Why should you use PD CEN/TR 17511?
The odour of ELT granulates can be an obstacle to their use. This is particularly critical at high temperatures, e.g. in the case of plastic injection. To solve this problem, the origin of the odour is identified to the extent that this is possible. Then it is quantified under normal conditions of use or at higher temperatures.
PD CEN/TR 17511 provides test methods to determine the intensity and odour of ELT granulates. PD CEN/TR 17511 also provides remedies and recommendations to lower or eliminate the odour. The identification of the exact origin of the odour would allow the possibility of reducing or eliminating it.
