1 Scope This European Standard specifies a test method to determine the resistance to wear of lacquered wood floorings, a method to test the elasticity of the lacquer and a method to determine resistance to impact of lacquered wood floorings. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 13756:2002, Wood flooring – Terminology
EN ISO 868, Plastics and ebonite – Determination of indentation hardness by means of a durometer (Shore hardness) (ISO 868:2003) EN ISO 291, Plastics – Standard atmospheres for conditioning and testing (ISO 291:2008) 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN 13756:2002 and the following apply. 3.1 lacquer film making agent modifying surface layer properties NOTE It has a measurable thickness. 4 Common methods 4.1 Conditioning 4.1.1 Equipment Enclosures with the following climatic conditions:
climate A
temperature of (20 ± 2) C and relative humidity of (65 ± 5) %; or
climate B
temperature of (23 ± 2) C and relative humidity of (50 ± 5) %. 4.1.2 Procedure The manufacturer shall specify either of the conditioning climates above. Unless otherwise specified, all equipment and materials required for the test shall be stabilised and kept in an enclosure in the climate specified. SIST EN 13696:2009

either a square with a side of 120 mm, its corners being trimmed so as to have a diagonal length reduced to about 130 mm,
or, a disc with a diameter of about 130 mm. Samples, from which it is intended to obtain a test piece, may be smaller than the above dimensions. In that case, a test piece shall be produced by jointing two or more elements according to the manufacturer's specifications. Bore a hole (6 ± 0,5) mm diameter and axis normal to the surface at the centre of the test piece. 5.2.2 Sampling Three test pieces shall be cut. The clearance between two test pieces shall be at least 100 mm. For elements which have to be jointed, the three test species shall be made out of elements picked out at random. NOTE This sampling gives an estimation of the property of the lot. 5.2.3 Conditioning The test pieces shall be conditioned to constant mass in one of the climates defined in 4.1. Prior to testing, the lacquer shall be fully cured according to the manufacturer's instructions. 5.3 Abrading system 5.3.1 Principle The system described in this Standard is a grit feeder system: a specified loose abrasive is fed continuously on to the face of the test piece, in the track of the loaded wheels. NOTE Other methods described in other standards could be possible. In this case, the results are expressed without making reference to this Standard.
Supporting disc Supporting disc shall have a minimum diameter of 105 mm, rotating in the horizontal plane with a permitted deviation of ± 2 mm/m, at (60 ± 2) r.p.m, the test piece being tightly held flat by means of a suitable clamping device. Abrading wheels Two cylindrical wheels free to turn on their axis, balanced by lever and counterweight, with nominal diameter and width of respectively 44,4 mm and 12,7 mm. They are fitted with a leather strip having a width of (12,7 ± 0,1) mm and a minimum thickness of 1,5 mm. The overall diameter of the wheels, when fitted with leather strips, shall not be less than 47,4 mm.
The distance between the internal faces of the wheels shall be (53 ± 2) mm, their common axis being set by 20 mm nominally of the axis of the test piece revolving support. The axis of rotation of the test piece shall be equidistant from the two wheels. A device shall apply the abrading wheels on the test piece with a force of (10 ± 0,1) N by each wheel. The device shall be able to maintain the 20 mm eccentricity for all possible thicknesses of test pieces. Revolution counter A revolution counter is needed to record the number of revolutions of the supporting disc.
