4、ter Absorption in Automotive SealersForewordThis document describes three different methods for measuring the expansion of an automotive sealerMethod #1Gravimetric MethodMethod #2Volumetric MethodMethod #3Vertical Methodand two methods for measuring water absorptionMethod #1Uncut MethodMethod #2Cut

5、MethodThe gravimetric and volumetric methods would be used to determine the amount of compound needed tocompletely fill an enclosed or “boxed in” area to effect a moisture and/or sound resistant barrier. The gravimetricmethod, Method #1, is analytical in nature and thus is more precise in its calcul

6、ated values, and is especialy usefulwhen measuring expansions of less than 100%. The volumetric method, Method #2, is a quick way to checkexpansion where errors of 5% points are not crucial.The vertical expansion method, Method #3, measures the vertical rise that a sealer achieves and is useful inde

7、termining bead size and expansion requirements in sealing applications, such as roof bows, where the criticalfunction of the compound involves “jumping” an air gap, thereby joining two irregularly spaced surfaces.The water absorption methods measure a sealers resistance to moisture transmission when

8、 the sealers outersurface is intact and/or damaged. Generally water absorption values, after 24 h immersion, of 2% or less for intactfilms and 3% or less for cut films are acceptable.1.
