European foreword
This document (EN 204:2016) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 193 “Adhesives”,
the secretariat of which is held by AENOR.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an
identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by February 2017, and conflicting national standards
shall be withdrawn at the latest by February 2017.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document supersedes EN 204:2001.
Compared to EN 204:2001 the following modifications have been made:
a) references to tests with thick bond lines have been removed;
b) assessment is based on 20 test pieces;
c) additional information on conditioning sequences added in Table 2.

Introduction
European Standards giving a common classification with respect to durability classes for wood
adhesives will allow considerable improvement in consumer protection in any future product liability
system with regard to properties guaranteed by the adhesive manufacturer.

1 Scope
This European Standard classifies thermoplastic resin based wood adhesives for non-structural
applications into durability classes D1 to D4 based on the dry and wet strengths of bond-lines measured
under specified conditions after various conditioning treatments.
For special applications, further tests that do not fall within the scope of this European standard can be
applicable.
The adhesives specified in this European standard are suitable for the bonding of furniture and interior
structures, panelling, doors, windows, stairs etc. made of wood or derived timber products.
This European Standard does not specify the temperature resistance of bond-lines.

The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are
indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated
references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

4 Classification
An adhesive shall be classified in accordance with Table 1, which gives examples of climatic conditions
and fields of application in which the bonded member is to be used. The classification shall be based on
tests on thin bond-lines as defined in EN 205:2016.

Table 1 — Description of durability classes
Durability
Examples of climatic conditions and fields of application

D1 Interior, in which the moisture content of the wood does not exceed 15 %
Interior with occasional short-term exposure to running or condensed water
D2 and/or to occasional high humidity provided the moisture content of the wood
does not exceed 18 %
Interior with frequent short-term exposure to running or condensed water
D3
and/or to heavy exposure to high humidity. Exterior not exposed to weather
Interior with frequent long-term exposure to running or condensed water.
D4 Exterior exposed to weather but with protection by an adequate surface
coating
5 Test method
The adhesive shall be tested in accordance with EN 205:2016 and as follows:
a) bond-lines shall be tested according to their assigned durability class (see Table 1);
b) the tests shall be performed using the appropriate conditioning sequence given in Table 2;
c) the individual strength values τ in N/mm2 rounded to 0,1 N/mm2 and the mean value of the 20 test
(standards.iteh.ai)
pieces for each conditioning sequence shall be recorded. Results from tests in which failure
occurred in the wood at values below the specified minimum are invalid. Test pieces that are
twisted, bended or showing other irregularities SIST EN in204:2016
form are valid if they reach the requirements;
otherwise, or if visual examination shows that the adhesive was not correctly applied, the results
are invalid. All results, valid or invalid,795bb0f9c747/sist-en-204-2016
shall be reported. Explanation of the invalid values shall be
reported.
The standard atmosphere used as a control climate is either (20 ± 2) °C and (65 ± 5) %
relative humidity (RH), (20/65), or (23 ± 2) °C and (50 ± 5) % relative humidity (RH), (23/50).
6 Requirements
When tested in accordance with EN 205:2016 the mean strength of an adhesive shall conform to the
values shown in Table 2.
