EN 12003:2008 (E)
1 Scope
This European Standard specifies the test method to be used to determine the shear adhesion strength of
reaction resin ceramic tile adhesives.
This European Standard is applicable to all reaction resin ceramic tile adhesives for internal and external tile
installations on floors and walls.
This European Standard does not contain performance requirements or recommendations for the design and
installation of ceramic tiles.
NOTE Ceramic tile adhesives can also be used for other kinds of tiles (natural and agglomerated stones, etc.), where
these do not adversely affect the stones.
This European Standard can involve hazardous materials and operations. Persons using this European
Standard should be familiar with normal laboratory practice. This European Standard does not purport to
address all the safety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish
appropriate safety and health practices and to ensure compliance with any European and national regulatory
conditions.

7 Test methods
7.1 Mixing of adhesive
Mix the adhesive in accordance with the adhesive manufacturer's instructions.
7.2 Preparation of test pieces
The test pieces shall be prepared with type V2 tiles.
Draw a straight line on one tile 6 mm from the tile edge. (To serve as a guide in overlapping the tiles as
explained below).
Place the template (see 6.1) over the back of the standard test tile. Trowel sufficient adhesive across the
template and then screed clean so as to neatly and completely fill the holes in the template. Carefully remove
the template vertically.
Insert spacer rods 0,8 mm thick (see 6.2) at each corner of the tile, approximately 20 mm into the test
specimen.
After 2 min place a second standard test tile over the coated tile, offset to provide an overlap between tiles of
6 mm, using the previously scribed line as a guide and ensuring that the edges of the tiles are parallel.
Place the test pieces on a plane surface and carefully load with (70 ± 0,15) N for 3 min. Carefully remove the
spacer rods, without disturbing the relative position of the tiles in the test pieces. A total of ten test pieces is
required per conditioning.
8
EN 12003:2008 (E)
Condition the test pieces in the standard test conditions for 7 days and then according to the test requirements.
7.3 Initial shear adhesion strength
Place the test pieces in the shear test jig (see 6.5) and apply a shear force by moving the crosshead at a
speed of 5 mm/min until failure occurs.
Report the results in Newton.
7.4 Shear adhesion strength after water immersion
Immerse the ten test pieces in water at (23 ± 2)° C for 21 days. Remove the test pieces, wipe with a cloth and
test them as described in 7.3.
Report the results in Newton.
7.5 Shear adhesion strength after thermal shock
Place the ten test pieces in a water bath maintained at (23 ± 2)° C for 30 min and then in a 100°C waterbath
for a further 30 min.
Repeat the cycle for a total of four times and then place the test pieces in the (23 ± 2)° C bath for
approximately 30 min for cooling.
Remove each test piece from the water, wipe off the excess water and test as described in 7.3.
Report the result in Newton.
8 Evaluation and expression of results
Divide the individual values, in N, by the conventional area (1660 mm2) of adhesive contact.
Determine the shear adhesion strength in the following way:
 determine the mean of ten values;
 discard the values falling out of the range of ± 20% from the mean value;
 if five or more values remain, determine the new mean value;
 if less than five values remain, repeat the test.
9 Test report
The test report shall provide the following information:
a) name, number and issue of this European Standard;
b) place, date and time of sampling;
c) type of adhesive, commercial designation and manufacturer;
d) identification of test sample;
9
EN 12003:2008 (E)
e) handling and storage of samples before testing;
f) test conditions;
g) date of test;
h) test results (individual and mean values and the mode of failure);
i) shear adhesion strength for each condition in N/mm2;
j) any other factor that could have affected the result.
