BS ISO 24336:2005

This standard BS ISO 24336:2005 Laminate floor coverings. Determination of thickness swelling after partial immersion in water is classified in these ICS categories:

• 97.150 Non-textile floor coverings

This International Standard specifies a test method for the determination of thickness swelling of laminate floor-covering elements after partial immersion in water. The testing is destructive and is mainly intended to evaluate the behaviour of the laminate floor-covering element in contact with water. Possible pre-attached soft backing material, sub-layers or any other material integrated at the underside of the floor-covering element are not included in the test and should therefore be removed before testing.
