EN 46-2:2006 (E) 4 Introduction This test method describes a laboratory method of test which gives a basis for the assessment of the preventive action of a wood preservative, when applied as a surface treatment for timber, against eggs of Hylotrupes bajulus. In combination with EN 46-1 it provides a means of checking whether larvae may hatch from eggs laid on the treated wood surface and whether they are capable of boring through the treated surface and of surviving in the untreated part of the wood. When products which are very active at very low concentration are used, it is very important to take suitable precautions to isolate and separate, as far as possible, operations involving chemical products, other products, treated wood, laboratory apparatus and clothing. Suitable precautions should include the use of separate rooms, areas within rooms, extraction facilities, conditioning chambers and special training for personnel (also see Annex C for environmental, health and safety precautions).
EN 46-2:2006 (E) 5 1 Scope This part of EN 46 specifies a method for the determination of the preventive action of a wood preservative against eggs of Hylotrupes bajulus (Linnaeus) when the preservative is applied as a surface treatment to wood. This method is applicable to:
water-insoluble chemicals which are being studied as active insecticides, organic formulations, as supplied or as prepared in the laboratory by dilution of concentrates, organic water-dispersible formulations as supplied or as prepared in the laboratory by dilution of concentrates, or water-soluble materials, for example salts. The method is applicable whether or not the test specimens have been subjected to appropriate ageing procedures. 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 46-1, Wood preservatives - Determination of the preventive action against Hylotrupes bajulus (Linnaeus) - Part 1:Larvicidial effect (Laboratory method) EN 73, Wood preservatives - Accelerated ageing of treated wood prior to biological testing - Evaporative ageing procedure EN 84, Wood preservatives - Accelerated ageing of treated wood prior to biological testing - Leaching procedure EN ISO 3696, Water for analytical laboratory use – Specification and test methods (ISO 3696:1987) 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this European Standard, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 representative sample sample having its physical and/or chemical characteristics identical to the volumetric average characteristics of the total volume being sampled [EN 1001-2:2005, 4.71] 3.2 supplier sponsor of the test (person or company providing the sample of wood preservative to be tested)
EN 46-2:2006 (E) 6 [adapted from EN 1001-2, 4.83] 4 Principle In this laboratory method treated wood panels are offered to freshly mated Hylotrupes bajulus females. The hatching ability of the larvae on the treated timber is examined. When the ovicidal action is insufficient, the mortality of the hatched larvae on and/or in wood treated with the same formulation is also established according to EN 46-1. 5 Test materials 5.1 Biological material
