Agglomerated stone - Test methods - Part 13: Determination of electrical resistivity
This test method covers the determination of dc insulation resistance, volume resistance and resistivity, as well as surface resistance and resistivity, and the corresponding electrical conductance and conductivity, of specimens of agglomerated stone products conforming to the definition reported in EN 14618. These products are usually made by stone aggregates bound via either resin and filler or cement and water (paste components) or a mixture of polymer/cement and related addition (such as reinforcing fibres, electrically insulating/conducting fillers, etc.). Resistivity/conductivity may be also used as an indirect measure of some properties of agglomerated stones products (see Annex A).
Künstlich hergestellter Stein - Prüfverfahren - Teil 13: Bestimmung des spezifischen elektrischen Widerstands
Dieses Prüfverfahren umfasst die Bestimmung des Isolationswiderstands, des Durchgangswiderstands und
des spezifischen Durchgangswiderstands sowie des Oberflächenwiderstands und des spezifischen
Oberflächenwiderstands sowie der entsprechenden elektrischen Leitfähigkeiten und spezifischen elektrischen
Leitfähigkeiten von Probekörpern aus Produkten aus künstlich hergestellten Steinen, die der in EN 14618
angegebenen Definition entsprechen. Diese Produkte werden üblicherweise aus Gesteinskörnungen
hergestellt und entweder mit Harz und Füllstoffen oder Zement und Wasser (pastöse Bestandteile) oder
einem Gemisch aus Polymer/Zement und bestimmten Zusatzmitteln (z. B. Verstärkungsfasern, elektrisch
isolierenden/leitenden Füllstoffen usw.) gebunden. Der spezifische elektrische Widerstand/die spezifische
elektrische Leitfähigkeit darf auch als indirektes Maß für bestimmte Eigenschaften von Produkten aus
künstlich hergestellten Steinen angewendet werden (siehe Anhang A).
Pierre agglomérée - Méthodes d'essai - Partie 13: Détermination de la résistivité électrique
La présente méthode d'essai concerne la détermination en courant continu de la résistance d'isolement, de la résistance et de la résistivité transversales, de la résistance et de la résistivité superficielles, ainsi que des conductances et des conductivités électriques correspondantes, d'éprouvettes de produits en pierres agglomérées conformément a la définition indiquée dans l'EN 14618. Ces produits sont généralement composés de granulats de pierre liés par une résine et un filler, par du ciment et de l'eau (composants pâteux) ou par un mélange de polymeres/ciment et d'additions correspondantes (telles que des fibres de renforcement, des fillers isolants ou conducteurs, etc.). La résistivité et la conductivité peuvent également etre utilisées comme mesure indirecte de certaines propriétés de produits en pierres agglomérées (voir l'Annexe A).

1 Scope
This test method covers the determination of dc insulation resistance, volume resistance and resistivity, as well as
surface resistance and resistivity, and the corresponding electrical conductance and conductivity, of specimens of
agglomerated stone products conforming to the definition reported in EN 14618. These products are usually made
by stone aggregates bound via either resin and filler or cement and water (paste components) or a mixture of
polymer/cement and related addition (such as reinforcing fibres, electrically insulating/conducting fillers, etc.).
Resistivity/conductivity may be also used as an indirect measure of some properties of agglomerated stones
products (see Annex A).
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.
Not applicable
3 Principle
The resistance/conductance of an agglomerated stone specimen is evaluated by the measurement of direct current
(dc) flow in the specimen under specified conditions by appropriate electrode systems. Surface and volume
resistance/conductance may be measured separately by the same electrode system. The resistivity/conductivity
shall be calculated from specimen and electrode dimensions and shapes.
4 Definitions and symbols
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
4.1
insulation resistance (Ω ÆÆÆÆ Ω = ohm)
insulation resistance between two electrodes that are in electrical contact with an agglomerated stone specimen,
calculated as the ratio of the direct voltage applied to the electrodes to the total current flowing between them; it is
dependent upon the shape and size as well as the volume and surface resistance of the specimen.
4.2
volume resistance R (Ω)
v
volume resistance between two electrodes that are in electrical contact with a specimen, calculated as the ratio of
the direct voltage applied to the electrodes to that portion of the current between them that flows only through the
volume of the specimen.
4.3
surface resistance R (Ω)
s
surface resistance between two electrodes that are in electrical contact with the surface of an agglomerated stone
specimen, calculated as the ratio of the direct voltage applied to the electrodes to that portion of the current
between them which is primarily distributed on the specimen surface and a thin material layer beneath the
specimen surface. Surface conductivity cannot be known accurately, but only conventionally, because more or less
volume contribution is usually involved in the measurement, depending on the nature of the specimen and
environment.

4.4
volume resistivity ρ (Ω·m)
v
volume resistivity of the agglomerated stone material, which is calculated as the ratio of the potential gradient,
parallel to the current direction in the material, to the current density (i.e., the charge carriers flow through the
specimen, charge flowing in the unit time across the unit surface area normal to the current direction).
4.5
surface resistivity ρ (Ω )
s
†
surface resistivity of the agglomerated stone material, which is calculated as the ratio of the potential gradient
parallel to the current direction along its surface to the current per unit width of the surface.

volume conductivity γ (Ω ·m = S/m ÆÆ S = siemens)

v
reciprocal of the volume resistivity
4.7

surface conductivity γ (Ω )
s
†
reciprocal of the surface resistivity.
5 Sampling and test specimen preparation
Sampling is not the responsibility of the test laboratory, unless otherwise agreed. It shall be appropriate to
agglomerated stone consignment. Whenever possible, the random sampling method shall be used. Test
specimens shall be however representative of the agglomerated stone sample and can be directly obtained from
both laboratory moulding and curing according a detailed procedure (properly described in the test report) and/or
core samples taken "in situ" and cut to proper size for the measuring apparatus. The surfaces shall be honed or
polished.
The test specimen may have any practical shape allowing the use of proper three terminal electrodes system,
according to the electrode assembly schematically shown in Figure 1 for flat test specimens. Sheet specimens like
those illustrated in Figure 1 should exhibit a thickness exceeding by 20% the largest stone fragments size used in
the agglomerated stone and a diameter 20 to 160 mm, according to the resistivity of the tested material. At least
five test specimens shall be selected by sampling.
6 Specimen conditioning
Measurements shall be made on either room-conditioned or dried specimens. In the first case specimens shall be
measured after proper conditioning (24 h at least) in the measuring environment according to other existing
standard conditioning procedures. In the latter case, specimen should be dried to constant weight in a circulating-
air oven at (70±5) °C, i.e. difference < 0,1 mass % by consecutive weighing/24 h. After removing from the oven,
specimens shall be cooled to room temperature in a dessicator under anhydrous atmosphere (anhydrous calcium
chloride can be used) or in a vacuum enclosure till testing.
7 Electrode system and measuring equipment
Flat circular electrodes with the three-terminal configuration of Figure 1 shall be used for the measurement of
volume and surface characteristics of agglomerated stones flat specimens. The guard electrode allows any
contribution of the surface conductivity to be excluded in the measurement of volume conductivity. It may be
omitted only for materials that have really ascertained negligible charge
