Scope

This European Standard specifies a chamber method with three options of test chambers for the determination of the formaldehyde emission from wood­based panels in terms of the steadystate concentration in a climate chamber under defined conditions, which relate to typical conditions in real­life. This chamber method can also be applied to the estimation of formaldehyde concentrations under various conditions in practice, by the use of mathematical models.

Purpose

The revision is intended to align EN 717­1 with the provisions of the REACH restriction and the ECHA guideline for formaldehyde emission from wood­based panels.
