1、Designation: C1247 09C1247 14Standard Test Method forDurability of Sealants Exposed to Continuous Immersion inLiquids1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C1247; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the ye

2、ar of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers a laboratory procedure that assists in determining the durability of a sealant and its a

3、dhesion to asubstrate while continuously immersed in a liquid. This test method tests the influence of a liquid on the sealant and its adhesionto a substrate. It does not test the added influence of constant stress from hydrostatic pressure that is often present with sealantsused in submerged and be

4、low-grade applications, nor does it test the added influence of stress from joint movement whileimmersed. This test method also does not (in its standard form) test the added influence of acids or caustics or other materials thatmay be in the liquid, in many applications.1.2 The values stated in SI

5、units are to be regarded as the standard. The inch-pound given in parentheses are provided forinformation only.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibilityof the user of this standard to establish appropriate safe

15、Box C700, West Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959. United States14.3 This test method consists of six weeks of immersion followed by three extension and compression cycles. This can befollowed by four weeks of further immersion and a repeat of the three extension and compression cycles. The four weeks ofim

16、mersion and subsequent extension and compression testing can be repeated as many times as required for the application.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method uses elevated temperature to accelerate the degradation of a sealant and its adhesion to a substrate. Thistest method is an accelerated m

17、ethod and will only be a predictor of long-term durability if the actual service temperature issignificantly lower than the elevated test temperature.5.2 This test method can be used as an indicator of longevity but direct correlation to actual use will be difficult for manyapplications.5.3 The corr

18、elation of data from this test method to applications where the sealant joint will have wet and dry cycles will bedifficult since, with some sealants on some substrates, adhesion that is lost during wet periods is regained during dry periods.5.4 This test method is performed in a hot liquid and may

19、be considered an acceleration of deterioration of the sealant or thesealants adhesion to a substrate. Compared to how the sealant will be used in some applications, in some cases, this test may beless severe than the actual application. The benefit from the use of this test method will depend on the

20、 comparison of the conditionsof this test to the actual conditions of use (temperature, duration, nature of substrate, composition of the liquid).5.5 To determine the ability of a sealant to perform in a given application; modification of this procedure will often be requiredand is permissible, as m

24、sion and bias statement of this test method is based on standard substrates of mortar and aluminum. When requested, only one ortwo of the standard substrates may be tested with the sealant. Likewise, other substrates such as brick, marble, etc., may be specified by the purchaserin place of or in add

27、ix days in saturated lime water at 23 6 2C (73 6 3.6F), prepare the surface of one face,25 by 76 mm (1 by 3 in.) of each block by wet grinding either with a belt sander using No. 60 aluminum carbide sanding belt orusing an iron lap with No. 60 silicon carbide (or aluminum oxide) grain, until the agg

28、regate is uniformly exposed. Return blocksto saturated lime water storage until needed.7.1.2 Blocks may be prepared and shipped to other locations for use. The blocks may be shipped dry and returned to lime waterstorage on arrival until needed.7.1.3 Prior to use, wet grind the previously ground face

29、 to remove any laitance, rinse thoroughly under running tap water anddry the blocks overnight at 105 to 110C (220 to 230F).

31、his should be a 0.04 % solution of alcohol ethoxy sulfate. An alternativewould be a 0.1 % solution of a clear hand dishwashing detergent. These solutions should be made up in distilled water. Rinse thesurface (without touching it) in distilled water and allow it to air dry.4 Series 520 Sealing Compo

34、erecommended primer or primers.7.3 Preparation of Test Specimens:7.3.1 Standard conditions of temperature and relative humidity for this test method are defined as 23 6 2C (73.4 6 3.6F) and50 6 5 % respectively.7.3.1 Multicomponent SealantsPrepare three test specimens for each substrate that is to b

35、e used in the test. After maintainingthe unopened sample for at least 24 h at standard conditions, mix thoroughly for 5 min at least 250 g of base compound with theappropriate amount of curing agent. Apply a bead of sealant 12 by 12 by 50 mm (12 by 12 by 2 in.) between parallel 25 by 76mm (1 by 3 in

36、.) faces of similar blocks or plates (see Fig. 1). Use appropriate casting spacer to form the proper size sealant bead.Use non-adhering casting spacers or apply polyethylene adhesive tape or any other suitable inert release agent to the inside surfaceof the spacers to prevent adhesion of the spacers

37、 to the sealant after cure. Use adhesive tape, rubber bands, or clamps to hold thetest assembly together before and after filling it with the sealant. For self-leveling sealants, use masking or any other suitable tapeto retain the sealant.7.3.2 Single-Component SealantsPrepare three test specimens a

38、s described in 7.3.27.3.1 except that no mixing of componentsis required. Condition the sealed sealant cartridge or bulk container at standard conditions at least 24 h before use.8. Conditioning8.1 Cure specimens made with multicomponent sealants for 14 days at standard conditions. During the second

39、 week of thecuring period, make attempts to free the sealant from the casting spacers at the ends and bottom without damaging the sealant bead.FIG. 1 Test SpecimenC1247 1438.2 Cure specimens made with single-component sealants for a total of 21 days as follows: (a) seven days at standardconditions;

40、(b) seven days at 37.8 6 2C (100 6 3.6F) and 95 6 5 % relative humidity; and (c) seven days at standard conditions.Separate the casting spacers from the sealant as soon as practical during the curing period without damaging the sealant.9. Procedure9.1 Remove the spacers and place the cured test spec

41、imens into the 506 2C (122 6 3.6F) test bath, totally immersing themand maintaining them at this condition for six weeks. Use a 3.8 L (1 gal) size container containing 1.9 L (2 qt) of test bath. Mortarand aluminum specimens should be separated and conditioned in separate containers.9.2 After six wee

The test is to be conducted at standard conditions

43、.9.3 Cycle the specimens through three compression and three extension cycles.9.4 Remove the specimens, hand flex the specimens to check sealant adhesion by rotating them 60, and examine them foradhesive or cohesive failure. Measure the amount of adhesive or cohesive failure in square millimetres (s

44、quare inches) and recordthese results on the report form. Note also any apparent swelling or change in appearance or contour of the sealant.9.5 Return the specimens to the 50 6 2C (1226 3.6F) test bath for four weeks.After immersion, remove the specimens fromthe test bath. Place them immediately int
