Overview

EN 17114:2018 (CEN) defines the information to be included in technical and chemical data sheets for water repellent products used in the conservation of cultural heritage. Its purpose is to enable a preliminary, informed selection of the most suitable surface protection products for porous inorganic materials (natural stone, mortar, brick, ceramics, plaster, etc.). The standard focuses on reporting the chemical/physical makeup, application guidance, storage, and performance data required on product technical data sheets.

Key topics and technical requirements

The standard specifies the data that manufacturers or distributors should provide in a technical data sheet, including:

  • Product identification

    • Trade name, manufacturer, distributor, declared primary function (hydrophobic) and any additional functions (consolidating, anti‑graffiti, biocidal, etc.).
  • Chemical and physical properties

    • Physical state (solution, suspension, emulsion, liquid, solid), colour, turbidity, density, viscosity, pH, wettability, expiry/ready‑to‑use status.
    • Composition of active ingredients (CAS number, molecular weight, concentration ±5 %, particle/micelle size).
    • Solvent and additive identification (CAS numbers and fractions), impurities and degree of purity.
  • Properties of the dry product

    • Curing conditions (time, temperature, relative humidity), dry mass fraction, glass transition temperature (if polymeric), thermal expansion coefficient, average molecular weight, soluble fraction (gel content).
  • Use and application

    • Instructions for use, dilution and agitation requirements, recommended application methods (brush, spray, wrap) and product amounts per m2 depending on porosity.
    • Application conditions: temperature range, relative humidity, material water content (as % saturation), and storage/shelf‑life information.
  • Performance reporting

    • Laboratory test results (performed according to EN 16581 and related test standards) including test lab name/date, substrate lithotypes (origin, porosity, pore size distribution), specimen details, applied mass (kg/m2), and ageing/irradiation parameters (EN 17036).
    • Measured performance parameters before/after treatment and after ageing: capillary absorption curves and coefficient (AC), water vapour permeability (p), drying rate (D), and low‑pressure water absorption (Wt).
  • Health & safety

    • Recommendation to consult safety data sheets; the standard notes potential health and environmental hazards of some substances.

Applications and intended users

EN 17114:2018 is aimed at:

  • Manufacturers and formulators preparing compliant technical data sheets for water repellents.
  • Conservation professionals and heritage managers selecting suitable surface protection products for stone, mortar, brick, and other porous inorganic materials.
  • Testing laboratories reporting performance data in a standardized format.
  • Procurement officers and specifiers who require documented evidence of product properties and expected performance.
