Wärmedämmstoffe für das Bauwesen - Bestimmung des Verhaltens bei Frost-Tau-Wechselbeanspruchung
Diese Europäische Norm legt Prüfeinrichtungen und Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Auswirkungen von zyklisch aufeinanderfolgenden trockenen Umgebungsbedingungen bei 20 °C und feuchten Umgebungsbedingungen bei 20 °C auf die mechanischen Eigenschaften und den Feuchtegehalt eines Produkts fest. Sie gilt für Wärmedämmstoffe.
Das Prüfverfahren simuliert das Verhalten bei Frost Tau Wechseln von Wärmedämmstoffen, die häufig Wasser und niedrigen Temperaturen ausgesetzt werden, wie z. B. im „Umkehrdach“ und bei der ungeschützten Wärmedämmung zum Erdreich.
Dieses Prüfverfahren ist nicht für alle Wärmedämmstoffe geeignet. In den Produktnormen wird daher festgelegt, für welche der in ihnen beschriebenen Produkte diese Norm anzuwenden ist.

La norme SIST EN 12091:2013, intitulée "Produits isolants thermiques pour applications dans le bâtiment - Détermination de la résistance au gel-dégel", se distingue par son approche méthodique pour évaluer la durabilité des produits isolants thermiques face aux conditions extrêmes de gel et de dégel. Son champ d'application, qui se concentre sur la détermination des effets du cyclage successif entre des conditions sèches à -20 °C et des conditions humides à 20 °C, le rend particulièrement pertinent pour les produits exposés à des situations d'humidité et de faible température, tels que les toitures inversées et l'isolation au sol non protégée. Parmi les points forts de cette norme, on note l'établissement d'équipements et de procédures standardisés, garantissant des résultats fiables et reproductibles dans le temps. Cela permet aux fabricants de certifier la résistance de leurs produits, élément essentiel dans le secteur de la construction, où la performance thermique et la résistance aux agressions environnementales sont primordiales. La pertinence de la norme SIST EN 12091:2013 réside également dans son alinéa indiquant qu'elle n'est pas appropriée pour tous les produits isolants thermiques. Cela souligne l'importance d'une approche ciblée dans l'évaluation des produits, évitant les malentendus et garantissant que seules les applications appropriées soient testées. De plus, cette norme renseigne clairement les exigences nécessaires pour les produits auxquels elle s'applique, permettant ainsi une meilleure transparence et compréhension pour les acteurs du bâtiment. En conclusion, la norme SIST EN 12091:2013 s'avère être un outil essentiel pour garantir la qualité et la fiabilité des produits isolants thermiques face aux défis imposés par le gel et le dégel, renforçant ainsi son rôle dans l'architecture moderne durable.
SIST EN 12091:2013は、建築用途の断熱材に関する重要な標準規格であり、凍結融解抵抗の評価を行うための方法を示しています。この標準の範囲は、-20°Cから20°Cの条件下での乾燥状態と湿潤状態を繰り返すことによる断熱材の機械的特性と水分含量への影響を測定するための機器と手順を具体的に示しています。 この標準の強みは、凍結融解効果をシミュレートするために設計されており、特に水や低温環境に頻繁にさらされる断熱材、たとえば逆勾配屋根や保護されていない地面の断熱材に関連している点です。これにより、実際の使用条件における製品の耐久性を評価するための信頼性の高い試験方法を提供しています。 さらに、この試験方法はすべての断熱材に推奨されるわけではなく、関連する製品標準がこの標準の適用対象となる製品を明記しているため、適切な使用が求められます。この点は、特定の製品に対して適切な評価方法を選定する上で非常に重要です。 SIST EN 12091:2013は、建築材料の品質を確保し、耐久性を高めるための基準を提供する意味でもその relevancy は高く、建材業界における標準化に寄与する重要な文書であると言えます。
Die Norm EN 12091:2013 behandelt die Bestimmung der Frost-Tau-Widerstandsfähigkeit von wärmedämmenden Produkten für Bauanwendungen. Sie legt die erforderlichen Geräte sowie die Verfahren fest, um die Auswirkungen von wiederholtem Wechsel zwischen trockenen Bedingungen bei -20 °C und nassen Bedingungen bei 20 °C auf die mechanischen Eigenschaften und den Feuchtigkeitsgehalt der Produkte zu ermitteln. Der Anwendungsbereich dieser Norm ist besonders relevant für wärmedämmende Produkte, die häufig Wasser und niedrigen Temperaturen ausgesetzt sind, wie beispielsweise bei auf inversen Dächern und ungeschützter Perimeterdämmung. Ein wesentlicher Stärke der EN 12091:2013 ist die klare Definition der Prüfbedingungen und -methoden, wodurch die Konsistenz und Zuverlässigkeit der Testergebnisse gewährleistet wird. Darüber hinaus trägt die Norm dazu bei, die langfristige Leistungsfähigkeit von Dämmmaterialien unter extremen klimatischen Bedingungen zu bewerten, was für die Planung und Realisierung von energieeffizienten Bauwerken von großer Bedeutung ist. Die Relevanz dieser Norm zeigt sich darin, dass sie den Herstellern ermöglicht, die Widerstandsfähigkeit ihrer Produkte gegen Frost- und Tauzyklen nachzuweisen, was nicht nur für den Endverbraucher von Vorteil ist, sondern auch für die gesamte Bauindustrie. Die spezifizierten Prüfverfahren stellen sicher, dass die getesteten Produkte den Anforderungen an die thermische Isolierung in unterschiedlichen Klimazonen gerecht werden können. Es ist jedoch wichtig zu beachten, dass diese Prüfmethoden nicht für alle wärmedämmenden Produkte empfohlen werden. Die Produktstandards geben an, für welche spezifischen Produkte die Norm anwendbar ist, was eine gezielte und sichere Anwendung der Norm ermöglicht. Somit bleibt die EN 12091:2013 ein unverzichtbares Instrument für die Qualitätssicherung in der Bauindustrie, insbesondere in Bereichen, in denen Frost-Tau-Bedingungen vorherrschen.
