Building lime - Part 2: Test methods
This document describes the test methods for all building limes covered by EN 459-1.
This document specifies in Table 2 the methods used for the chemical analyses and the determination of physical properties of building limes.
This document describes primary methods of chemical analyses. The reference methods and, in certain cases, alternative methods in this document can be considered to be equivalent.
Baukalk - Teil 2: Prüfverfahren
Dieses Dokument beschreibt Prüfverfahren für alle Baukalke, die in EN 459 1 enthalten sind.
Dieses Dokument legt in Tabelle 2 die Verfahren für die chemische Analyse und die Bestimmung der physikalischen Eigenschaften von Baukalken fest.
Dieses Dokument beschreibt die primären Verfahren zur chemischen Analyse. Die Referenzprüfverfahren und die in einigen Fällen festgelegten Alternativprüfverfahren in diesem Dokument können als gleichwertig angesehen werden.
Chaux de construction - Partie 2: Méthodes d’essai
La présente Norme européenne décrit les méthodes d'essai applicables à toutes les chaux de construction faisant l'objet de I'EN 459-1. Il peut aussi être appliqué à d’autres matériaux à base de chaux dont les normes font appel à ces méthodes.
La présente norme européenne prescrit les méthodes utilisées pour les analyses chimiques dans le tableau 2 et la détermination des propriétés physiques des chaux de construction.
Le présent document décrit les principales méthodes d’analyses chimiques. Les méthodes de références et, dans certains cas, des variantes qui peuvent être considérée comme équivalentes.
Toute autre méthode peut être utilisée à condition qu'elle soit étalonnée, soit par rapport aux méthodes de référence, soit aux matériaux de référence internationalement acceptés, afin de démontrer leur équivalence.

European foreword
This document (prEN 459-2:2019) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 51 “Cement and
building limes”, the secretariat of which is held by NBN.This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 492-2:2010.
In comparison with EN 459-2:2010, the following modifications have been:
— description of fusion with lithium tetraborate;
— a new Clause 4.1 included;
— amendments for the determinations of CaO and MgO;
— change of the order of methods for determination of CO ;
— Phenolphtalein as indicator replaced by thymolphtalein;
— Amendments for the determination of available lime;
— amendments of the methods for particle size determination;
— amendment for the description of bulk density;
— amendments for the determination of reactivity;
— amendments for the Table B.1 and Table B.2 in Annex B;
— editorial changes were made and minor mistakes corrected.
EN 459, Building lime, is currently composed of the following parts:
— Part 1: Definitions, specifications and conformity criteria;
— Part 2: Test methods;
— Part 3: Conformity evaluation.
The existing standards from the EN 196 series were used as a basis for the testing of physical and
mechanical properties in EN 459-2. For the testing of chemical properties of building limes, test
methods described in EN 12485 have been incorporated into this document.---------------------- Page: 7 ----------------------

Introduction
The objective in this document has been to adopt as many European standardized methods as possible,
and where this has not been possible, to use other appropriate proven methods.Unless otherwise stated, tolerance class m of ISO 2768-1 apply (Indications on drawings by “ISO 2768-
m”).All dimensions are in millimetres.
