Standard Practice for Conditioning of Thermal Insulating Materials

Importancia y uso:

5.1 The conditioning prescribed in this recommended practice is designed to obtain reproducible test results on thermal insulating materials. Results of tests obtained on these materials under uncontrolled atmospheric conditions are not comparable with each other. Some of the physical properties of thermal insulating materials are influenced by relative humidity and temperature in a manner that affects the results of tests. In this regard, such information is provided in pertinent material specifications and test methods by stating the physical properties relative to the specific ambient or test conditions.

Note 1: In some cases (for example, dimensionally unstable materials), the dry mass cannot easily be established and original mass has to be used.
