5. Kirsten Wittenberg Dr. Guido Hora Preparation of the Test Body  Coating of the test bodies acc. to the instructions of the manufacturer  Depositing in a wet condition in the prescribed climate  Bonding of 7 test dollies of each test body before testing  After completion of drying a cut of approx. 0,3 mm is made around the dollies  Approx. 0,5 ml of deionised water is deposited into the ring groove  After a penetration of 2 hours the test is carried out March 15/16, 2004 CEN/TC/139/WG2/N349

11. Kirsten Wittenberg Dr. Guido Hora Results  Beech Extremely good adhesion properties Relative homogeneous substrate After 2 hours exposure to liquid the sample centre has not been moisturised enough  Beech Plywood The adhesion properties are comparable to pine wood Relative homogeneous substrate The test can already be carried out after 1 hour  Pine Poor adhesion properties Inhomogeneous substrate and therefore low reproducibility March 15/16, 2004 CEN/TC/139/WG2/N349
