Standard Test Method for Water Absorption by Immersion of Thermal Insulation Materials

Importancia y uso:

6.1 This test method provides a means of measuring the water absorption of flat or cylindrical specimens of thermal insulation materials under isothermal conditions as a result of direct immersion in liquid water. It is intended for quality control and product and material specifications.

6.2 The procedure to be used: A, B, or C as well as any exceptions shall be noted in material specifications citing this test method.

6.3 Repeatability has been established only for one type and size of material at one immersion duration.

Note 1: Specifications referring to this test method are encouraged to establish repeatability for specific materials, immersion duration, and dimensions for inclusion in this test method.
