This TG is still a valid document for the measurement of particles all over the world. When nanomaterials gained importance, ISO set up a technical commitee for Nanotechnologies in 2005 and the OECD followed this step in 2006 with the Working Party on Manufactured Nanomaterials. In the following years ISO and OECD published several documents about nanomaterials and the systematisation developed. In 2017 it was finally clear that nanomaterials need to be adressed in another way than chemicals and in 2020 ECHA revised the REACH-Annexes accordingly and included nanomaterials. Unfortunately there is a little problem with this: Only a few applicable test guidelines exit for the measurement of the nanomaterials. Several test guidelines date from 1981 and do not address nanomaterials. The logical next step for the OECD would be to publish a series of test guidelines which are indeed currently prepared and will be shown in this talk. Finally there is an additional need for the future of NM standardisation: Digitalisation.

T1 - StandardBoard - Produktnorm für Lehmplatten T1 - StandardBoard - A product standard for earthen panels N2 - Die Anwendung von modernen Lehmbaustoffen hat in den letzten Jahren überdurchschnittliche Wachstumsraten erreicht. Für Bauherren und Planer ausschlaggebend ist häufig ihr extrem niedriger CO2-Äquivalentkennwert. Entsprechend wurden Lehmplatten in einem Projekt mit Pilotcharakter für den Umbau des alten Abgeordnetenhauses in Bonn zum Gebäude des Klimareferats der Vereinten Nationen verwendet. Bei der Entscheidung für die Bauweise mit Lehmplatten standen vor allem raumklimatische und schallschutztechnische, das heißt gesundheitliche Aspekte, aber auch der Wunsch nach erhöhter Nachhaltigkeit im Vordergrund. Durch das Fehlen einer Norm entstehen im Vergleich zu geregelten Bauprodukten jedoch noch deutliche Wettbewerbsnachteile für Produzenten von Lehmplatten. Planer und Anwender sehen aufgrund fehlender Prüfzertifikate nicht selten von der Anwendung dieser Lehmbaustoffe ab. Wie schon für Lehmsteine und Lehmmörtel sollen deshalb jetzt auch für Lehmplatten an der Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) in dem Projekt StandardBoard Grundlagen für eine Produktnorm geschaffen werden. Darin ist als Projektpartner der Hersteller Conluto beteiligt. Zweck des in Erarbeitung befindlichen Regelwerks ist es, über die Festlegung von Qualitätsanforderungen und Prüfvorschriften die Gebrauchstauglichkeit von Lehmplatten sicherzustellen und somit einerseits Sicherheit für Planer und Anwender und andererseits Vergleichbarkeit und damit Konkurrenzfähigkeit zu konventionellen Plattenprodukten für gleiche Einbaubereiche zu erreichen. Darüber hinaus stellt sie ein Instrument dar, um die besonderen ökologischen und bauphysikalischen Eigenschaften der Lehmbaustoffe hervorzuheben. Die Erarbeitung des Regelwerks erfolgt in enger Abstimmung mit dem Dachverband Lehm e. V. (DVL). N2 - In recent years. the utilization of modern building materials made from soil has extended considerably. For building principals and designers. this decision is often determined by their extremely low carbon dioxide equivalent. A paradigm is the application of earth panels in the conversion of the former House of Representatives in Bonn to the secretariat of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. The choice of earth panels was determined not only by considerations of indoor climate and acoustic insulation issues. but particularly by an endeavour to attain a high level of sustainability. The lack of a standard causes producers of earth panels to experience considerable competitive disadvantages. With the absence of test certificates. designers as well as implementers refrain from using earth materials. The project StandardBoard has been initiated with the purpose of developing the basis for a product standard for earth panels. being realized at the BAM. where also standards for earth blocks and earth mortars have been developed. The BAM is cooperating with the project partner Conluto. a manufacturer of earth panels. The object of the standard being in development is to guarantee the usability of earth panels by stating quality requirements and testing procedures and thereby to achieve safety for designers and users as well as competitiveness with established panels. Furthermore. a standard allows to emphasize the special ecological and climatic features of earth materials. The drafting of the standard is coordinated in close relation to the German Association for Earth Construction (DVL). T2 - Lehm 2016 - 7.

The basic idea is that the new standard proposal should follow the basic line outs from SEP 1927 and ASTM E588. Additional to these relatives the standard should be open to different types of specimen and inspection frequencies to cover a wide range from bars, rings and plates as well as different inspection sensitivities. For an enhance in resolution the standard draft focuses on immersion focal beam probes which should be selected according to the geometry of the specimen. The selection should be proved with the aid of simulation tools. The frequency shall be at least 10 MHz. For specimen thicknesses of less than 6 mm a frequency of at least 25 MHz shall be used. Calibration procedures had to be improved significantly compared to the old standards to allow proper sizing of indications. Therefore calibration procedures shall take signal processing into account. For detailed evaluation of the amplitude dependency and for calibration a reference block with a sufficient number of reflectors has to be used. The recorded echo height shall be directly transferred into an equivalent disc shaped reflector EDSR by a distance amplitude curve. The novelty in this standard draft will be that based on 3D measurements and 3D evaluation the amplitude criterion of an indication becomes just one among some other criteria. This standard takes the signal amplitude, signal amplitude distribution and signal travel time for classification into account. The standard draft will be open to the definition of the volume to be investigated to be set by the user. This will make evaluation more comparable to other methods because the inspected area has to be user defined. We recommend CEN/TC 138 to decide on a work item for this proposal to become an EU and an ISO standard using Vienna agreement. The research leading to these results has received funding from the European Union's Research Fund for Coal and Steel (RFCS) research programme under grant agreement n° RFSR-CT-2013-00014.

N2 - Reciprocating friction tests are often used to investigate the tribological performance of systems. However, the evaluation of the coefficient of friction of these tests lacks harmonisation. This webinar hosted by TriboNet provides insights into this topic from different perspectives. At the same time, the community can engage with the creators of the “Tribology Challenge” hosted by i-TRIBOMAT.

The compounds used were a commercial PEEK matrix with 10 wt.% each of PTFE, graphite, and short carbon fibres (Polytron), a PPS matrix with 10 wt.% each of PTFE and graphite (MOCOM), and an experimental PA12 matrix with PTFE, chamically coupled with an oleyl alcohol, as additive (supplied by the polymer research institute IPF). For all compounds a steel counter disc (type 316L / 1.4404) with a lapped surface finish was used in a cylinder-on-disc setup. Next to the tribological performance of the polymer compounds in hydrogen atmosphere, a strong focus of the work was to compare the results obtained with different tribometer setups. The tests were carried out with three different tribometers at two institutions. The challenge to compare and harmonise equipment, procedures, test and evaluation methods was an important part of the study. This includes the determination of the wear volumes of the polymeric cylinders with different wear analysis workflows. Furthermore, selected results of the wear and the resulting change in the contact geometry were compared with an FEM simulation and an analytical model.

The "Versailles Project on Advanced Materials and Standards" offers a framework for performing such ILCs: (i) TiO2 nanoparticles using ToF-SIMS, and (ii) the chemical composition of functionalized graphene using XPS. The results of both ILCs underline the importance of sample preparation for the measured results.

The compounds used were a commercial PEEK matrix with 10 wt.% each of PTFE, graphite, and short carbon fibres, a PPS matrix with 10 wt.% each of PTFE and graphite, and an experimental PA12 matrix with PTFE chemically coupled with an oleyl alcohol. Due to the cylindrical shape of the polymer samples, the contact area and pressure change if wear occurs. Therefore, experimental results of pre-screening tests have been used as input for FEM and an analytical model to determine the decreasing contact pressure over time. Afterwards, the outcome of the models was used to determine the duration of the experiments to reach typical contact pressures of seals in hydrogen compressors.
