Two components of the adhesive were mixed according to the instructions of the manufacturer, spread on a steel plate, dried in room temperature and ground finely in the testing laboratory. ‘The test sample was conditioned to constant moisture content at a temperature of 20 + 2°C and a relative humidity of 65 + 5 %. ISO 1716:1973 Building materials: - Determination of calorific potential The amounts of heat quantities set free or absorbed by the chemical reactions that have been taken place during the combustion at high pressure of oxygen according to the standard (2451,6 kN/m’) and that do not take place when the combustion occurs at atmospheric pressure were not determined, because they are not necessary for determination of maximum value of calorific potential The results of three tests were 13,90, 13,94 and 14,03 Mi/kg. The maximum gross calorific value of Maristick 1700 A & B is 14,0 Mi/kg of dry mass, ‘The test results relate only to the items tested.

RTE2670/00 1) BUILDING TECHNOLOGY APPENDIX 1 Description of the method ISO 1716:1973 Building materials: Determination of calorific potential Gross calorific potential: The amount of heat released by the complete combustion of a unit mass of the material. The gross calorific potential under constant volume is considered in this method. Specimen: Homogenous mixture of ground sample material and additional substance having a known calorific potential (e.g. guaranteed benzoic acid) if necessary to ascertain the complete combustion or ground sample material inserted in an envelope made of very combustible mate- rial having a known and high gross calorific potential or any other method, mass about 1 g. Conditioning: The specimen shall be conditioned for 20 h in surroundings having a temperature of 20 + 2°C and relative humidity of 65 +5 %. Test method: The specimen is ignited inside a “bomb” (a closed steel cylinder) in pressurised oxygen atmosphere of 2451,6 kPa. The isoperibol bomb calorimeter measures the temperature ri- se of the surrounding water and calculates the calorific value according to the following formula: _41868E(t,, —t) +¢)—C - m Oey KJ | kg where gross calorific value, kJ/kg water equivalent of the calorimeter, determined with identical calibration tests using guar- anteed benzoic acid and identical mass of water (the mass of water W is eliminated in the formula), keal/°C mass of the test specimen, kg maximum temperature, °C initial temperature, °C . temperature correction expressed required for the exchange of heat with outside, °C C= other corrections than to the water jacket, kJ: ~ the amount of heat introduced by the burning of the additional substances and the substances used for firing - the amounts of heat quantities set free or absorbed by the chemical reactions that have been taken place during combustion in an oxygen atmosphere in the high pressure in presence of 5 ml of distilled water and that do not take place at atmospheric pressure. Concentrations of sulphuric and nitric acid of the distilled water and the washings of the bomb are analysed. The determina tions and the corrections are made according to standard ISO 1928:1995, Solid mineral fuels - Determination of gross calorific value by the bomb calorimetric method, and calculation of net calorific value. The corrections due to other substances are not evaluated significant. Any case the results are in safe side even though all possible analyses and corrections are not made. Number of specimens: The test shall be carried out on three specimens. The results of these three tests shall not differ by more than 167 kI/kg. If the difference between any two results is greater than 167 KI/KI the entire test shall be repeated.The gross calorific potential is the average of the three test results.
