The European Directive 89/106/EEC, which refers to con-struction products, intended to be incorporated in a per-manent manner in construction works (see note 1), was published more than twenty years ago but it is still not completely clear for many people, at least in some aspects of its application. In fact, however, the directive has been operative for less than ten years as a result of the gradual adoption of harmonized European standards (currently just over 400 out of 500 planned) and ETA (European Technical Approval) for the various types of products. But there is a significant innovation: within a couple of years this Directive will be whitdrawn and replaced by the new Regulation No. 305 (see article), recently published in the Official Journal of the European Union, which envisages a gradual transition between the two measures.Directive 89/106/EEC, although not belonging to those of the so-called “new approach”, it is designed to enable the free exchange of goods between Member States of the Eu-ropean Union (EU) and to provide users with products made in such way to satisfy the essential safety requirements (see note 2) applied to works that will incorporate such products. It’s the only European directive that allows the presumption of compliance only through the harmonized standards or ETAs.

In this context, on 10 February was held at the CATAS an interesting seminar on CE marking of these products, given by the architect Giancarlo Bedotti, a leading expert in the field, having worked for years at the European Commission and now CEN consultant for the building sector.It is not simple to reproduce this article all aspects addres-sed in the seminar due to the complexity of the matter. Here, however, we will summarize the main concepts that emer-ged during the presentation, largely drawn from the report of the speaker.

EUROPEAN FRAMEWORK (Scheme 1)Directive 89/106/EEC, also known as CPD, establishes the essential requirements (ER) to be met by buildings and ci-vil engineering works. The interpretative documents (ID), developed for each essential requirement, allow to define the mandates that the European Commission (EC) grants the European Standardization Organizations, CEN for har-monized standards and EOTA for the European Technical Approval.Referring to the levels of attestation of conformity (AC) pro-vided for Annex ZA of harmonized standards and ETAs, the manufacturer affixes the CE marking to its products.

ROADS FOR CE MARKING YOUR PRODUCTSAs shown in Scheme 2, the roads are three: the first is refer-red to the harmonized European standards, the other two are related to the issue of ETA that can be achieved in two ways:1) using the existing ETAG guides;2) a voluntary request by the manufacturer.In both cases the producer must contact an authorized body (AB) by a Member State to grant the ETA and then to a notified body (NB) which apply the procedures of attestation of con-formity (AC).

MEANING OF CE MARKINGThe CE marking of building products does not mean “con-formity” to anything but merely to state that the information accompanying the product was obtained in accordance with the provisions of the CPD and they shall be considered accu-rate and reliable.Since building products intended to be incorporated perma-nently in the works, they shall contribute to meet the safety requirements to the works themselves. In other words, a pro-duct is suitable for use when it permits to the work which is

intended to meet the applicable essential requirements.So the product is not safe or unsafe in themselves, depending on how it has built-in by the responsible people for the work: designers, manufacturers, installers, users, etc.The CE marking means that the product:- respect the provisions of the CPD, as defined in applicable ENs and ETAs;- was submitted to the relevant conformity assessment proce-dures contained in the CPD;- covers all applicable European directives and all the legal requirements existing in each Member State.

It’s allowed only to products covered by the harmonized Eu-ropean standards or by ETAs or, in the absence of these, by national standards recognized by the Commission to benefit from presumption of conformity.In conclusion, the CE marking is the passport to free move-ment within EU territory. Member States may not refuse the entry of products on the market, but may refuse their perfor-mance.

The CE marking of construction productsFranco Prete

Note 1The permanent incorporation of a product in the construction works means that:- its removal reduces the performance of the construction works;- demolition or replacement of the product shall be considered construction activities.The permanent incorporation is to be meant durable for the life of the product.

Note 2The six essential requirements according to Directive 89/106/EEC are:1) Mechanical resistance and stability2) Safety in case of fire3) Hygiene, health and the environment4) Safety in use5) Protection against noise6) Energy economy and heat retentionConsidered a normal maintenance of construction work, all requirements must be met for an economically reaso-nable working life (durability of performance characteristics).

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MARKING AND OTHER BRANDSThe CE marking replaces all mandatory national brands. No additional requirements may be imposed at the national level.A product may bear marks of volunteers if:- fulfill functions different from those of CE marking;- there is no confusion with the CE marking;- do not reduce the legibility and visibility of the CE marking.Trademarks volunteers can add value to the buyer if they offer plus of “quality” or whether they represent an additional ele-ment of legitimate competition in the market.

RESPONSIBLE PEOPLE FOR AFFIXING CE MARKINGThe manufacturer must affix the CE marking, whether establi-shed nell’EEA (European Economic Area) or his authorized re-presentative established in the EEA that becomes responsible before the law for compliance with all requirements applicable to the product. Not to be confused with the importer who can market the product without any legal representation by the manufacturer.

If the product is manufactured in a third Country, it’s a duty of the importer to affix the CE marking before the product is placed on the market; he must demonstrate that the imported products are “in order” acquiring the documents on the fac-tory production control (FPC) and tests to assess the perfor-mance, tests to be carried out by Notified Bodies.The CE marking must be affixed on the product itself, on its packaging or on the accompanying commercial documents.

The meeting ended with many questions from the large au-dience, there are signs that this matter is difficult to under-stand in an immediate view of the many facets that it presents. The impression is that it will take long before the CE will be-come a familiar topic for all professionals. The hope is that the new regulation will make a key contribution in this direction.

The new European regulationFranco Prete

On April 4, 2011 it has been published in the Official Journal of the European Union Regulation No. 305/2011 (CPR) which came into force in late April without any act of transposition by Member States therefore it has the force of law.The new regulation redefines the conditions for the pla-cing on the market of construction products by establi-shing harmonized rules for describing the performance of these products in relation to their essential characteri-stics, and for the use of the CE marking on the products in question.Directive 89/106/EEC (CPD) is repealed by the Regulation however some measures will apply only from 1st July 2013 and, in any case, the construction products placed on the market before this date will be deemed to comply even if handled according to procedures of the CPD.

Why the need to replace the old directive?Over the years the need of clarity and simpler approach has arouse, especially in relation to small and medium companies that often do not make products in large quantities. It’s also showed the need to increase the credibility of the system by increasing harmonization of procedures and criteria for the designation of bodies by the competent authorities to improve coordination and monitoring mechanisms of the market.This has resulted, as well as in a more precise termino-logy of topics, also in:

• simplified measures for the CE marking in order to reduce costs for SMEs and microenterprises in the case of products that do not affect safety;• specific measures to simplify the products individually manufactured or in a building site;• tools to facilitate the sharing of the test results obtained by others and the transfer of the test results by casca-ding, the upstream stages of production to those of downstream process.Greater clarity is also done on the obligations of econo-mic operators (manufacturers, authorized representati-ves, importers and distributors) and documentation to be prepared (statement of performance, CE marking).On the other side, the regulation places greater empha-sis on issues related to quality system and in particular the procedures to ensure that the production of series retains the declared performances: process control, pe-riodic tests on samples, investigating complaints, tracea-bility, etc.

In order to simplify it, harmonized standards should, wherever possible:• provide less costly methods of evidence (for example, calculations and descriptive methods) to evaluate pro-duct performance in relation to their essential features;• provide that the factory production control (FPC) ad-dresses the specific conditions of the process of manu-facturing the product;

The new European regulation

BASIC REQUIREMENTS OF CONSTRUCTION WORKS IN THE NEW REGULATION

1) Mechanical resistance and stability2) Safety in case of fire3) Hygiene, health and the environment4) Safety and accessibility in use5) Protection against noise6) Energy economy and heat retention7) Sustainable use of natural resources

Requirement number 7 has been added by regulation.

• consider the introduction of technical classes to facilitate the use of the term “classification of products without testing”.

Finally point out that among the various obligations im-posed on Member States, the Regulation requires also:• to organize and carry out monitoring of the market;• to designate contact points to which ask in order to get within 15 working days, free and in a clear and easily un-derstandable information on provisions in its territory to satisfy the basic requirements of building works applica-ble to the intended use of each construction product.It is opinion of the writer that these tasks, while laudable

for its objectives, which are useful for traders and under-pin the credibility of the system appear to be very am-bitious and difficult to implement, at least in Italy in the terms set by the Regulation

The topics covered by the regulation are so vast that a detailed explanation of all aspects would require many pages. For the time being we simply point out the main changes, we will be back to the matter as soon as possi-ble when application procedures will be published.

Fire reaction tests according to European standards performed by CATAS Franco PreteCATAS is equipped to carry out fire reaction tests on floo-rings in reference to the classification standard EN 13501 - 1.

The testing standards are EN ISO 11925-2 “Test using a single flame” and EN ISO 9239-1 “Test with the radiant pa-nel” allow to classify floorings such as, for example, those

in wood according to EN 14342 and resilient floor co-verings (linoleum, cork, rubber, textiles, laminates, etc.) according to EN 14041.

For these types of floors there is already the duty of CE marking being called by the harmonized standards whose coexistence period has already expired. Notified Bodies must carry out the tests for the CE marking in relation to the individual product standards. At the mo-ment CATAS can carry out orientation tests only since it cannnot operate as a Notified Body (CATAS is a Notified Laboratory in respect to EN 14342 for other types of tests, namely: formaldehyde and pentachlorophenol).

According to EN 13501-1, the provision classes for floo-rings and interior finishing are:

Fire reaction tests according to European standards performed by CATASFranco Prete

There are significant differences between the test me-thods in order to CE marking and the Italian test methods used until recently.

The test method described in EN ISO 11925-2:2010 “Igni-tability of products subjected to direct impingement of fla-me” is designed to assess the ignitability of building pro-ducts by applying a small flame on a specimen arranged vertically. This method provides for different procedures depending on the type of product to be tested and it is de-cisive for the attribution of Euroclasses Bfl, Cfl, Dfl and Efl.

Differences between the UNI 8457 and EN ISO 11925-2In the case of the small flame test method, although by a simple observation the two test chambers and related torches seem substantially similar, in fact the test result is not comparable because in the case of EN ISO 11925-2 a filter paper is used on the bottom of the chamber provi-ding an assessment of value given or less from power on the card when the material is dripping. Another substantial difference is the application of the ignition flame to the edge of the specimen when such an event can occur in reality.

The test method described in EN ISO 9239-1:2010 “De-termination of the burning behavior using a radiant heat source” is intended to evaluate the critical heat flux me-asured at the end of the propagation of the flame front on a horizontal surface of the floor specimen or after 30 minutes of testing time. This is one of the tests needed to

assign Euroclasses A2fl, Bfl, Cfl and Dfl.

Differences between the UNI 9174 and EN ISO 9239-1

In the case of fire reaction test using a radiant panel, the

difference between European and Italian test become

enormous, from the radiant panel configuration that is po-

sitioned above the specimen at different angles: 90° to

horizontal axis in the case of the Italian method, 30° to

the horizontal axis in the case of the European method. It

follows that the intensity of heat radiation is very different

between the two radiant panels.

Even the ignition flames are fundamentally different: the

Italian standard provides for a 12 cm high single flame

while the European standard requires a burner consisting

of as many as 35 flames in two rows whose height must

be between 6 and 12 cm.

Another key point of distinction is due to the fact that the

European test involves measuring the opacity of smoke

emitted from the specimen during the test.

These and other differences allow us to affirm that it is not

possible to make a comparison between the two methods

without testing.

Then, in place of the known Italian classes 0 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 and 5, it has been introduced a classification system more articulated that provides even the assessment of the opacity of smoke (s1 or s2), parameter ignored by Ita-lian regulations.The tests that CATAS is able to carry out allow to assign all classes except A1fl and A2fl, limited to non-combustible materials and those almost non-combustibler espectively.

Franco BulianHow to measure the quality of coated surfaces

The market situationThe present situation of the industrial finishing sector is ra-ther complex being characterized both by the need to redu-ce the use of coating materials with a high solvent content and by the conjuncture of the market that reduces orders and consequently the number of batches produced.Although the costs are significantly impacting on the coa-ting systems that, in general, are more “poor”, characterized by a lower number of coats than in the past, with reduced thickness and wider use of impregnated paper as systems to homogenize the substrate surface.Another factor contributing to the complexity of the market is the frequent request for customization of the finished pro-duct in terms of color and gloss.All the factors outlined above are in fact changing the sce-nario of industrial finishing with the use of different coating systems both in terms of products and of application pro-cedures.These new production methods have a decisive impact on

the quality of finished products. On the other hand, the ex-pectations of the final user, especially young consumers, are rapidly changing with greater attention to the functionality of the finished product and less to its appearance with a tendency to prefer essential and simple styles.One of the needs that emerge as a result of the scenario described above is to determine when a coated surface of a door, a cabinet, flooring or other element for interior use is suitable to the market needs. The new finishes, either by the type of coating used, either by the simplifying the coating systems described above may in fact not meet the expecta-tions of the end user also in consequence of the increased attention towards the technical performance of purchased products.

The use of technical standardsHaving evaluated the matter presented above, it is possible to consider that there are many standards that can be used to verify the performance of a coated surface in terms of

FINISHED PRODUCT REFERENCE STANDARD NOTE

Wood for exterior use

UNI EN 927-2 Paints and varnishes - Coating

materials and coating systems for exterior wood - Part 2: Performance

specification

This European standard gives the specifica-tions for coating systems applied to different end use products, like windows, claddings,

garden furniture, etc. grouped into three classes (Stable, Semi-stable and Non stable

products).

Domestic Furniture

UNI 11216 Domestic furniture - Performance

specifications of coated wood based surfaces

This Italian standard considers different specifications for: kitchens, bathrooms and

other furniture elements (bedrooms and dining rooms). Inside each class, the standard consi-ders different performance levels for horizontal

and vertical surfaces.

Doors, door jambs, walls, partitions etc,

UNICHIM MU 2009 Minimum requirements of coated

surfaces of: doors, doorjambs, walls, etc, made of wood for domestic use

in indoor environments

This Italian method establishes the minimum requirements for the coated surfaces of wood based elements for interior use different from furniture. It considers various limits according

to the expected end-use.

Parquet Italian project (UNI-UNICHIM)

A draft of an Italian standard has been pre-pared considering, also in this case, different “classes” according to the expected final use of the finished flooring (severe, medium, soft).

resistance to various chemical and physical agents that can degrade it, such as: scratches, contact with liquid substances, heat, light, and other.What is still not fully established, however, is the performance level that coated surfaces should achieve in order to be con-sidered “conforming” or at least “fit for the pupose” to market needs.The standards cited above are almost always pure test me-thods, and therefore represent the detailed operating instruc-tions for lab technicians who apply them. However their value and their importance is not negligible, considering the perspective in which they were prepared, as they offer to the market at least two benefits. The first is the standardisation of procedures that makes possible compari-sons based on the same criteria. The second equally impor-tant objective is to qualify a product by a “numeric value” pro-viding a performance level achieved.The difference in use or not of standards can be summarized with the following messages derived from the technical speci-fications of two similar products for interior use:- Case 1: “surface with excellent resistance to scratching”- Case 2 “surface with a scratch resistance of 0.7 N according to UNI 9428.It is evident that in the first case there is no objective informa-tion while in the second a measurement and a reference to an Italian standard are two clear and objective factors.The problem is to know how to interpret these numbers that would otherwise loose all their value in favor of purely commer-cial messages as the first mentioned above which, apparently, is more direct and reassuring containing an opinion that the final user is not able to issue alone, despite feeling the need.

The points made above are a common basis on which also the standardization bodies are moving both at national and at international level.

How to measure the quality of coated surfacesThere are presently different standards defining the minimum requirements for the coated surfaces of wood-based pro-ducts, taking into account specific market sectors.It ‘s also interesting to note that these standards are not ge-neric, taking into account not only a certain type of finished product, but also its specific end use and establishing, conse-quently, different requirement in each case.The following table shows the requirements standards for coated surfaces. The single standards can be directly consi-dered in order to directly evaluate the specification for each sector or finished product.The above mentioned standards are intended to be an impor-tant guide for formulators, users and end users both in trade and in case of possible disputes, never desirable, but also fre-quent in this sector.Standards thus represent the state of the art to which produ-cers and users should aim. Standards may also serve to point out that a certain performance expectation are not reached because it is favored a different quality of the finish product such as, for example, its appearance.In any case it is important that the choice is made consciously and agreed on an objective basis.

Andrea GiavonPublic tenders

The subject of the public tender requirements has always been much debated by all those involved. Since the early eighties, in Italy it has felt the need to be sitting around a table in order to find a “common thread” that tied the interests of all. Without boring the reader (which as we all now be in a hurry) with the history of this type of documents (both in their technical part, that the charges / administrative) include only those published by PGS (Provveditorato Generale dello Stato) and drawn with the fundamental support of Furniture Technical Committee of UNI (Italian Standardization Body), down to more than twenty years later with that issued by CONSIP for furni-ture purchasing by public offices via internet.We all were eyewitnesses and even players of the chan-ges that have occurred in this area and of the changing the furniture industry from 2008 to today.

What has happened and what is still happening requires new approaches to the subject, reasonable, pragmatic and sometimes even courageously. When in hard times like these, there is the awareness of this urgent need for concreteness and immediacy of the relationship among the producer, buyers and users, then there are the boundary conditions to write shared rules.

Over the last three months of last year, at the invitation of the President of ANCI FVG and Friuli Venezia Giulia Region, the Federlegno Triveneto has taken this oppor-tunity and has formed a working group composed of by FLA Triveneto, CATAS, Monfalcone Municipality, Udine Municipality, representatives of the wood furniture sec-tor of the Confindustria of provinces in the region and ASDI Livenza (Pordenone)The purpose of this working group was to produce in record time (by end of year) and a general outline of the technical parts of public tenders for furniture. Another important goal was also to shift the axis of the scale in a decisive manner towards the safety and per-formance of the furniture, in other words towards to the “quality” of the product.

During the first meeting, the sensitive issue of the types of furniture to deal with was carefully addressed. We want to remind that Municipalities, especially if of a cer-tain size, deal with a wide range of services in which furniture is involved, ranging from kindergartens to the homes for the elderly.The discussion has arisen was very interesting becau-se it allowed to understand the complexity of the issues that the public authority is faced every day. At the end of

a remarkable job of questions to the representatives of the cities present and attentive listening, it was agreed to start with furniture related to schools kindergarten, ele-mentary and middle ones, libraries, office and lockers for both schools and staff. With regard to office furnitu-re, without reinventing the wheel (the times do not allow this any more!), the documents drafted by the technical committee of Assufficio were taken as reference. The re-maining chapters have been prepared following these principles: an accurate definition of the main pieces of furniture, a shared set of technical requirements and ap-plicable standards that beside the indispensable safety of the product will also give a balanced performance and durability. In some cases, also the latest standard deve-lopments, especially in the case of children furniture) are taken into account even not yet officially published.Of great importance and is also the evaluation grid of the characteristics which have companies that compete with the contract. Severe yes, as we said at the begin-ning, but intended to a redevelopment of producers.

It is not the case now going into the technical specifi-cations, which however will soon be published, we can say is that they are, hopefully, a simplification of the re-quirements expected by the public offices based on UNI and EN standards in force without the ambiguities that we find very often in the drafting of specifications that companies and municipalities show us.The thing that I think was unique in the experience of this working group which is perhaps for the first time in ye-ars, buyers, producers, and those that can translate into written agreement (tender specifications and standards) subjects we shared sit around a table and with honesty, frankness and competence come together and produce what I like to call a good STARTING POINT. And all this has happened here in Friuli Venezia Giulia, not on the moon or the Neverland.

It is now essential that these tools are used to improve them but most of all to create an objective way of rela-ting to the purchases, in other words to grow a “culture” that takes into account importance of the complexity of the relationship among public offices, services provided, users, smart suppliers and of the predictable benefits in the medium and long term.

The new version of EN 527-1 “Office furniture - Work tables and desks - Part 1: Dimensions”

The new version of EN 527-1 has been published in May. This

standard specifies the dimensions of the tables and desks

used in offices, as workstations .

The new version of the standard has replaced the existing: EN

527-1:2000.

In practice EN 527-1 is closely related,to EN 527-2 ““me-

chanical safety requirements” and EN 527-3 test methods for

determining the stability and the mechanical strength of the

structure” f or tables and desks. Also these t two standard will

be revised soon.

In Italy today the successful completion of tests prescribed

by the EN 527-1:2011, EN 527-2:2002, EN 527-3:2003 on

the same sample with a desk, in the defined sequence and

the fulfillment of the requirements contained in the UNI UNI

11190:2006 and 11191:2006, (relating to tests on finishes)

is one way to demostrate compliance with the provisions of

D.Lgs 81:2008.

The UNI 11190:2006, UNI 11191:2006 refers to test methods

described in EN 13721:2004 (assessment of the surface re-

flectance) and EN 13722:2004 (assessment of surface gloss).

After this introduction, which should clarify that the 527-1 has

to be considered as one of the links in the chain of evidence

to which the desk is subjected to a complete verification of the

finished product, we can look at the standard in deep.

EN 527-1:2011 reports dimension requirements in a table and

a in series of drawings that can be divided into three areas:

the size of the working surface, its height and the legroom.

The parameters measured are: the height of the working sur-

face and its minimum depth, the thickness of the worktop at

different depths, the minimum legroom dimensions, including

dimensions requirements for clearamce for knees and feet.

The dimensions to be met for each of the above parameters

depend on the characteristics of the desk. The latter fact al-

lows the classification of the table in a certain category speci-

fic dimensional values of reference. There are two classifica-

tion criteria: the first is based on the position that the person

takes when using the table, then: jsitting, standing, or both, in

the case of a work activity involves these two positions.

The second criterion of classification defines the desks as “ful-

ly adjustable” (type A); “fully selectable” (type B); “fixed height”

(type C); “limited adjustable or selectable limited” (Type D). The

term “fully” identified a wide range of adjustment while “limi-

ted” indicates a limited, both the rule determine the minimum

dimensional values. A description of each type is reported

below:

Type “A”: the work surface that can be adjusted by the user

during use to any height of a wide range of adjustment.

Type “B”: work surface that can be adjusted at installation to

defined intervals of a wide range of adjustment.

Type “C”: desk whose work surface has fixed height.

Type “D”: work surface that can be adjusted at installation or

by the user during use to any height or at defined intervals of

a limited range of adjustment.

The results of the first tests carried out by our lab according to

FprEN 527-1:2010 shows that the most difficult requirements

to be met are those related to the thickness of the work top

which provide reference values at different depths and vary

depending on the type of desk. These measurements include

the components of the table that support the plan or which are

mounted, for example, the structural beam, the cable ducts,

strengthening components of the work top, or light drawers.

The position of modesty panelt,should be carefully considered

because it can interfere with the legroom.

There are many differences between the new version of the

standard and the previous one; the following summarizes the

main changes:

• The introduction of maximum values for the work top

thickness at different depths.

• Changing the size of the legroom.

• The increase of the height of work surfaces of the fixed de-

sks.

• The depth of the working surface, measured at the narro-

west portion thereof, must comply with the minimum va-

lue is determined in the case of shaped and linear desk.

In any particular situation is a reduction of the minimum

to be met only with a fixed height for desks, for example,

must be used with flat screens of size up to 17 inches,

must not be placed against the wall or used by two peo-

ple sits facing each other. Information on these limitations

in the use must be provided with the product.

• The introduction of the dimensional values of reference for

workstations “standing” or “sit / standing (not in the pre-

vious version of the standard).

The document contains a useful informative annex that ex-

plains the general ergonomic principles to which reference

was made to draw up the new version of the standard, inclu-

ding anthropometric data related to working in a sitting posi-

tion and standing.

Hygiene is a major concern in today´s society, and protection of commodities from microbial contamination in hospi-tals, public places, or at home is highly valued by consumers.In 2008 the U.S. Environmental Protec-tion Agency registered five copper-con-taining alloy products with a claim that copper “kills 99.9% of bacteria within two hours”. Such claim was supported by the finding that when exposed to an environment with a high microbiological burden, objects (handrails, door knobs, call buttons, taps) made of such copper alloys yielded a much lower microbial contamination than other materials.The potential of active surfaces to elimi-nate germs after a short contact period is particularly attractive, because of the wide range of possible applications,

such as floorings, walls, furniture, and objects destinated to be manipulated by many users. Hence the search for compounds and molecules that can be incorporated into different materials to prevent the proliferation of harmful mi-croorganisms.Silver has been known for centuries to have antiseptic properties. The anti-bacterial action of silver is dependent on the silver ion. The effectiveness of silver compounds as antiseptic is based on the ability of the biologically active sil-ver ion (Ag+) to irreversibly damage key enzyme systems in the cell membranes of pathogens. Silver-based antimicro-bials use an ion exchange mechanism that slowly releases silver ions. thus pro-viding a long-lasting effectiveness.Triclosan inhibits the growth of micro-organisms such as algae and bacteria by using an electro-chemical mode of action to penetrate and disrupt their cell walls. When the cell walls are penetra-ted, leakage of metabolites occurs and other cell functions are disabled, there-

by preventing the micro-organism from functioning or reproducing.Isothiazolinone-based antimicrobials

have broad spectrum action on micro-organisms by interacting and oxidizing accessible cellular thiols.Zinc pyrithione-based antimicrobials inhibit the growth of fungi, yeast, mold and bacteria. It is used in paints and sealants as an antifouling agent. These antimicrobials depolarize membrane electropotential and inhibit fungal and bacterial substrate transport processes.Titanium dioxide can kill bacteria af-ter activation with UV light. When used in coatings formulations titanium dioxi-de can reduce the contamination from organic subsctances through fotoca-talysis, that is oxidation reactions acti-vated by light.While antimicrobial agents have been used traditionally to preserve products from biodeterioration and to extend their service life, their use as a means to actively contrast harbouring and prolife-ration of germs on the surface of com-modities is fairly recent. In fact, the first international standard designed to as-

sess the antibacterial efficacy of a surfa-ce, ISO 22196:2007 “Plastics - Measure-ment of antibacterial activity on plastics surfaces”, was published only in 2007, inheriting the test methodology already developed in 2000 with the Japanese

Industrial Standard JIS Z 2801:2000 “Antimicrobial products. Test for antimi-crobial activity and efficacy”. The earlier publication of the JIS standard is a sign of the long-established care for hygie-ne in the Japanese lifestyle, and of their attention to the new technologies availa-ble to improve hygiene conditions.But how do these test methods (ISO and JIS) assess the antibacterial effica-cy of a surface?Basically, the test surface and the re-ference control surface are challenged with a bacterial suspension of known cell density, and after a given time of incubation under controlled conditions, the surfaces are rinsed with a neutrali-zer solution. This rinse is serially diluted for plate count of viable cells (cfu, colo-ny forming unit). The ratio between the viable cells recovered from the referen-

ce surface and those recovered from the test surface, both expressed as log10

function, represents the antibacterial activity of the surface. Under valid test conditions, this value (R) will range from 0 (no antibacterial activity) to close to 5 (very high antibacterial activity). Due to possible variations, within a given range, of the initial inoculum density, the upper limit cannot be defined. The interpretation of the test results is often difficult for the users, who might be more familiar with the more common expression of bactericidal activity as percentage of killing: 99% of bacteria killed sounds much more effective than R= 2! But in fact is the same thing. The reader should be warned that, when de-aling with bactericidal activity expressed as percentage of bacteria killed, the de-cimal numbers count a lot and should be represented. 99% means that 1 out of 100 bacteria survived; but 99,9% means that only 1 out of 1000 survived, which is a more reassuring figure.

Il CATAS tra internazionalizzazione,innovazione e realtà quotidiana

To give a practical example of how to compare results expressed as R with % killing, let’s consider these two cases:

a. 2,3x105 cfu recovered from the refe-rence surface and 380 cfu recovered from the test surface

R=log10 (2,3x105/380) = 2,78

% killing = (2,3x105-380)/ 2,3x105x100 = 99,83

b. 2,3x105 cfu recovered from the refe-rence surface and 38 cfu recovered from the test surface

R=log10 (2,3x105/38) = 3,78

% killing = (2,3x105-38)/ 2,3x105x100 = 99,98

As a matter of fact, calculations on the log scale provide an expanded scale where small differences are better ap-preciated.But apart from the difficulty to interpret the numbers and decide whether the result is promising or not, the main pro-blem comes from the fact that the stan-dard does not specify the R value to be regarded as a safe level of antibacterial activity. For disinfectants, intended as li-quid products used to remove microbial contaminants from the surfaces, this va-lue is commonly fixed to 5 (log 10 reduc-

tion) in the test methods designed to as-sess their performance. But in the case of “antibacterial surfaces”, this value is not given. In theory, any result above

R=0 indicates that the test surface has some antibacterial efficacy; in practice, and based on our laboratory experien-ce with these tests, R values from 1,8 to 5 and above can be obtained with polymer materials, including plastics and coatings, and could be considered significant.Another drawback of these methods is that they do not suggest a possible ageing procedure of the test material, in

order to verify if the antibacterial efficacy is stable over time and when the surfa-ce is stressed in various ways: washing, exposure to light, changing temperatu-res, contact with chemicals, etc. This is obviously a concern for manufacturers, especially if they want to offer a warranty on their product.A last warning should be posed on how test reports issued by laboratories are used by manufacturers to certify their antibacterial products. The test report must include some essential information such as:1 - the reference to the test method used2 - the unit used to express the test reults3 - a clear description of the test object

Without these informations, it is im-possible for the user to compare the performance of different products and to choose which one is suitable for the

intended application.It is also important to remember that results obtained with a certain test me-thod refer to the specified experimental conditions used, and do not reflect the antibacterial activity under other cir-cumstances where a variety of factors, such as temperature, humidity, different bacterial species, nutrient conditions etc., have to be consider.

WOOD. Equilibrium moisture content and time of conditioning

CATAS in collaboration with one Italian leader in the field of instruments for monitoring the managing of drying systems and instruments for measuring the moisture content of wood, is in a position to assess the rate at which a wood species reaches a equilibrium moisturecontent with the environment in which it is present.

We know that wood is composed in part of water, and also that the ratio between ist weight and that of anhydrous (wi-thout water) wood indicates the moisture content.Water in fresh wood is present in the form of free water, in cell lumens, and bound water in cell walls. The first is fastly relea-sed and can not be summed up by the wood if not for direct diving into water. The second, however, is conditioned by the climate in which the wood is placed: its value may decrease but can also increase. The upper limit for the the presence of bound water is called the fiber saturation point; it is a diffe-rent value for each species but conventionally tipical values range between 28% and 30% moisture content. Associated with this acquisition or release of moisture from wood, depen-ding on temperature and relative humidity of the air (climate) in which it is placed, are the movements which it is subject: swelling and shrinkage.

The typical concept of considering the wood as an “alive” ma-terial has to do with this aspect, namely the ability to increase or decrease its size in relation to variations in moisture content.In principle this is not always true, but only when its moisture content is below the saturation point.Moisture variations cuould be in principle a negligile parame-ter, but the consequent dimensional change (swelling or shrin-

kage) of the product made of wood, can represent a critical behaviour of this material. How many times have we seen be-ams with deep and long cracks, cracked floors, detachment of chairs elements, bending of doors ... often this is due to moisture.

Knowing the final conditions in which a product made of wood is used, it is possible to identify the suitable moisture content for that use thanks to bibliographyc data. The humi-dity the wood and all products derived from plywood, particle board, MDF, etc.) must have to be in equilibrium, are conside-red “average values” because each species and wood-based material will undergo to a specific equilibrium value.We must also consider that the equilibrium moisture content is reached fastly only on the surface, but requires considera-ble time to be the same in the whole thickness. The moisture content in equilibrium with the surrounding climate, therefore, would be achieved only after a much longer time than the lar-ger object when those conditions are constant.

This is the equilibrium moisture (EMC - equilibrium moisture content): ie the value of moisture content at which the wood does not release or assume moisture in a given climate.

The following table shows the approximate values of moistu-re equilibrium as reported in the American standard ASTM D4933-99 (updated in 2010). It is recommended that these values are to be considered as approximate values as avera-ged over different species. For example it is known that wood species containing high levels of extractives, can even reach moisture contents very different from those reported.

On this basis, it is then fundamental to consider the rate of conditioning, ie the time requested by a wood species to reach the moisture equilibrium throughout its thickness, with the climate defined.Very often some of the defects that are observed in the fini-shed products (eg, splits, cracks, etc..) may be caused by a too fast adaptation to the surrounding climate (ie wet item was added to a dry environment).

To measure this parameter CATAS has set up a system of sensors, connected to a device for recording and storing data, which allow continuous monitoring of wood samples that are located in areas with constant and controlled envi-ronment (room conditions).

Controlled environments available today, are the most com-monly cited by the European and international standards ie 20 ± 2 ° C and 65 ± 5% rh - 23 ± 2 ° C and 50 ± 5% rh. - 23 ± 2 ° C and 90 ± 5% rh. - 20 ± 2 ° C and 35 ± 5% rh. men-tioned briefly with 20/65, 23/50, 23/90 and 20/35.

The features of the system is that you can assign to a sin-gle wood species, a modified wood (heat-treated, steamed, acid – treated or...) to a material made of wood its own cha-racteristic conditioning rate to specific climates and there-fore know the degree of risk of swelling or shrinkage due to the peculiarities of the species.Reported below are the time / humidity graphs of four wood species with the following size: 20 mm, width 60 mm, length 300 mm. The probes were inserted in the center of the sur-face of the sample and down to mid-thickness so it can be

assumed that the moisture content found, when constant for several hours or days, is that of the entire sample.Graph I shows the adaptation of the wooden boards in an atmosphere of 20 ± 2 ° C and 65 ± 5% R.H. and humidity fluctuations.

Considerations:• The graph confirms that wood species within the same climate, do not reach the same moisture content.• species with more jagged the line are more sensitive to the slightest change in climate,For example, the species described by the red curve has a

19

lower equilibrium moisture content than the green one, but its sensitivity is far more greater.

The graphs II and III show the humidity in the first 24 and 72 hours moving from a climate 20 ° C - 65% RH to a climate of 23 ° C and 90% R.H. and the rate of water absorption.

Considerations:• species adapt to climate at different rates;• it can be assumed that the rates is not related to the density of the species;• it can be assumed that the rates is not affected by the fact that the wood is hardwood or softwood;• for each wood species shows the time to reach the pruden-tial humidity (20%) to prevent fungal decay, but in any case, unless contradicted, hardly a species exceeds 20% moisture if not exposed to rain, or otherwise humidity above 90% rh for an long period.

Graph IV shows how a surface finish applied on the very

same wood specie , can influence the relationship with the ambient climatic conditions moving from a climate 20 ° C - 65% RH to a climate of 23 ° C and 35% R.H.

Considerations:• Within the same wood specie, the type of surface finishes largely influence the relationship with the ambient conditions;• The system can help in the selection of surface finish depen-ding on the final product, or among different types of finishes.

Conclusion:

The above test results are the result of an experiment with defined sample dimensions and so they are not to be consi-dered as absolute, they are to be consdiered as indicative and comparative for the sample tested.Despite these limitations and the limited number of data, the following can be noted:1. Different wood species have different equilibrium moisture content .2. The system provides information on the sensitivity of the species, the rate of exchange humidity between wood and the ambient conditionsFurther testing can objectively evaluate the effect of stabiliza-tion treatments of wood after modification (eg, heat-treated, acid treated etc..) providing objective assessments.

Sources of indoor air pollution in offices Stefano Rigonat

Printers, copiers, fax machines are now indispensable tools for the daily job of every office. Almost all of these devices use “toner”, a sort of ink for printing text and images, being made up of a mixture of particles of coal, iron oxides and resins. The size of the toner particles are usually around 8 micron, but in some cases may be even lower.

When in use, the equipment using the toner particles can release in the air a very small particle that are cur-rently the subject of special attention by some agencies of health and safety at workplaces.The airborne dust may in fact create serious health pro-blems especially because they could become persistent in biological liquids and tissues. In addition to dust, pho-tocopiers and printers may also emit small amounts of volatile organic compounds and ozone, pollutants that at certain concentrations can cause acute or chronic di-seases of the respiratory.

SUVA, an independent company under public law that insures approximately 115,000 companies, 2 million workers against accidents and occupational diseases, quotes: “The toner dust emitted from laser printers and copiers can cause problems especially in those with hypersensitive mucous membranes in the upper and lo-wer respiratory”.

Recently this topic came to the fore following a survey conducted by the television program “Le Iene” of Italy

1 channel.The sources considered that the printers and faxes as possible sources of indoor pollution are increasing even though there is no real alarm about these issues since there is no official position from public health and safety bodies.On the website of Suva is possible to find a set of in-structions to follow in the office to minimize exposure to these dusts.

In addition, under certain conditions, may possibly be appropriate to implement an analytical control protocol of the exposure of the workers which work close to prin-ters copiers in order to assess the quality and quantity of dust in the workplace derived only to the use of printing devices.It may also be useful to monitor the volatile organic compounds and ozone by passive sampling systems, located in the room under investigation for a period of at least one week in order to build up sufficient concentra-tions detectable by instruments commonly used for this purpose.

Title WOOD COATINGS. THEORY AND PRACTICE Authors Franco Bulian and Jon Graystone Purchase Specialised bookstores - Language English Internet web sites: www.elsevier.com,Editor Elsevier www.amazon.com

Wood Coatings, written by Franco Bulian (CATAS) and Jon Graystone (Paint Research Association) addresses the factors responsible for the performance of wood coatings in both domestic and industrial situations. The term ‘wood coatings’ covers a broad range of products including stains, varnishes, paints and supporting ancillary products that may be used indoors or outdoors. Techniques for coating wood go back many centuries but in recent decades there has been a move towards more environmentally-friendly materials, for example, the use of water-borne rather than solvent-borne chemicals. A major objective of Wood Coatings is to explain the underlying factors that influence selection, application and general operational issues. Basic information on the chemistry and technology of coatings is included for the benefit of students and laboratory technicians. Additio-nally, the book includes individual chapters of interest to architects, specifiers, and industrial users.
