DIN Standards Committee Materials Testing

Overview

This document specifies methods for determining the pot life of multi-part adhesives, in order to be able to determine whether the pot life conforms to the minimum specified working life required of an adhesive. The different methods described in this document to measure the property do not necessarily provide identical results. The test methods described are suitable for assessing all multi-part adhesives, and especially epoxy based and polyurethane based adhesives, but they are not suitable for some acrylic-based adhesives. The responsible national standardization committee is Working Committee NA 062-10-02 AA "Prüfung von Konstruktionsklebstoffen, -klebverbindungen und Kernverbunden" ("Testing of structural adhesives, structural adhesive bondings and sandwiches") at DIN Standards Committee Materials Testing (NMP).
