About This Item
TS EN 12701 is a terminology standard for structural adhesives with limited storage life. It brings together the words and expressions used to describe product life, storage conditions, and related concepts for structural adhesives whose properties may change during storage.
Why the terminology matters
Structural adhesives are used to create load-bearing joints between components. In practice, their properties can be affected by time, temperature, moisture, packaging, and handling conditions. Clear definitions of shelf life, storage life, product life, and pre-use suitability help reduce ambiguity between manufacturers, laboratories, quality teams, and users. The value of this standard lies in organising these concepts within a single technical vocabulary, rather than setting out a performance test method.
Technical scope in context
- The scope is limited to structural adhesives whose properties can change during storage.
- Its subject is terminology and definitions, not a stand-alone test procedure for adhesive performance.
- Related materials used with structural adhesives are included within the vocabulary framework.
- It supports consistent use of expressions linked to storage life and product life.
In general technical practice, standards of this kind help align labels, technical data sheets, procurement specifications, and laboratory reports so that the same term is used with the same meaning. That consistency is especially important for storage, stock rotation, and pre-application assessment of structural adhesive systems.
This document is adopted from EN 12701 and places the relevant adhesive terminology within the Turkish standardisation system.
