Materials obtained from End-of-Life Tyres (ELT) - Sampling method for granulates and powders stored in big-bags and small-bags
This document specifies methods for obtaining a sample of rubber granulates or powders derived from end-of-life tyres which have been stored in big-bags and small-bags.
Several sample increments at different levels within the bag are obtained, which represent the average particle size distribution within the bag. From these sample increments, a representative sample is derived.
The methods described in this standard may be used, for example, when the samples are to be tested for bulk density, durability, particle size distribution, moisture content, ash content, ash melting behaviour, calorific value, chemical composition, and impurities.
Materialien aus Altreifen (ELTs) - Probeentnahme für in Big Bags und Small Bags gelagerte Granulate und Mehle
Dieses Dokument legt Verfahren zur Gewinnung einer Probe von Gummigranulat oder -mehlen aus Altreifen fest, die in Big Bags und Small Bags gelagert wurden.
Es werden mehrere Einzelproben auf verschiedenen Ebenen innerhalb des Big Bags entnommen, die die durchschnittliche Partikelgrößenverteilung innerhalb des Big Bags darstellen. Aus diesen Einzelproben wird eine repräsentative Probe erstellt.
Die in diesem Dokument beschriebenen Verfahren können beispielsweise verwendet werden, wenn die Schüttdichte, die Beständigkeit, die Partikelgrößenverteilung, der Feuchtegehalt, der Aschegehalt, das Schmelzverhalten von Asche, der Brennwert, die chemische Zusammensetzung sowie Verunreinigungen der Proben ermittelt werden sollen.
Matériaux obtenus à partir de pneus usagés non réutilisables (PUNR) - Méthode d'échantillonnage de granulats et de poudrettes stockés dans des big-bags et des sacs
Le présent document spécifie des méthodes permettant d'obtenir un échantillon de granulats ou de poudrettes de caoutchouc issus de pneus usagés non réutilisables, qui ont été stockés dans des big-bags et des sacs.
Plusieurs prises élémentaires sont prélevées à différents niveaux dans le big-bag, elles représentent la distribution granulométrique moyenne dans le big-bag. Un échantillon représentatif est obtenu à partir de ces prises élémentaires.
Les méthodes décrites dans la présente norme peuvent être utilisées, par exemple, lorsque les échantillons doivent être soumis à essai pour ce qui concerne la masse volumique apparente, la durabilité, la distribution granulométrique, la teneur en humidité, la teneur en cendres, la fusibilité des cendres, le pouvoir calorifique, la composition chimique et les impuretés.

European foreword
This document (prEN 17188:2023) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 366 “Materials
obtained from End-of-Life Tyres (ELT)”, the secretariat of which is held by UNI.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede CEN/TS 17188:2018.
to CEN/TS 17188:2018:
— addition of a sampling method for small-bags in the Title and Scope;
— revision of the used terminology to integrate small-bags;
— review of the general structure of the document.
Introduction
Particle size distribution and related parameters are key measurements for product characterization of
size-reduced materials, such as granulates and powders derived from End-of-Life Tyres (ELTs). To obtain
an accurate particle size distribution, a representative sample of the material to be tested will be taken
according to the principle that every particle of the sample that represents the lot will have an equal
probability of being included in the sample.
Sampling criteria to assess characteristics of granulates and powders at different stages of a production
process by size reduction of end-of-life tyres are given in EN 14243-2:2019, Clause 5.
When the lot to be characterized is a big-bag or a small-bag, particular attention is needed in order to
obtain a representative sample(s) because of the tendency of the stored material to segregate over time
with the smaller particles settling in the lower part of the bag.
1 Scope
This document specifies methods for obtaining a sample of rubber granulates or powders derived from
end-of-life tyres which have been stored in big-bags and small-bags.
Several sample increments at different levels within the bag are obtained, which represent the average
particle size distribution within the bag. From these sample increments, a representative sample is
derived.
The methods described in this standard may be used, for example, when the samples are to be tested for
bulk density, durability, particle size distribution, moisture content, ash content, ash melting behaviour,
calorific value, chemical composition, and impurities.
