in boiling water

Resistance to dry heat 8 A pan of hot glyceroltristearate at 180 0C (3560F ) is placed on the
(180 0C ) laminate and allowed to cool there for 20 min. No blisters of cracks ought
to occur on the surface. Slight change in glossiness is permitted.

Dimensional stability at 9 Total change after 24 hours at 70 0C and after 168 hours at 90-95 % RH.

Resistance to impact by 11 A spring –loaded bolt is shot at the surface.


small diameter ball

Resistance to impact by 12 Maximum drop height from a steel ball which can be achieved without
large diameter ball incurring visible surface cracking

Resistance to cracking 13 Laminate exposed to 800C heat for 20 hours.

Resistance to scratching 14 A weighted diamond needle scratches the surface.

Resistance to staining 15 Drop specific chemical on laminate with specified time and condition.
Slight change in glossiness is permitted.

Resistance to colour 16 Laminate exposed to daylight and compared to a blue wool scale 1-8 no.8
change in Xenon light being the most light stable.

Resistance to cigarette 17 Burning cigarette is placed on the test surface. Very slight brown
burns coloration permitted.

Formability 20 Test specimen is heated and formed.

Resistance to steam 23 Test surface subjected to water steam for 1 hour. Slight change in
glossiness permitted.
