T1 - Robustness validation of two harmonized European leaching tests for assessment ot the leaching of construction products, including waste-based construction materials N2 - Two leaching tests, a tank leaching test (TS-2) and a percolation test (TS-3), developed by CEN/TC 351 for use in assessing environmental properties in relation to CE marking of construction products, are undergoing robustness validation as part of the standardisation procedure. This paper provides an overview of the activities included in the robustness validation programme.

T1 - A study of degradation of historic parchment using small-angle X-ray scattering, synchrotron-IR and multivariate data analysis N2 - Parchment has been in use for thousands of years and has been used as the writing or drawing support for many important historic works. A variety of analyticaltechniques is currently used for routine assessment of the degree of denaturation of historic parchment; however, because parchment has a heterogeneous nature, analytical methods with high spatial resolution are desirable. In this work, the use of small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and synchrotron-IR (SR-IR) was examined in conjunction with multivariate data analysis to study degradation of an extended set of historic parchment samples, and particularly to investigate the effect of lipids and the presence of iron gall ink on the degradation processes. In the data analysis, shrinkage temperature, lipid content, sample age, presenceof ink and accelerated degradation were included. The analysis of loading factors in partial least-squares Regression and principal component analyses based on SAXS, SR-IR and other analytical and descriptive data reveals the effect of lipid removal on diffraction patterns, and lipids are found to cause the degradation process in parchment to accelerate. The effect of iron gall ink is also evident, although the mechanism of ageing is different to that of natural ageing in the absence of ink. In addition, a historic parchment score from ca. 1750 is examined, demonstrating the significant effect of iron gall ink, and lipids and inorganic soiling on ist increased degradation.

T1 - Sensory tests for building materials and rooms - Status of the standardisation N2 - To control the emission of pollutants from building materials, a few different voluntary labelling Systems have been introduced in Europe. In Germany mandatory “Principles for the health assessment of construction products used in interiors” have also been applied for the technical approval of floor coverings since 2004. All of these both voluntary and mandatory Systems combine measurements of volatile organic compounds according to ISO 16000-9 and sensory evaluations (new ISO 16000-28). In this paper a German project financed by the Umweltbundesamt (Federal Environmental Agency) will be presented. The project deals with the questions of how to combine the emission tests with the sensory evaluation and what the best sensory evaluation procedure is for achieving valid and accurate results. The limited values and the evaluation methods will be presented and discussed. In the next Step the criteria for labelling those products without an unpleasant odour will be determined. The current Status of ISO 16000 - 28 and 30 will be also presented.
