1、Designation: E41 92 (Reapproved 2010)Standard Terminology Relating ToConditioning1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E41; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of originaladoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in paren

2、theses indicates the year of last reapproval. A superscriptepsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 These definitions pertain to the conditioning of materialsfor test purposes. Unless otherwise specified, they are intendedto apply to all cases where

3、combinations of atmosphericinfluences are an essential part of the testing of materials.1.2 It is the intent of this standard to include those condi-tioning terms in wide use in ASTM for which standarddefinitions appear desirable.2.
