Paints and varnishes - Coating materials and coating systems for exterior wood - Resistance to blocking of paints and varnishes on wood
This Technical Specification specifies a test method for determining, under standard conditions, whether a single-coat film or a multi-coat system of paints and varnishes on wood after a specified drying period is sufficiently dry to avoid damage when two painted surfaces or one painted surface and another surface are placed in contact under pressure and subsequently separated. The method is intended to simulate the conditions when painted articles come into contact which each other. In comparison to EN ISO 9117 2, the conditioning and parameters which influences the behaviour of wood coatings are more specific.
NOTE In some countries, the test is called a “block or blocking resistance” test.
Beschichtungsstoffe - Beschichtungsstoffe und Beschichtungssysteme für Holz im Außenbereich - Bestimmung der Blockfestigkeit
Diese Technische Spezifikation legt ein Prüfverfahren, unter Normbedingungen, zur Bestimmung ob ein Ein- oder Mehrschichtsystem von Beschichtungsstoffen auf Holz nach einer festgelegten Trocknungsdauer ausreichend trocken ist, um Beschädigungen zu vermeiden, wenn zwei beschichtete Flächen oder eine beschichtete Fläche und eine andere Fläche unter Druck Kontakt miteinander haben und danach getrennt werden, fest. Das Verfahren ist dafür vorgesehen, die Bedingungen wenn beschichtete Gegenstände miteinander Kontakt haben, zu simulieren. Im Vergleich zu EN ISO 9117 2 sind die Konditionierung und die Parameter, die das Leistungsverhalten von Holzbeschichtungen beeinflussen, spezifischer.
ANMERKUNG In einigen Ländern wird die Prüfung „Blockfestigkeitsprüfung“ genannt.
Peintures et vernis - Produits de peinture et systèmes de peinture pour le bois en extérieur - Résistance au blocage des peintures et vernis sur bois
La présente Spécification technique spécifie une méthode d’essai permettant de déterminer, dans les conditions normales, si un feuil monocouche ou un système multi-couches de peintures et vernis sur bois, après une durée spécifiée de séchage, est suffisamment sec pour ne pas être endommagé lorsque deux surfaces peintes ou une surface peinte et une autre surface sont placées en contact sous pression avant d’être séparées. La méthode est destinée à simuler les conditions auxquelles sont soumis des articles peints lorsqu’ils entrent en contact les uns avec les autres. Comparé à l’EN ISO 9117 2, le conditionnement et les paramètres qui influencent le comportement des revêtements pour bois sont plus spécifiques.
NOTE Dans certains pays, l’essai est appelé « essai de résistance au blocage » ou « essai de résistance à l’adhérence ».

This Technical Specification (CEN/TS) was approved by CEN on 12 February 2013 for provisional application.
The period of validity of this CEN/TS is limited initially to three years. After two years the members of CEN will be requested to submit their
comments, particularly on the question whether the CEN/TS can be converted into a European Standard.
CEN members are required to announce the existence of this CEN/TS in the same way as for an EN and to make the CEN/TS available
promptly at national level in an appropriate form. It is permissible to keep conflicting national standards in force (in parallel to the CEN/TS)

Foreword
This document (CEN/TS 16499:2013) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 139 “Paints and
varnishes”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
Remark about climatic conditions:
EN 23270, Paints and varnishes and their raw materials — Temperatures and humidity for conditioning and
testing (ISO 3270) prescribe the use of standard conditions 23/50 [(23 ± 2) °C and (50 ± 5) % relative
humidity]. Historically for wooden substrates there are a lot of mechanical properties which refer to the
alternative standard conditions 20/65 [(20 ± 2) °C and (65 ± 5) % relative humidity] according to
ISO 554, Standard atmospheres for conditioning and/or testing — Specifications. Therefore, the use of
standard conditions 20/65 instead of standard conditions 23/50 could be arranged but should be noted.
According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following
countries are bound to announce this Technical Specification: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus,
Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany,
Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland,
Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom.
1 Scope
This Technical Specification specifies a test method for determining, under standard conditions, whether a
single-coat film or a multi-coat system of paints and varnishes on wood after a specified drying period is
sufficiently dry to avoid damage when two painted surfaces or one painted surface and another surface are
placed in contact under pressure and subsequently separated. The method is intended to simulate the
conditions when painted articles come into contact which each other. In comparison to EN ISO 9117-2, the
conditioning and parameters which influences the behaviour of wood coatings are more specific.
NOTE In some countries, the test is called a “block or blocking resistance” test.
2 Normative references
The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are
indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references,
the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

Classification and selection
EN 23270, Paints and varnishes and their raw materials - Temperatures and humidities for conditioning and
testing (ISO 3270)
EN ISO 1513, Paints and varnishes - Examination and preparation of test samples (ISO 1513)

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
blocking
unwanted adhesion between two surfaces, at least one of which has been coated, when they are left in
contact under load after a given drying period
[SOURCE: EN ISO 4618:2006; 2.29]
Note 1 to entry: Blocking does not apply to bonding of coated surfaces after insufficient drying.
Note 2 to entry: In practice, blocking can occur if coated wood panels are stacked on each other or on windows and
doors if the frames are in direct contact with the faces. Blocking depends on temperature and load (pressure).
Note 3 to entry: The term blocking is also sometimes used to describe agglomerated caked powder.
Note 4 to entry: Unwanted adhesion can lead to damage upon separation.
3.2
load
mass needed to achieve a suitable test pressure
Note 1 to entry: High temperature and humidity increase the challenge at a given load. The application method, film
thickness, drying conditions and climatic conditions should also be taken into account.
3.3
after tack
property of a film to remain sticky after normal drying or curing
[SOURCE: EN ISO 4618:2006; 2.8]
Note 1 to entry: The term after tack can also mean a subjectively stickiness of the surface (“finger tack” or “surface
tack”). This effect however might not necessarily be related to blocking.
3.4
stable mass
mass achieved when the difference between two subsequent weighings within 24 h does not exceed 0,2 %
[SOURCE: EN 927-5:2006; 3.3]
3.5
stackability
resistance to damage due to unwanted adhesion between adjacent surfaces of articles that develops when
these articles are left in contact
[SOURCE: EN ISO 9117-2:2010; 3.1]
4 Principle
The coating material or the coating system under test is applied on test panels or cut strips under specified
conditions. After specified drying time and under specified climatic conditions, the two test panels or cut
stripes are placed crosswise in contact with each other. This assembly is subsequently placed in a test
apparatus to be subjected to a specified load under specified climatic conditions. After a specified period of
time, the load is removed and the test panels manually separated under specific climatic conditions and the
contact areas examined for any damage to the coating in the area of contact.
5 Apparatus
5.1 Weights, of a mass which correspond to the requirements of 12.1.
5.2 Oven or conditioning chamber, depending on the selected climatic conditions during load (see
Clause 11 or 12.3):
— Oven of appropriate size, controlled at a temperature of (50 ± 2) °C or (60 ± 2) °C;
— climatic conditioning chamber where the selected climatic conditions can be achieved.
5.3 Inert substrate for application on Specimen s3.
