Significance and Use4.1 Proper measurements of thickness and density of blan-ket or batt insulations are essential for determining thermalinsulation p

7、roperties. For a particular batt or blanket product,thickness and density are usually directly related to thermalinsulating value.4.2 These test methods are of significant value in manufac-turing quality control, to ensure that claimed insulation valuesof products are maintained.5.

United States16.3.1 Cut one batt from the center of the roll, two batts fromthe ends of the roll, and t

16、he fourth and fifth from the quarterpoints along the length. See Fig. 2.6.3.2 For blankets wider than 24 in., cut each of the fivebatts 24 6 0.25 in. (61 6 0.63 cm) wide by 48 6 0.25 in. (1226 0.63 cm) long.6.4 Sampling for Full Roll MethodThis method can beused in place of 6.3 when the roll is wide

17、r than 24 in. (61 cm)or longer than 50 ft (16.4 m). Prior to unrolling the material,weigh the entire roll to the nearest 0.25 pound (0.11 kg). Twomethods may be used to obtain the full roll weight. The firstmethod removes the insulation product from the packagingprior to weighing. The material will

18、expand and may unrollslightly, care must be taken to ensure that the full roll isweighed accurately. The second method weighs the packagedinsulation product, then weighs the packaging material only.The packaging material weight is subtracted from packagedproduct weight to obtain net material weight.

19、7. Procedure7.1 Expansion of Packages and Cut RollHold the first battvertically off the floor by grasping it with both hands on itslong dimension so that the lower edge is 18 6 1 in. (460 6 25mm) above a solid horizontal surface. Release the batt,allowing it to strike the surface. Repeat the above f

20、or a secondtime. Next, holding the batt by the other long edge, drop twiceas above. Place the specimen on the flat, hard surface. Repeatthe above for the remaining four specimens. Allow specimensto reach equilibrium by waiting at least 5 min before makingthickness measurements within 1 in. (25 mm) i

21、n any directionof five points as indicated in Fig. 3.NOTE 1If 23-in. (580-mm) wide samples are tested, use a quarter orhalf of that dimension to establish the test points.NOTE 2Some materials may require4hormore to reach equilibrium.7.2 Expansion of Full RollUnroll the insulation. Flip thetest roll

22、over its entire length so the bottom surface is now onFIG. 1 Depth Gauge for Thickness MeasurementsFIG. 2 Sampling of Cut RollsC167 152top. Next grasp one end and pull the material over itself untilthe original surface is again facing up. If there is insufficientroom to pull the material over itself

23、 (less than twice theunrolled length), the material may be repositioned by slidingthe partially pulled roll to the end of the testing space, andcontinue to pull the material over itself.NOTE 3Use 7.1 if sampling procedure in 6.3 is used.7.3 Measurement of Packages and Cut RollInsert the pinof the th

24、ickness gauge vertically into the material at the firstmeasuring point with a twisting motion until it contacts thehard surface beneath. Lower the disk until it lightly anduniformly contacts the specimen.An alternative procedure is touse a disk whose mass exerts a specified pressure of at least 0.4l

25、bf/ft2(20 Pa) on the specimen. With the gauge disk lockedagainst the pin, lift the gauge unit from the test specimen.While holding the gauge in locked position, place the diskagainst the zero end of the rule with the pin projecting alongthe calibrated surface of the rule. Observe and record thereadi

26、ng at the pointed end of the pin to the nearest 0.05 in. (1mm). Repeat the above for each of the remaining measuringpoints as shown in Fig. 3.7.4 Measurement of Full RollRecord the roll length to thenearest 1 in. (2.54) cm. Take measurements on each side of theroll. If the roll has been cut in half,

27、 take a third roll lengthmeasurement along the midpoint of the roll width. Record rollwidth at three locations to the nearest 0.125 in. (0.32 cm).Width measurements will be taken 10 ft (3.05 m) from eachend, and in the middle of the roll length. Using a pin gauge,record thickness to the nearest 0.05

28、 in. (1 mm) as shown in Fig.4. Refer to Section 7.3 for use of pin gauge. Two 15 ft (4.57 m)long sections shall be measured. These sections shall be 10(3.05 m) in from each end. A total of twenty thicknessmeasurements will be taken for each roll.NOTE 4Use 7.4 if sampling procedure in 6.4 is used.8.

Precision and Bias310.1 The precision and bias of these test methods depend onthe ability to read and interpolate the steel rule and balance andto judge when surface contact occurs between the depth gaugedisk and the test specimen.10.2 Thickness of PackagesAn interlaboratory comp

35、ari-son of six participating laboratories was conducted in 1991 onfibrous glass insulation. This test program used four commonbatt insulations and tested all batts within each package. Awithin-laboratory repeatability for thickness measurements of7 % was obtained, which also includes product and pac

36、kagingvariability. Individual batt measurements were initially ex-pressed as percentages of the average measurement of therespective package average. These percentages were thennormalized to the average thickness versus piece locationdistribution for the respective product as measured by the sixlabo

37、ratories. Twice the sample standard deviation of thesevalues yielded the repeatability. The 95 % repeatability limit,2.8 (sr), was 9 %.10.3 The interlaboratory comparison noted in 10.2 yieldedvalues for bias of the batt sampling techniques specified in 6.2of not greater than 1 % for any of the produ

38、cts tested. Bias wasmeasured in terms of the percent deviation of the averagethickness of the sampled batts from the package average.10.4 Imprecision of the batt sampling techniques was deter-mined to be 2.4 % for the five-batt method and 3.6 % for thethree-batt method.NOTE 5Imprecision in this subs

39、ection refers to twice the samplestandard deviation of the thicknesses predicted by the sampling techniqueexpressed as a percentage of the average measured thickness of all battswithin the package.10.5 Thickness of Cut RollAn interlaboratory study of thecut roll sampling technique was run in 1995 on

45、ollAn interlaboratory study of thefull roll sampling technique was also run in 1995 on fibrousglass insulation. Four laboratories each tested three samples oftwo material thicknesses. The materials included an R-10 roll,100 ft (30.48 m) long by 72 in. (182.88 cm) wide, and an R-19roll, 50 ft (15.24

46、m) long by 60 in. (152.4 cm) wide. Thesematerials represent the range of product packaged as widerrolls. The analyzed data consisted of a package averagethickness, calculated from 20 sampling points per package, tenlocations each from two 15 ft (4.57 m) wide areas located 10ft (3.05 m) from each pac
