This document specifies a method to determine the migration of substances from hardened cement based site-applied or site-formed materials (including pre-packaged mortars) into test waters after contact with the products. It also covers determination of migration from individual constituents of cement based products and materials (see Annexes A and B) and from associated non-cement based products for approval purposes (see Annex C).
Site-applied or site-formed cement based materials which cannot be cast as cubes or prisms e.g. some spray applied systems, fall in the scope of EN 14944−3 and not under this standard.
This document is applicable to site-applied or site-formed cement based materials intended to be used for the transport and storage of water intended for human consumption, including raw water used for the production of drinking water. It is also applicable to individual constituents of cement based products/materials and to associated non-cement based products/materials.
NOTE Tests with the specified test water will not necessarily be representative of materials used in different kinds of waters and especially very soft waters.
