Standard Test Method for Conducting Exterior Exposure Tests of Finishes for Thermal Insulation

Importancia y uso:

5.1 Both physical and chemical changes possibly occur from weather exposure, and these changes affect performance properties, service life, and maintenance schedules. For this reason, tests of properties relating to performance shall be made both before and after specific periods of outdoor exposure.

5.2 This test method recognizes that differing geographical locations, environmental conditions, differences between surface temperatures and ambient temperatures, and test durations have extremely varied effects upon the test results.

5.3 This test method is to be used for comparative qualitative testing.
