Scope1.1 This practice sets forth a testing methodology for evaluating the properties of thermal insulation

3、 materials to be used in solarcollectors with concentration ratios of less than 10. Tests are given herein to evaluate the pH, surface burning characteristics,moisture adsorption, water absorption, thermal resistance, linear shrinkage (or expansion), hot surface performance, andaccelerated aging. Th

5、Otherthermal insulation materials shall be tested in accordance with the provisions set forth herein and should not be excluded fromconsideration.1.3 The assumption is made that elevated temperature, moisture, and applied stresses are the primary factors contributing to thedegradation of thermal ins

6、ulation materials used in solar collectors.1.4 Solar radiation is not considered a contributing factor since insulating materials are not normally exposed to it.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibilityof the u

Significance and Use5.1 The exposure conditions in solar collectors, especially under stagnation conditions, may degrade the performance of thermalinsulat

18、ion materials. This practice sets forth a methodology for evaluating the degree of degradation, if any, of the thermalinsulation materials after exposure to simulated in-service conditions.5.2 This practice is also intended to aid in the assessment of long-term performance by comparative testing of

19、insulationmaterials. However, correlations between performance under laboratory and actual in-service conditions have not been established.5.3 This practice also sets forth criteria that shall be considered in the selection and specification of thermal insulation materials.One such criterion is surf

20、ace burning characteristics (Test Method E84), which is used by many code officials as a reference. Thispractice does not represent that the numerical values obtained in any way reflect the anticipated performance of the thermalinsulation under actual fire conditions.6. Sampling and Test Specimens6.

21、1 Representative specimens shall be selected at random from the original sample lot for each test condition.6.2 At least three representative specimens shall be measured for each property tested unless otherwise stipulated in a particulartest.6.3 The size and shape of the representative specimens sh

22、all be as specified in the property measurement test.6.4 A separate set of test specimens shall be prepared for each test.7. Conditioning7.1 Unless otherwise specified, maintain the test specimens in a conditioned space at 24C (75 6 5F) and 50 6 5 % relativehumidity for at least 48 h before testing.

23、7.2 Maintain test samples in the conditioned space until removed to perform a particular test sequence.8. Procedure8.1 Conduct all the tests described in 7.28.2 7.118.11. The sequence of testing is optional.8.2 pH:8.2.1 Measure the pH of a mixture consisting of the insulation material and water with

24、 a pH meter using the followingprocedure:8.2.1.1 Pulverize a sample of approximately 5 g of the insulation to pass through a 4760-m sieve.8.2.1.2 Mix the pulverized sample with 100 mL of distilled water at 24C (75 6 5F) in a 500-mL glass beaker.8.2.1.3 Stir the mixture, using a glass rod, and allow

25、to stand for 1 h at 24C (75 6 5F).8.2.1.4 Measure the pH to the nearest 0.1 unit.8.2.2 Calibrate the pH meter and electrodes before each testing sequence using standard buffer solutions. Buffer solution pHshall be within 6 2 pH units of the expected measured pH.8.3 Surface Burning CharacteristicsDet

Then photograph the specimens at a magnification of 200.8.9.1.1 Cut samples of the insulation material to be evaluated to 145 by 90 mm (5.7 by 3.5 in.) along

34、of any distressed areas. Compare and contrast these photographs and record the differences.8.9.2.1 Although it is recognized that this test method is appropriate for identifying chemical incompatibility in most insulationmaterials, it must be stated that other temperature and humidity parameters wil

35、l also induce distress.8.10 Outgassing (Volatile Condensibles)Release of volatiles from the insulation materials, in some cases, may be a significantfactor that can effect the transmittance of a cover plate, or the properties of the absorber itself, or both. It is expected that elevatedtemperatures

36、or reactions, or both, between materials may cause outgassing. A generally applicable test is not presently availableto evaluate effects of outgassing products. It is essential however, that this factor be recognized.8.11 Durability:8.11.1 Evaluate the durability of the test sample by measuring the
