Scope1.1 This practice covers the preparation of specimens ofmastics and coatings in the form of cured sheet

3、s or films thatmay be used in other procedures for evaluation of physicalproperties.1.2 Three procedures are described for casting and curing(Note 1) mastics and coatings of all types for thermal insula-tion.NOTE 1The term “cure” is used primarily to denote the condition thatdevelops as the result o

5、condi-tions. The thermal insulation intended for field use may bespecified as the backing.1.2.2 Procedure B is intended to provide a free-filmspecimen of controlled thickness having smooth surfaces onboth sides. This type is required for some types of physicaltesting.1.2.3 Procedure C is intended to

6、 provide a free-filmspecimen of controlled thickness having one smooth surface(as field applied).1.3 The procedures of this practice are not intended for theevaluation of application properties. These are covered in TestMethods C 461 and Guide C 647.1.4 The values stated in inch-pound units are to b

(3.2 mm).6.4 Procedure A (Adhered Film)For the determination ofdegree of cure as described in 7.1.2, prepare one extraspecimen in addition to the number require

20、d by the otherprocedures in which they are to be used. If a primer orpretreatment of the block is specified, apply to the testspecimen in accordance with the recommendations of themanufacturer of the mastic or coating. Place and secure guidebars of a thickness equal to the desired wet mastic thickne

21、ss onthe backing material along each of the long edges. Fill the areabetween the guide bars with mastic and smooth out with atrowel to a level about 0.063 in. (1.6 mm) above the guide bars.Place the strike-off bar upon the guide bars at one end of thefilled area and move it slowly to the other end o

22、f the specimen,pushing the mastic along the surface of the backing. Asee-sawing motion of the strike-off bar will be found to aid inuniform distribution of the mastic. As the mastic is distributed,take care to prevent inclusion of air pockets. Move thestrike-off bar from end to end of the specimen i

23、n bothdirections, removing the excess material and filling the depres-sions, until a coat of uniform thickness extending from end toend of the specimen covers the entire space between the guidebars. Remove the guide bars without disturbing the wetspecimen.6.5 Procedure B (Free Film)For the determina

24、tion ofdegree of cure as described in 7.1.2, prepare one extraspecimen in addition to the number required by the otherprocedures in which they are to be used. Place a sheet of therelease paper on the backing block so that the coated surface ofthe paper faces upward, away from the backing block. Plac

25、eand secure guide bars of thickness equal to the desired wetmastic thickness on the release paper along each of the longedges. Fill the area between the guide bars with mastic andsmooth out with a trowel to a level about 0.063 in. (1.6 mm)above the guide bars. Place on the freshly applied masticanot

26、her sheet of release paper with the coated surface facingthe mastic, in the following manner: Place a short edge of thecoated paper at one end of the mastic-filled area and graduallyroll the paper into the wet mastic, using the leveling roller.Take care to prevent formation of air pockets, or bubble

27、s, underthe paper. When firmly in contact with the mastic, roll out thepaper-covered mastic until its thickness matches that of theguide bars. Then remove the guide bars without disturbing thethickness of the specimen or the position of the paper. Aconvenient method for accomplishing this is to slit

28、 the paperwith a sharp blade along the inside length of the guide bars.6.6 Procedure C (Free Film)For the determination ofdegree of cure as described in 7.1.2, prepare one extraspecimen in addition to the number required by the otherprocedures in which they are to be used. Place a sheet of thereleas

29、e paper on the backing block so that the coated surface ofthe paper faces upward, away from the backing block. Placeguide bars of thickness equal to the desired wet masticthickness on the release paper along each of the long edges. Fillthe area between the guide bars with mastic and smooth outwith a

30、 trowel to a level about 0.063 in. (1.6 mm) above theguide bars. Place the strike-off bar upon the guide bars at oneend of the filled area and move it slowly to the other end of thespecimen, pushing the mastic along the surface of the backing.A see-sawing motion of the strike-off bar will be found t

31、o aidin uniform distribution of the mastic. As the mastic is distrib-uted, take care to prevent inclusion of air pockets. Move thestrike-off bar from end to end of the specimen in bothdirections, removing the excess material and filling the depres-sions, until a coat of uniform thickness extending f

32、rom end toend of the specimen covers the entire space between the guidebars. Remove the guide bars without disturbing the wetspecimen.6.7 When a reinforcing membrane is specified, apply themastic in two separate coats of equal thickness unless other-wise specified. Immediately following the first co

Curing Prepared Specimens7.1 Procedure A (Adhered Film):7.1.1 During the first 24-h hold the test specimens at 60 to80F (15 to 27C). At the end of the 24-h period remove thespecimens to a thermostaticall

34、y controlled oven having atemperature of 150 6 5F (63 to 68C) and hold in this ovenuntil the desired degree of cure has been reached.7.1.2 To determine the degree of cure, take from the extraspecimen a sample of the coating from an area typical of thatto be subjected to test conditions during later

35、procedures.Determine the percentage of volatile liquids evaporated fromthe mastic during the curing as follows: Weigha1to2-gsample to the nearest 0.001 g and place it for a period of5hat220 6 5F (104 6 3C) in an oven conforming to therequirements specified in Test Method D 6. At the conclusionof the

36、 5-h heating period, remove the sample from the oven,cool to room temperature, and weigh to the nearest 0.001 g.Calculate the loss in weight as a percent of the weight before4A suitable paper is “Ideal” gummed paper, White No. 534D, supplied by Allingand Cory, 1300 W.

Calculate the degree of cure as follows:Degree of cure, % 5 A/B! 3 100 (1)where:A = percent loss in weight, andB = percent volatile matter (6.2).7.2 Procedures B and C (Free Film):7.2.1 Do not remove the specimens from the backing block.Allow the specimens to cure for 7 days at 6

38、0 to 80F (15 to27C). At the end of the 7-day period transfer the specimens(still on the backing blocks) to a thermostatically controlledoven having a temperature of 150 6 5F (63 to 68C). Hold inthis oven for a minimum of 14 days, and for as long thereafteras may be necessary to reach the desired deg

39、ree of cure.Determine the degree of cure in accordance with 7.1.2.7.2.2 Conditioning of Free FilmAllow the specimens tocool, remove them from the backing block, and immerse in tapwater at approximately 50F (10C). When the paper coatinghas softened (usually 20 to 30 min), strip all the paper from the

40、specimens and rinse them in cool (50F, 10C) water until nowater-soluble gum remains on the surfaces. Blot carefully toremove excess water and allow to dry at room temperature withgood ventilation. Before using the specimens in further tests,remove and discard the outer 0.050 in. (13 mm) of masticaro

41、und the perimeter.7.2.3 Measure dry thickness at several locations to thenearest 0.001 in. (0.025 mm) with a suitable ratchet microme-ter, and record. The dry thickness at any point shall deviate notmore than 10 % from the average thickness.8. Report8.1 Since this practice covers only the preparatio

42、n andcuring of specimens to be tested by other methods, no report isnecessary. Data here obtained should be included in the reportof the succeeding test. These data include procedure used, drythickness of specimen, number of coats, presence of primer ormembrane, or both, degree of cure, and any devi
