22、rigeration, Heating and Air Conditioning Standards Policy Committee. It supersedes BS2972:1975, which is withdrawn. All the test methods of the1975 edition have been reviewed. A few remain in their original form, with some minor amendments. The sections on odour, and emissivity of metal foil (sectio

23、ns 13 and 15 in the1975 edition) have been deleted. The new section8 gives a test for interlaminar strength. The new section22 gives a method of test for pH value of a water extract. Significant modifications have been made to the following sections: Section 2. Dimensions. Measurement of the deviati

24、on from squareness of a board has been added. Section 3. Bulk density. This now includes a method of test for blown materials. Section 6. Heat stability. This has been re-written to clarify and improve the test equipment and method. Section 9. Vibration settlement. Requirements for testing the settl

25、ement of blown materials have been added to the high frequency/small amplitude test. The test for jolting at low frequency/high amplitude has been deleted because it was rarely, if ever, used. The test for stability under heat and vibration has been deleted pending the development of a more suitable

26、 method. Section 12. Water absorption. A new test method has been added for resistance to capillary absorption. Section 14. Coarse shot content. A new dry method has been introduced in place of the former wet method, which used a special glass elutriator. Section 19. Fibre diameter. The method has b

27、een revised to facilitate the identification and measurement of fibre diameters. Section 21. Trace quantities of water-soluble chlorides. The potentiometric titration method, introduced by amendment in1982, has been deleted and replaced by a polarographic titration method. It is very important that

28、claims for technical quality of materials should be related to well established methods of test which are based on sound fundamental principles, and the purpose of this standard is to provide details of basic tests for the assessment of a range of properties which are likely to be of value to a pote

29、ntial user. Some of these tests may not be suitable for quick routine control checking; essentially, they should be regarded as the basis for reference purposes in the event of dispute or of doubt concerning the accuracy of such more rapid methods as may be used as a matter of convenience. It is str

30、ongly recommended that, where any dispute arises, the methods of this standard only be used. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does no

31、t of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pages i to iv, pages1to56, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated. This will

General 1 Scope This British Standard specifies methods of test for inorganic thermal insulating materials, including preformed, plastic composition, flexible and loose-fill materials. The following m

33、ethods of test are given. NOTEThe titles of publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. 2 Definitions For the purposes of this British Standard the definitions given in BS874 and BS3533 apply together with the following. 2.1 wet covering capacity the wet covering c

34、apacity of a plastic composition material is defined as the area covered to a thickness of25mm by unit mass of dry composition when the material is mixed with the quantity of water recommended by the manufacturer and applied in accordance with the method given in section 10 (usually expressed as m 2

35、 /1000kg) 2.2 sample a portion of material or group of units, taken from a large mass or aggregation, which is used to give information as to the quality of the larger quantity. The sample may be “random” or “representative” generally, samples of preformed and flexible insulation will, of necessity,

36、 be random samples while those of insulating aggregates and powders will be representative ones 2.3 random sample a sample taken without bias, i.e. so that every item has an equal chance of inclusion 2.4 representative sample a sample in the selection of which planned action is taken to ensure that

37、a specified proportion of its contents is drawn from a different subportion, e.g.case or package, of the whole aggregation. The sampling from within each subportion may, however, be random 2.5 specimen a suitably sized portion of a sample which is used for a specific test 2.6 coarse shot non-fibrous

38、 material retained on a2504m nominal aperture test sieve complying with BS410 3 Sampling 3.1 General Although there are well established procedures for the selection of samples for quality control purposes where the units are of similar type, size and shape, such as insulating bricks, it is not prac

39、ticable to apply such methods to many consignments of insulating materials owing to the very wide variety of types and shapes which may be involved. It is therefore necessary to adapt the method of sampling to the type of product in question. Sampling becomes difficult when the consignment consists

40、of relatively small quantities of insulating materials of different types and physical properties, and it may be necessary to restrict the size of the samples in such cases to avoid the destructive testing of too large a proportion of each subportion of the consignment. As a general rule, it is desi

41、rable to select the samples from material at the manufacturers works, but this procedure may not always be appropriate owing to the possibility that the properties of the material can be modified prior to or during application at site.

45、the plant. 3.2 Selection of samples Samples shall be taken only from unbroken packages or from undamaged units and, as far as possible, they are to be representative of each material in the consignment. Where the consignment comprises more than one type of insulating material and/or more than one th

46、ickness or density, each type, each thickness and each density shall be treated as a separate consignment for the purposes of sampling, unless other arrangement is made between the purchaser and the vendor. Samples of materials consisting of relatively small and similar units, e.g. insulating bricks

47、, shall be obtained by random selection, preferably while the consignment is being unloaded, as it is not practicable to ensure correct sampling from a stock-pile of the units. Samples of granular, powdered and plastic composition materials shall be prepared by withdrawing material from each contain

48、er selected for sampling: the material shall be taken after emptying and thoroughly mixing the contents of the container. All the samples of one type (preferably not less than2kg total) shall be thoroughly mixed together and gathered into a conical heap which shall then be divided into quarters by v

49、ertical cuts. Any two diametrically opposite quarters shall be discarded and the two remaining quarters mixed together and quartered as before. The process of mixing, quartering, discarding and remixing shall be repeated until a sample of size requisite for the tests remains. When samples are to be drawn from material which has already been applied to a portion of plant, e.g.for bulk density determination on plastic composition or loose-fill insulating materials, care shall be taken to ensure that the portion of material selected is
