EN 546-1:2006 (E) 3 Foreword This document (EN 546-1:2006) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 132 “Aluminium and aluminium alloys”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by June 2007, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by June 2007. This document supersedes EN 546-1:1996. Within its programme of work, Technical Committee CEN/TC 132 entrusted CEN/TC 132/WG 6 "Foil and finstock" to revise EN 546-1:1996. The following modifications have been made:  Clause 3: deletion of subclauses 3.1 to 3.6. Reference to EN 12258-1, and definition of converter foil, consumer/household foil and container foil added;  Clause 4: title is changed, and wording is clarified;  subclauses 5.2, 6.1.1 and 6.2.1: text amended. EN 546 comprises the following parts under the general title "Aluminium and aluminium alloys – Foil":  Part 1: Technical conditions for inspection and delivery  Part 2: Mechanical properties  Part 3: Tolerances on dimensions  Part 4: Special property requirements Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. CEN/TC 132 affirms it is its policy that in the case when a patentee refuses to grant licenses on standardised standard products under reasonable and not discriminatory conditions, then this product shall be removed from the corresponding standard. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.



EN 546-1:2006 (E) 4 1 Scope This document specifies the technical conditions for inspection and delivery of wrought aluminium and aluminium alloy foil. The gauge range covered is 6 µm to 200 µm. It does not apply to lacquered, painted, embossed or laminated products. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.
