4、ctural silicone sealant glazing systems.1.2 The values stated in metric (SI) units are to be regardedas the standard.The inch-pound values given in parentheses areprovided for information purposes only.1.3 Test Method C 1166, as referenced in this specification,should be used to measure and describe

5、 the properties ofmaterials, products, or assemblies in response to heat and flameunder controlled laboratory conditions and should not be usedto describe or appraise the fire hazard or fire risk of materials,products, or assemblies under actual fire conditions. However,results of this test may be u

Classifica

17、tion4.1 The products described by this specification are classi-fied by type, hardness, class, and surface.4.2 Type:4.2.1 Type T, Tear ResistantIn general these productshave a higher level of tear resistance, midrange heat agingcharacteristics, midrange compression set resistance, and 30 to70 durome

18、ter hardness. This type is applicable where finishedproducts are intended to bridge or to cover a space (forexample, expansion joint gaskets), or where high tear strengthis required due to conditions of exposure or usage.4.2.2 Type C, Compression Set ResistantIn general, theseproducts have a lower l

19、evel of tear resistance, above midrangeheat aging characteristics, a high level of compression setresistance, and 30 to 85 durometer hardness. This type isapplicable where finished products are used as compressiongaskets, or where low compression set is required due toconditions of exposure or usage

20、; and as settingblocks, spacers,shims, or other accessories in glazing and sealing systems.4.3 HardnessEach type described in 4.2 is subdividedinto various hardnesses, based on nominal durometer hardnessas shown in Table 1 and Table 2. For example, Grade H3 is 30durometer.4.4 Class:4.4.1 Flame propa

21、gation characteristics of the finished prod-ucts can be varied depending on the degree of exposure,expected usage, and intended durability desired. Productsdescribed by this specification shall be classified as to flamepropagation as follows:4.4.1.1 Class FResistance to flame propagation is re-quire

22、d.4.4.1.2 When no flame propagation resistance is required,no class designation should be used.4.5 Surface:4.5.1 Consideration of product surface requirements may benecessary. During the production of these products the use ofvarious lubricants, release agents, dusting agents, and othersolutions may

23、 be required. It may be necessary after vulcani-zation to remove these materials from the surfaces of theproduct because of appearance, fabrication, or usage require-ments. All products do not require removal of those materialsor removal to the same degree of cleanliness.4.5.2 Products may also be r

24、equired to develop adhesion orto not develop adhesion to sealants with which they are incontact.4.5.3 Products described by this specification shall be clas-sified as to surface condition as follows:4.5.3.1 Surface S1The surface of the product shall besmooth, clean, free from any foreign matter, and
