7、tors (MAFs) not covered by any other existing or provisional, British or International Standard. Experience has shown that extending the method described in BS EN ISO 9047 to test sealants with a MAF greater than 25 % does not accurately reflect the behaviour of the sealant in service. This standard

8、 addresses this issue by using a definition of MAF that takes into account the difference in behaviour between compression and extension. The test method anticipates such properties.

11、 to the procedures in BS 8000-16. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

13、iple Test specimens are prepared, in which the sealant to be tested adheres to two parallel contact surfaces. After submission to cycles of compression and extension under defined conditions, the test specimens are examined for evidence of loss of adhesion or cohesion. 5 Materials 5.1 Substrate mate

14、rials The substrates used shall conform to BS ISO 13640. Select the substrate material(s) from mortar, and/or aluminium, and/or glass, or from other substrate materials as agreed by the parties concerned. Two substrate pieces of the same material shall be used for each test specimen. These shall hav

15、e a cross-section of dimensions as shown in Figure 1 or Figure 2, depending on the material. Test substrates and spacers (see 5.2) of other dimensions may be used, but the dimensions of the sealant bead and the area of adhesion shall be the same as those shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 (12 1) mm and

16、(12 1) mm (50 1) mm respectively. 5.2 Spacers Spacers for the preparation of the test specimens shall be rigid and of dimensions (12 1) mm (12 1) mm (12 1) mm with an anti-adherent surface. 5.3 Anti-adherent material The test specimens shall be prepared upon a non-adhesive material, e.g. polyethylen

17、e film. NOTE The choice of material should follow the advice of the sealant manufacturer. 6 Equipment 6.1 Ventilated convection type oven, capable of being maintained at (70 2) C. 6.2 Refrigerated enclosure, capable of being maintained at (20 2) C. 6.3 Container for water immersion of the specimens

18、for conditioning according to method B (8.2). 6.4 Test machine, capable of extending and compressing the test specimens at a rate of (5.5 0.7) mm/min. 6.5 Measuring device, capable of measuring the depth of cracks and tears, in the sealant bead, to a resolution of 1 mm.BS 8449:2005 2 BSI 11 February

21、 spacers (5.2), as described by Figure 1 or Figure 2, upon the anti-adherent material (5.3). 7.3 Follow the instructions of the sealant manufacturer concerning, for instance, whether a primer should be used and the mixing procedure for multi-component sealants. Fill the hollow volume formed by the s

22、ubstrates and spacers with the sealant, taking the following precautions: a) avoid the formation of air bubbles; b) press the sealant in order that it makes good contact with the substrates; c) tool the sealant surface so that it is flush with the top faces of the substrates and spacers. 7.4 Keeping

23、 the pieces in the arrangement described in Figure 1 or Figure 2, set the test specimens on the edge of one of the substrates. 7.5 Remove the anti-adherent surface as soon as practicable. Store the specimens in this position during pre-conditioning. Keep the spacers in place during pre-conditioning

24、and conditioning. 7.6 Pre-condition the sealant and the substrate material for 24 h at (23 2) C. 8 Conditioning of test specimens 8.1 Conditioning method A Condition the test specimens for 28 days at (23 2) C and (50 5) % relative humidity. 8.2 Conditioning method B First condition the test specimen

25、s according to method A and subsequently subject them three times to the following storage cycle: a) 3 days in the oven (6.1) at (70 2) C; b) 1 day in distilled water (6.3) at (23 2) C; c) 2 days in the oven (6.1) at (70 2) C; d) 1 day in distilled water (6.3) at (23 2) C. Alternatively, this cycle

26、may be carried out in the sequence: c) d) a) b). Store the test specimens for a further period of 24 h at (23 2) C and (50 5) % relative humidity before testing. NOTE Conditioning method B is a normal conditioning procedure using the influence of heat and water. It is not intended to give informatio

27、n on the durability of the sealant. 9 Procedure 9.1 Pre-examination After preparation and conditioning, the sealant test pieces shall be examined for defects. Any test specimens deemed unsuitable for testing shall be rejected. Remove the spacers. 9.2 Calculation of test parameters The speed of exten

28、sion and compression used in the test procedure shall be (5.5 0.7) mm/min. The amplitudes of movement to be used during testing, depending on the expected MAF, shall be as shown in Table 1.BS 8449:2005 BSI 11 February 2005 5 Table 1 Test amplitudes If a sealant is to be tested for a MAF value other

29、than those shown in Table 1, then the following equations give the extension and compression required: where: 9.3 Test 9.3.1 First week Day 1: Place the test specimens in the refrigerated enclosure (6.2) at (20 2) C. After three hours, extend the test specimens in the test machine (6.4) to the requi

30、red extension. Maintain the extension at (20 2) C for 21 h. Day 2: Release the extension. Place the test specimens in the oven (6.1) at (70 2) C. After three hours compress the test specimens in the test machine (6.4) to the required compression. Maintain the compression for 21 h at 70 C. Day 3: Rel

31、ease the compression and follow the procedure of Day 1. Day 4: Follow the procedure of Day 2. Days 5 to 7: Release the compression, store at (23 2) C and (50 5) % relative humidity without applying any mechanical force. 9.3.2 Second week Repeat the procedure of the first week. 10 Test specimen exami

32、nation and definition of failure 10.1 After the test specimens have been submitted to the above cycles, examine them for loss of cohesion and/or adhesion. Measure the depth of any adhesive or cohesive failures using the measuring device (6.5). 10.2 Record the maximum depth of adhesion loss or cohesi

33、on loss and the position of that maximum for each test specimen. 10.3 If loss of adhesion or loss of cohesion exceeds two millimetres anywhere on the sealant surface, the sealant test piece shall be reported as having failed. 10.4 If two or more of the test specimens fail, the sealant shall be repor

34、ted as having failed. 10.5 If only one test specimen fails then the complete test shall be repeated. If, after the repeated test, one or more test specimens fail, the sealant shall be reported as having failed.
