Overview

EN 14262:2003 is a CEN (European) standard that specifies the characteristics and test methods for briquetting pitch - a coal-tar and pitch-based binder derived from coal pyrolysis used for industrial briquetting and agglomeration. The standard defines which properties must be determined for briquetting pitch and the standardized test procedures to assess those properties. It supports quality control, product specification, and supplier/customer agreements for different grades of briquetting pitch.

Key topics and requirements

• Scope: Methods of test required to determine the characteristics of briquetting pitch used for industrial purposes. Different grades can be specified depending on application needs.
• Main characteristics addressed:
  • Softening point - important for handling and thermal behavior (typical range: 50 °C to 130 °C per Annex A).
  • Ash content - indicates inorganic residue (typical range: 0.1% to 1%).
  • Water content - affects processing and storage (typical range: 0% to 5%).
• Sampling: Sampling and sample preparation follow ISO 6257 to ensure representative testing of solid briquetting pitch batches.
• Standardized test methods:
  • Water content: ISO 5939 (Dean and Stark azeotropic distillation method)
  • Softening point: DIN 51920 (Mettler softening point)
  • Ash content: ISO 8006
• Classification and terminology: Uses definitions and classification given in EN 13847:2001.

Applications and who uses it

EN 14262 is relevant to organizations involved in the production, testing and procurement of coal tar and pitch based binders:

• Binder and briquetting pitch manufacturers - to define product grades and verify conformity.
• Quality control and testing laboratories - to apply harmonized test methods for acceptance testing.
• Metallurgical and foundry industries - where briquetting pitch is used for agglomeration or as a binder in coke and briquette production.
• Purchasing/specification teams - to write contract requirements and ensure consistent material performance.
• Standards bodies and regulators - to harmonize safety, performance and trade practices across Europe.

Related standards

• EN 13847:2001 - Terminology and classification for coal tar and pitch based binders
• ISO 6257 - Sampling of briquetting pitch
• ISO 5939 - Determination of water content (Dean and Stark method)
• ISO 8006 - Determination of ash content
• DIN 51920 - Mettler softening point determination

EN 14262:2003 provides a concise, harmonized framework for assessing briquetting pitch properties and supports consistent product quality and specification across industrial users and suppliers.
