long term water absorption of test specimens by diffusion. It is applicable to thermal insulating products. It is intended to simulate the water absorption of products subjected to high relative humidities, approximating to 100 %, on both sides and subjected to a water vapour pressure gradient for a long period of time e.g. inverted roof or unprotected ground insulation.
The test is not applicable for all types of thermal insulating products. The product standard should state for which of its products, if any, this test is applicable.
NOTE For unprotected ground insulation the temperature of 50 °C may be replaced by a lower temperature, when more data is available.

This European standard specifies the requirements for factory made composite products to be used for
thermal insulation of buildings, such as composite insulation products with at least two different thermal
insulation layers and with or without facings or coatings, and composite products with thermal insulation
layer/s bonded to additional external layer/s of non-insulation products.
Products defined by standards EN 13162 to 13171 and prEN 16069 shall be used for the thermal insulation
layers. If a product other than those defined in above standards is used as one of the thermal insulation
layers, then its properties declared for the composite shall be assessed according to test methods and
principles in above mentioned standards.
This standard does not cover the performance of prefabricated systems incorporating these composite
products.
This standard specifies product characteristics and includes procedures for testing, evaluation of conformity,
marking and labelling.
This standard does not specify the required level of a given property to be achieved by a product to
demonstrate fitness for purpose in a particular application. The levels required for a given application are to be
found in regulations or non-conflicting standards.
Self-supporting building products and products for structural use are not covered by this standard.
This standard does not cover in-situ composite insulation products, composite products for civil engineering
applications and composite products intended to be used for thermal insulation of building equipment and
industrial installations.
