Specifies methods for determining characteristics for adhesives used in the installation of ceramic tiles.

ISO 13007-2 Test Methods for Ceramic Tile Grouts and Adhesives

ISO 13007-2:2010 describes methods for determining characteristics for adhesives used in the installation of ceramic tiles. The test methods described are determination of open time, determination of slip, determination of shear adhesion strength, determination of tensile adhesion strength, determination of transverse deformation and determination of chemical resistance.

ISO 13007-4 Test Methods for Grouts used for Ceramic Tiles

ISO 13007-4 describes methods for determining characteristics of grouts used in the installation of ceramic tiles. The test methods described are determination of flexural and compressive strength, determination of water absorption, determination of shrinkage, determination of resistance to abrasion, determination of transverse deformation and determination of chemical resistance.

For ISO 13007-2, you will need a tension testing machine and Compression testing machine. Test machine, for direct pull tensile force test and with suitable capacity and sensitivity for the test. The machine shall be capable of applying the load to the pull-head plate at the rate of (250 +- 50) N/s through suitable fitting that does not exert any bending force.

For ISO 13007-4, a universal compression testing machine is required, capable of applying the load with suitable capacity and sensitivity for the test. The machine shall be provided with a flexure device. The machine shall be capable of smoothly applying a load at the rate of (2400 +- 200) N/s.

By means of our testing expertise and modular product design, we will help find the solution that is right for you. Give our test engineers a call today for help configuring the best test machine and accessories according to ISO 13007.
