EN 438-4:2005

High-pressure decorative laminates (HPL) - Sheets based on thermosetting resins (Usually called Laminates) - Part 4: Classification and specifications for Compact laminates of thickness 2 mm and greater.

This Part of EN 438 specifies performance requirements for two types of Compact laminate (defined in Clause 4) of thickness 2 mm or greater intended for interior use.
High-pressure decorative Compact laminates are characterised by their aesthetic qualities, strength, durability and functional performance. Compact HPL sheets are available in a wide variety of colours, patterns and surface finishes; they are extremely strong, and resistant to wear, impact, scratching, moisture, heat and staining; and possess good hygienic and anti-static properties, being easy to clean and maintain.
prEN 438-2 specifies the methods of test relevant to this part of EN 438.

Dekorative Hochdruck-Schichtpressstoffplatten (HPL) - Platten auf Basis härtbarer Harze (Schichtpressstoffe) - Teil 4: Klassifizierung und Spezifikationen für Kompakt-Schichtpressstoffe mit einer Dicke von 2 mm und größer

Dieser Teil von prEN 438 legt die Leistungsanforderungen für zwei Kompakt-Schichtpressstofftypen (beide in Abschnitt 4 definiert) mit einer Dicke von 2 mm oder größer fest, die für die Innenanwendung vorgesehen sind.
Die dekorativen Hochdruck-Kompakt-Schichtpressstoffe sind charakterisiert durch ihre ästhetische Beschaffenheit, ihre Festigkeit, Dauergebrauchstauglichkeit und Beanspruchungsfähigkeit. Kompakt-Schichtpressstoffe sind in einer Vielzahl von Farben, Dekoren und Oberflächenausführungen verfügbar; sie sind äußerst robust und widerstandsfähig gegen Abrieb, Stoß, Verkratzen, Feuchtigkeit, Wärme und Fleckenbildung; sie besitzen gute hygienische und antistatische Eigenschaften und sind leicht zu reinigen und zu pflegen.
Die für diesen Teil von prEN 438 zutreffenden Prüfverfahren sind in prEN 438-2 festgelegt.

Stratifiés décoratifs haute pression (HPL) - Plaques à base de résines thermodurcissables (communément appelées stratifiés) - Partie 4 : Classification et spécifications des stratifiés compacts d'épaisseur égale ou supérieure à 2 mm

La présente partie de l'EN 438 spécifie les exigences de performance de deux types de stratifiés compacts (définis à l'article 4) destinés à être utilisés à l'intérieur.
Les stratifiés décoratifs haute pression compacts se caractérisent par leurs qualités esthétiques, leur résistance, leur durabilité et leur performance fonctionnelle. Les stratifiés HPL compacts sont disponibles dans une grande diversité de couleurs, motifs et finitions de surface ; ils sont extrêmement robustes et résistants à l'usure, au choc, à la rayure, à l'humidité, à la chaleur et aux taches et possèdent de bonnes caractéristiques hygiéniques et anti-statiques, tout en étant faciles à nettoyer et à entretenir.
Cette partie de l'EN 438 s'applique exclusivement aux stratifiés compacts définis au paragraphe 3. L'EN 438, Partie 2, prescrit les méthodes d'essai correspondant à la présente partie de l'EN 438.
