What is BS EN 1242 - Determination of the isocyanate content of adhesives about?  

BS EN 1242 specifies a method for the determination of the isocyanate content of adhesives, adhesive components, and their basic constituents. It is not applicable to products containing blocked isocyanate groups which can be liberated by the reagents used in this test method.

Who is BS EN 1242 - Determination of the isocyanate content of adhesives for? 

BS EN 1242on determination of the isocyanate content of adhesives is useful for: 

Civil engineers  
Chemical Engineers
Researchers and scientists
Interior designers  
Sculptor of timber structure

Why should you use BS EN 1242 - Determination of the isocyanate content of adhesives?  

Isocyanates are used in combination with other polymers to enhance adhesion to textile fibers.

BS EN 1242 can help in conducting tests to determine the isocyanate content in adhesives based on synthetic polymers. These test methods assess the sustainability of these adhesives in different climatic conditions.  

A world-class adhesive standard, BS EN 1242 provides a step-by-step guide to ensure superior quality of adhesives by detecting isocyanate content in adhesives and offers a cost-effective, sustainable solution to the adhesive industry.
