Abstract
In cleanroom technology fields as food, pharmaceutics and health care as well as in normal living and working environments, construction materials implemented in specific applications need to be assessed for their chemical and biological resistance and classified in order to permit direct comparisons to be made. The presentation shows a standardized procedure for testing and classifying materials with uniform sample preparation and measurement procedures. The assessment of the chemical resistance is done according to ISO 2812-1. The assessment of the biological resistance is done according to ISO 846. The followed standardized classification procedure is laid down in the new guideline VDI 2083 part 17. The test and classification allow a fast material screening and comparison. The resulting material classification numbers are entered into the database www.cleanmanufacturing.fraunhofer.de and www.ipa.csm.com of the Fraunhofer industrial alliance CSM - cleanroom suitable materials to allow the tested products to be directly compared with one another. This enables a material selection already in the planning phase of a cleanroom or other environment.
