This guide covers the selection and use of test methods for high-performance interior architectural wall coatings (HIPAC) designed for wall surfaces of steel, masonry (poured concrete, concrete block, or cinder block), and plaster or gypsum wallboard. HIPAC are tough, extra-durable organic coating...
5.1 Diesel fuel injection equipment has some reliance on lubricating properties of the diesel fuel. Shortened life of engine components, such as diesel fuel injection pumps and injectors, has sometimes been ascribed to lack of lubricity in a diesel fuel. 5.2 The trend of HFRR test results to diesel...
5.1 The pull-off strength and mode of failure of a coating from a concrete substrate are important performance properties that are used in specifications. This test method serves as a means for uniformly preparing and testing coated surfaces, and evaluating and reporting the results. 5.2 Variations...
This specification prescribes the recommended range of water activity (aw) suitable for safe and efficacious storage of cannabis flowers or portions thereof. Water activity (aw) is defined as the partial vapor pressure of water in a substance divided by the partial vapor pressure of pure water at...
4.1 This test method may be used for material development, quality control, characterization, and design data generation purposes. This test method is intended to be used with ceramics whose flexural strength is ~50 MPa (~7 ksi) or greater. 4.2 The flexure stress is computed based on simple beam...
This specification covers the general requirements and physical properties of reflective insulations for use in building applications. These insulation materials consist of one or more low emittance surfaces, such as metallic foil or metallic deposits, unmounted or mounted on substrates. Reflective...
4.1 The objective of this practice is to provide ergonomic design criteria for maritime vessels and structures to ensure that maritime systems and equipment are designed in compliance with requirements for human performance, human workload, health and safety, survivability, and habitability. 4.2...
1.1 This test method covers laboratory procedures for determining the sliding wear of ceramics, metals, and other candidate wear-resistant materials using a linear, reciprocating ball-on-flat plane geometry. The direction of the relative motion between sliding surfaces reverses in a periodic...
5.1 The dry indicator used in this test method is so strongly hygroscopic it will change color in a moderate- to high-humidity atmosphere without contacting liquid water. It will also change when in contact with liquid water. 5.2 This test method is of value for materials that come in...
5.1 The purpose of these tests is to obtain, by means of simple apparatus, reliable values for water vapor transfer rate through materials, expressed in suitable units. 5.2 A WVTR value obtained in one method under one set of test conditions is not necessarily indicative of the value that would be...
5.1 The purpose of these tests is to obtain, by means of simple apparatus, reliable values for water vapor transfer rate through materials, expressed in suitable units. 5.2 A WVTR value obtained in one method under one set of test conditions is not necessarily indicative of the value that would be...
5.1 This guide will help manufacturers and users of AM powder feedstocks to identify suitable methods for measuring moisture in the feedstocks. 5.2 This guide will aid control of powder quality and allow powder producers and users of AM machines to assess moisture content of virgin and reused...
5.1 The levels of tensile properties obtained when testing aramid paper are dependent on the age and history of the specimen and on the specific conditions used during the test. Among these conditions are rate of stretching, type of clamps, gauge length of specimen, temperature and humidity...
5.1 For application areas such as optical fiber and cable reinforcements, aramid is usually used in a linear - not twisted - form. For designing constructions like this, it is essential to use data based on a specimen without twist applied. 5.1.1 The modulus and FASE of twisted yarns demonstrate...
1.1 This test method is a very stringent procedure for establishing the capability of new and used activated carbon to remove radio-labeled methyl iodide from air and gas streams. The single test method described is for application to both new and used carbons, and should give test results...
4.1 Natural and manufactured textiles fibers can be treated with chemicals to provide enhanced antimicrobial (fungi, bacteria, viruses) properties. In some cases, silver nanomaterials may be used to treat textile fibers (1).6 Silver nanomaterials are used to treat a wide array of consumer textile...
4.1 This test method is used for measuring the relative abilities of metal preservatives to prevent the rusting of steel panels under conditions of high humidity. It should not be relied upon to predict the effectiveness of a metal preservative in which high humidity is not the...
1.1 This test method covers procedures for determining the resistance to deflection and damage of floor and roof sheathing used in site-built construction subjected to concentrated static loads as well as impact loads from nonrigid blunt objects. It is applicable to wood and wood-based panels and...
2.1 The type of materials used in the manufacture of insulation products and the type of membrane used to face these products can sometimes affect fungi sustenance in the presence of high humidity. 2.2 This test method is used to determine the relative ability of an insulation and its facing...
3.1 This practice describes a weathering box test fixture and provides uniform exposure guidelines to minimize the variables encountered during outdoor exposure testing. 3.2 This practice may be useful in comparing the performance of different materials at one site or the performance of the same...
