Leather - Physical and mechanical tests - Determination of fogging characteristics

This European Standard specifies two alternative methods for determining the fogging characteristics of leathers used in the passenger compartments of motor vehicles, namely Method A and Method B.  However, these are
2 different test procedures to measure the volatile components and there is no mathematical correlation between the results obtained with Method A and those with Method B.
Method A determines by reflection the light scattering properties (or opaqueness) and the nature of the film or droplet formation from volatile components condensed on a cold glass surface. Method B measures gravimetrically the quantity of volatile components condensed on a cold aluminium foil surface. Annex A gives the results of inter-laboratory trial which show that Method B performs well whereas Method A showed a large variation in the percentage reflection.
The test conditions allow the two tests to be carried out in succession.

Cuir - Essais physiques et mécaniques - Détermination des caractéristiques de la condensation provoquée par le cuir

La présente Norme européenne spécifie deux méthodes qu'il est possible d'utiliser afin de déterminer les caractéristiques de la condensation provoquée par les cuirs utilisés dans les compartiments passagers des véhicules à moteur. La méthode A préconise l'utilisation d'un réflectomètre et la méthode B est une méthode gravimétrique. Les conditions d'essai permettent de mener les deux méthodes d'essai à la suite.
