TS EN 12258-3
Aluminium and aluminium alloys - Terms and definitions - Part 3: Scrap
This part of EN 302 specifies a method for determining the resistance to delamination of bonded joints. It is suitable for the following applications: a) for assessing the compliance of adhesives with prEN 301; b) for assessing the suitability and quality of adhesives for load-bearing timber structures; c) for comparing the effects on the bond strength resulting from the choice of bonding conditions, from different climatic conditioning and from the treatment of the test pieces before and after bonding. This test is intended primarily to obtain performance data for the classification of adhesives for load-bearing timber structures according to their suitability for use in defined climatic environments. This method is not intended for use to provide numerical design data and does not necessarily represent the performance of the bonded member in service. It is not intended to be used to assess the suitability of adhesives for the manufacture of wood-based panels.

About This Item
TS EN 12258-3 is the third part of the terminology standard for aluminium and aluminium alloys, focused on scrap. It provides a common technical language for the scrap categories used in recycling and secondary raw-material chains, helping classification, trade, sorting and professional communication stay consistent.
Why scrap classification matters technically
Aluminium scrap can vary widely by source, form, alloy content, cleanliness and the presence of coatings or foreign materials. Standardised terminology helps producers, recyclers, remelters and quality teams describe the same material in the same way. That matters in practice because recovered aluminium is often remelted and its composition must be managed carefully to preserve alloy quality and reduce unwanted mixing.
What this type of standard provides
This document is about terms and definitions, not a test method. It is intended to support the naming and conceptual separation of scrap categories rather than to define performance limits, acceptance criteria or laboratory procedures. In recycling and metallurgy contexts, that shared vocabulary helps distinguish scrap types that may look similar but require different handling or processing routes.
- Covers terminology and definitions related to scrap.
- Applies within aluminium and aluminium alloy recovery streams.
- Supports common usage in classification, trade and technical communication.
- It is not a testing standard or a numerical compliance document.
