EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of EN 13523-24 testing. This part of the EN 13523 series specifies the procedure for determining the resistance of an organic coating on a metallic substrate to blocking and/or pressure marking.
Blocking refers to the tendency of the coated metal surfaces to stick or stick together when pressed together, while pressure marking refers to the appearance of marks or prints on the coated surfaces when subjected to pressure. These issues can arise during the manufacture, transportation or storage of plated metal products and can be a major quality concern for manufacturers and end users.
The test involves placing a coated metal sample under a specified weight and temperature for a specified period of time and then evaluating the surface for any signs of clogging or pressure signs. Test conditions and evaluation criteria are designed to simulate the effects of typical production and storage conditions.
The purpose of this test is to evaluate the ability of coil coated metals to resist blocking and pressure marking effects that can compromise the appearance and quality of the coated surfaces. By subjecting coated metal surfaces to controlled weight and temperature conditions, this test provides a standardized way to evaluate the performance of coatings under high pressure and temperature conditions.
This standard is part of a set of test methods for coil-coated metals that includes procedures to evaluate a range of properties such as adhesion, abrasion resistance and weather resistance. EN 13523-24 is specifically focused on resistance to blocking and pressure marking and is applicable to a wide variety of coil-coated metal products used in a variety of industries.
