Overview
SIST EN 15466-3:2024 is the latest European standard developed by CEN for primers used with cold and hot applied joint sealants. This part of the EN 15466 series specifies a standardized method for determining the solids content and the evaporation behaviour of volatiles in primers. Accurate measurement of these properties is essential for ensuring primer quality, coating performance, and durability in sealing applications. The standard replaces the previous 2009 edition and incorporates updated definitions, test procedures, and reporting requirements to support manufacturers, testing laboratories, and construction professionals.
Key Topics
Solids Content Determination
This parameter measures the residual solid fraction of the primer after evaporation of volatiles under controlled heating conditions (110 °C). It quantifies the actual binder and filler content critical to primer performance.Evaporation Behaviour of Volatiles
The method defines how to assess the mass loss of volatile compounds from primers under standard atmosphere (23 °C, 50% RH) after specified conditioning periods (60 and 90 minutes). This helps evaluate drying rates and primer readiness for sealant application.Test Conditions and Procedures
The standard outlines detailed sample preparation, conditioning, and weighing protocols using syringes and Petri dishes. Tests are conducted in triplicate for repeatability, with conditioning in standard atmospheres conforming to EN ISO 291.Calculation Methods
Precise formulas are provided to calculate:- Evaporation loss percentages after 60 and 90 minutes, relative to total evaporation after heating.
- Solids content percentage relative to initial primer mass.
Reporting Requirements
Test reports must include product details, batch information, test dates, individual results, averages, and confirmation of compliance with SIST EN 15466-3:2024.
Applications
SIST EN 15466-3:2024 is vital for industries and professionals involved in:
Road Construction and Maintenance
Ensuring primers used with joint sealants meet rigorous quality standards to withstand environmental and mechanical stresses.Building and Civil Engineering
Controlling primer properties promotes optimal adhesion and longevity of sealants in expansion joints, façade elements, and pavement repairs.Quality Control Laboratories
Standardized testing facilitates batch verification, supplier qualification, and product development by providing reliable data on primer solids and volatile content.Sealant Manufacturing
Manufacturers use this method to tune resin formulations and solvents to balance drying time, adhesion, and handling characteristics.
By verifying the solids content and evaporation characteristics, SIST EN 15466-3:2024 ensures that primers perform consistently for both cold and hot-applied joint sealant systems.
