Resilient floor coverings — Determination of dimensional
stability and curling after exposure to heat
1 Scope
This document specifies a method for determining dimensional stability and curling of resilient floor
coverings, in the form of sheets, tiles or planks after exposure to heat.
2 Normative references
There are no normative references in this document.
3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
ISO and IEC maintain terminology databases for use in standardization at the following addresses:
— ISO Online browsing platform: available at https:// www .iso .org/ obp
— IEC Electropedia: available at http:// www .electropedia .org/
3.1
dimensional stability
ability of a resilient floor covering to retain its original dimensions after exposure to heat, under
specified conditions
3.2
curling
vertical deformation appearing on the specimen after exposure to a heat treatment, under specified
conditions
3.3
domed material
area of specimen that does not lie flat against support plate when centred
4 Principle
4.1 Dimensional stability
The relative change in distance between marks or a specific location on a test specimen is measured
before and after exposure to a heat treatment, under specified conditions. In the case of tiles and planks,
measurements may be made using a block and dial gauge assembly.
4.2 Curling
The vertical deformations are measured in the test specimen after the specified heat treatment.
Test specimens are placed in an oven at an elevated temperature, after which curling and dimensional
stability are determined. In the case of domed material or where material exhibits negative curling,
turn the test specimen over to measure inverted or with the back of the sample facing up. Measure
curling and mark appropriately as negative curling.
ISO 23999:2021(E)
5 Apparatus
5.1 Oven
The oven shall be thermostatically controlled and ventilated, capable of being maintained at a uniform
temperature of 80 °C ± 2 °C. If a temperature setting other than 80 °C is utilized, mark the test sheet as
appropriate and verify the oven’s capability to maintain a uniform temperature set point.
In operation, ensure that radiation from the heating element does not directly reach the test specimens
or support plates.
5.2 Support plates
The support plates shall be of metal, e.g. aluminium or stainless steel, of dimensions larger than the test
specimen and not less than 1,5 mm in thickness. Ensure that the support plates are kept smooth and
polished so that surface friction does not interfere with free shrinkage or growth of the test specimens.
The plates shall be flat and free of convex or concave distortion and fully support the sample (e.g. a wire
rack support plate is not acceptable.).
The shapes and dimensions of the apparatus specified in 5.1 and 5.2 shall be such that:
a) curling can be measured without removing the test specimens from the support plates, except in
the case of domed material or where material exhibits negative curling;
b) the distance between the plates and the vertical walls of the oven shall be more than 50 mm;
c) the vertical distance between the support plates and between the plates and the oven shall be more
than 100 mm.
5.3 Measuring device
5.3.1 Measuring equipment
The measuring equipment for sheet, tile and plank products, shall preferably be an optical bench for
non-contact dimensional stability measurements or block and dial gauge apparatus, see examples
shown in Figure 2, Figure 3 and Figure 4. The equipment shall have a range of at least 200 mm and a
precision of ± 0,02 mm. For many types of optical benches, ensure that
