EN 12436:2001 (E)3ForewordThis European Standard has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 193 "Adhesives", the secretariat ofwhich is held by AENOR.This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text orby endorsement, at the latest by May 2002, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest byMay 2002.This standard gives performance requirements and test methods for casein adhesives, where they are permitted,for use under indoor conditions. It supplements EN 301 and should be used in conjunction with EN 302-1.The standard contains two normative annexes, annex A giving details of exposure cycles used before testing theloads and annex B describing test methods for the determination of the resistance of the adhesive to mould growth.According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the followingcountries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland,France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden,Switzerland and the United Kingdom.SIST EN 12436:2002
