Weigh each specimen in the first set (M,) The second set shall be kept as a reference to determine the initial mass. Each specimen in the second set shall be: - weighing before drying (m,); - dried accordin

27、g to 7.2.2; - weighing after drying (m2). 7.2.2 Dry the specimens in an oven according to the sequence: Determination of constant mass after drying a) 72+20 h at (50 f 5) “C ( 0) b) 72+20 h at (70$r5)“C ( 0) c) x h at (90 k 5) “C Prior to each weighing, leave the specimens to cool to room temperatur

The contact between: - the specimens themselves; - the specimens and the walls of the chamber and (or) specimen supports; shall be point contact in order to ensure maximum exposure. 7.2.4 Frequency of weighing

32、At the beginning of exposure, it is recommended that weighings be made each day. This interval between weighings may be prolonged to one week depending on developments in the moisture pick-up curve. 7.2.5 Remove the specimens from the climatic chamber and wipe them to remove condensation with the cl

33、oth or paper. Allow them to cool to room temperature in a sealed container to reduce moisture loss to a minimum. Weigh immediately to the nearest 0,l mg (MJ. Immediately place the specimens in the climatic chamber again if further exposure is to take place. Removal of specimens and weighings 7.2.6 I
