EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of EN 993-2 testing. This part of EN 993 specifies a method for measuring the true density of refractory products and materials.
EN 993-2 is a European standard that specifies the method for determining the true density of densely shaped refractory products. This test method is applicable to all dense shaped refractory products, including bricks, tiles and other shaped products.
The actual density of a refractory product is defined as the density of the material itself, without any pores or voids. This feature is important because it affects the performance of the refractory product in high temperature applications such as furnaces or kilns.
The test method described in EN 993-2 involves measuring the weight of a dry test sample and then immersing it in water for a specified time to allow full saturation. The sample is then reweighed while suspended in water and the actual density is calculated from the weight measurements and the known volume of the sample.
The standard specifies the equipment and procedures to be used for testing, including preparing the test specimen, measuring its dimensions, and determining its weight. The standard also provides guidance on calculating actual density and reporting test results.
Overall, EN 993-2 provides a standardized method for determining the true density of densely shaped refractory products, which is important for ensuring consistent quality and performance in high temperature applications.
