Wood preservatives - Determination of the protective effectiveness against wood destroying basidiomycetes - Application by surface treatment
This European Standard specifies a method of test for the determination of the protective effectiveness of a wood preservative, applied to the surface of the wood, against wood destroying basidiomycetes cultured on an agar medium.
The method is applicable to all products which are to be applied by superficial application processes. This includes:
- organic solvent-based wood preservatives; or
- organic water-dispersible formulations, as supplied or as prepared in the laboratory by dilution of concentrates; or
- water-soluble products; or
- chemicals which are being studied as active ingredients for application by superficial processes.
This method may be used in conjunction with an ageing procedure, for example EN 73.
Holzschutzmittel - Bestimmung der vorbeugenden Wirksamkeit gegen Holz zerstörende Basidiomyceten - Anwendung mit Oberflächenverfahren
Diese Europäische Norm legt ein Prüfverfahren zur Bestimmung der vorbeugenden Wirksamkeit eines auf die Holzoberfläche aufgebrachten Holzschutzmittels gegen auf einem Agarmedium gezüchtete Holz zerstörende Basidiomyceten fest.
Das Verfahren ist auf alle Produkte anwendbar, die für die Anwendung mit Oberflächenverfahren bestimmt sind. Dazu gehören:
- Holzschutzmittel auf der Grundlage organischer Lösemittel; oder
- wasserdispergierbare organische Formulierungen im Anlieferungszustand oder in der Form, in der sie im Laboratorium durch Verdünnung von Konzentraten hergestellt werden; oder
- wasserlösliche Produkte; oder
- Chemikalien, die als Wirkstoffe für die Anwendung mit Oberflächenverfahren untersucht werden.
Dieses Verfahren kann in Verbindung mit einer Alterungsbeanspruchung, z. B nach EN 73, angewendet werden.
Produits de préservation du bois - Détermination de l'efficacité protectrice vis-à-vis des champignons basidiomycètes lignivores - Application par traitement de surface
La présente Norme européenne spécifie une méthode d’essai de la détermination de l’efficacité protectrice d’un produit de préservation du bois, appliqué par un traitement de surface, vis à vis des champignons basidiomycètes lignivores cultivés sur milieu gélosé.
Cette méthode est applicable à tous les produits destinés à être appliqués par des procédés par application superficielle. Cela comprend :
- les produits de préservation du bois solubles dans les solvants organiques ; ou
- des émulsions telles qu’elles sont livrées ou préparées en laboratoire à partir de concentrés ; ou
- des produits hydrosolubles ; ou
- des produits chimiques étudiés en tant que matières actives pour l’application par des procédés de surface.
Cette méthode peut être utilisée conjointement à une épreuve de vieillissement, par exemple celle décrite dans l’EN 73.
Zaščitna sredstva za les - Ugotavljanje preventivne učinkovitosti proti glivam odprtotrosnicam - Površinsko nanašanje
Ta evropski standard določa preskusno metodo za ugotavljanje preventivne učinkovitosti zaščitnega sredstva za les, ki se nanese na površino lesa, proti glivam odprtotrosnicam, ki so gojene na agarskem gojišču.
Metoda se uporablja za vse izdelke, ki se nanesejo s postopkom površinskega nanašanja. Sem spadajo:
– organska zaščitna sredstva za les na osnovi topil,
– organske formulacije, ki dispergirajo v vodi in so dobavljene ali pripravljene v laboratoriju z redčenjem koncentratov,
– proizvodi, topni v vodi, ali
– kemikalije, ki se preučujejo kot aktivne sestavine za uporabo pri površinskem nanašanju.
OPOMBA Ta metoda se lahko uporablja v povezavi s postopkom staranja, na primer EN 73.

In comparison with the previous version of the document, EN 839:2014 has been revised editorially.
This document includes annexes; Annex A, Annex C, Annex D and Annex E are informative and Annex B is
normative.
According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following

Introduction
This European Standard specifies a laboratory method of test which gives a basis for assessing the
effectiveness of a wood preservative, when applied as a surface treatment, against wood destroying
basidiomycetes. It tests whether the applied treatment is able to prevent the penetration of the fungi into the
untreated interior of the test specimens under the conditions of test.
This laboratory method provides one criterion by which the effectiveness of a product can be assessed. In
making this assessment, the methods by which the preservative may be applied should be taken into account.
It is also recommended that results from this test should be supplemented by those from other relevant tests
and above all by practical experience.
The procedures described in this European Standard method are intended to be carried out by suitably trained
and/or supervised specialists.
Suitable precautions should include the use of separate rooms, areas within rooms, extraction facilities,
conditioning chambers and special training for personnel. Also see Annex E for environmental, health and
safety precautions.

4 Principle
Several series of test specimens of a susceptible wood species are end-sealed with a material to prevent
