Summary of Test Method4.1 The insulation is suspended in de-ionized or distilledwater so that the bott
7、om of the specimen is submerged to oneinch below the water surface; distance of wicking is notedevery 24 h for 96 h and then again at the end of 168 h.5. Significance and Use5.1 The tendency of the insulation toward wicking canresult in an increase in weight and a resultant potentialdegradation in t

(25-mm) (Optional: add dye4to the water1to 2 drops per liter to the water to facilitate marking the extentof wicking). The water shall be at 68 6 4F (20 6 2C).9.4 Position the r
16、emaining six specimens similarly in an-other container. Pour de-ionized (or distilled) water into thiscontainer to a height of 1-in. (25-mm), again adding dye.Maintain the temperature of this water at 120 6 5F (50 62C) by using a hot plate.9.5 Note distance of wicking above water surface with steelr

Procedure BWicking after Aging10.1 Condition a sample of insulation 8- by 14-in. (203- by356-mm) in a forced air circulating oven at 160 6 5F (71 63C) for two weeks o
18、r at least 336 h. The aged specimen shallbe tested according to procedure outlined in 9.2-9.5.11. Procedure CWicking after Leaching11.1 Condition a sample of insulation 8- by 14-in. (203- by356-mm) by submerging in an immersion tank of de-ionized(or distilled) water maintained at a temperature of 80
19、 to 85F(27 to 29C) for a period of at least 24 h. The tank shall be ofsuch a shape and size that the specimen can be submergedtherein with all surfaces of the specimen having full access tothe water. Ratio of specimen to water shall not be less than 1to 100 by weight. A continuous flow of water shal
20、l be suppliedto the bottom of the container at the above temperature at a rateof five changes per hour. At the end of the leaching period, thespecimen shall be removed from the water, air dried to aconstant weight and weighed. The leached specimen shall betested according to procedure outlined in 9.
21、2-9.5.12. Calculation or Interpretation of Results12.1 Determine the amount of wicking by measurementwith a steel rule as described in 6.2.12.2 Wetting of the submerged portion of the wickingspecimens is permissible. Wicking is the distance of wettingabove the water surface (average value of center-
22、point mea-surements of three sides of the wicking specimen-side adjacentto screen surface should not be measured).12.3 Beads of water are not to be construed as a condition ofwetting. The formation of beads of water on the insulationsurface indicates water repellency.12.4 Surface wetting is not cons
23、idered wicking, but cannotbe greater than 1 in. (25.4 mm) when measured from the waterline.13. Report13.1 The report shall include the following:13.1.1 Name and any additional identification of the mate-rial tested,13.1.2 Thickness of the material,13.1.3 Number of specimens tested, and13.1.4 The ave

Precision and Bias14.1 Inter-laboratory Test ProgramAn inter-laboratorystudy was run in which randomly selected test specimens ofone material (0.42 pcf by 1 in.) were tested for wicking in eachof five laboratories with each laboratory testing thre
