What is ISO 10545‑10 about?
ISO 10545‑10 is the 10th part of the multi-series of International Standard ISO 10545 on ‘Ceramic tiles’. ISO 10545-10 specifies a method for determining the moisture expansion of ceramic tiles.
Who is ISO 10545‑10 for?
ISO 10545‑10 on ceramic tiles is relevant to:
- Manufacturers and suppliers of ceramic tiles
- Manufacturers of wall and floor tiles
- Product engineers
- Building engineers
- Construction industry
- Flooring companies
- Architects
Why should you use ISO 10545‑10?
Ceramic is a durable material that provides strength as well as longevity to the tiles. Moisture expansion is the tendency of matter to change in volume in response to a change in moisture content. The principle of this document is the determination of accelerated moisture expansion by subjecting a reheated tile to boiling water and measuring the proportional change in length.
ISO 10545‑10 gives you the information about the apparatus used for the test methods of ceramic tiles specimen after refiring and treating in boiling water.
Furthermore, ISO 10545‑10 specifies a description of the tiles and the sizes, the moisture expansion and the average moisture expansion of the tiles. These features let you deliver durable products with long service-life and low maintenance costs.
BS EN ISO 10545-10 contributes to UN Sustainable Development Goal 9 on promoting industry, innovation and infrastructure.
