2、n, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method measures the volumetric expansion of aerosol foam sealants after dispensing.1.2 This t

3、est method provides a means for estimating the quantity of initial material required to dispense in order to fill a cavity.1.3 Aerosol foam sealants are used for a variety of applications intended to reduce airflow through the building envelope.1.4 This test method applies to two types of single com

4、ponent aerosol foam sealants: polyurethane and latex.1.5 There are no other known standard test methods to measure aerosol foam sealants post dispensing expansion.1.6 Values are reported in SI units only. Certain apparatus and supply items are referenced in inch-pound units for purchasingpurposes.1.

Summary of Test Method4.1 Procedure AFor single component polyurethane aerosol foam sealants.4.1.1 Aerosol foam sealant is dispensed into aluminum channels.4.1.2 Post dispensing volumetric expansion is determined

8、by the volume of the foam expanded from the channel.4.1.3 Post dispensing volumetric expansion factor is calculated by measuring the volumetric displacement of the cured foam.4.2 Procedure BFor single component latex aerosol foam sealants.4.2.1 Aerosol foam sealant is dispensed onto aluminum panels.

9、4.2.2 Post dispensing volumetric expansion is measured by the change of the foam height.4.2.3 Post dispensing volumetric expansion factor is calculated by measuring the height of the foam.5. Significance and Use5.1 Post dispensing volumetric expansion factor F indicates the ratio of the fully cured

10、foam sealant volume and the initiallydispensed foam sealant volume. For example, if the expansion factor F were 2, the fully cured foam would double its initialvolume; therefore, one should fill 50 % of the cavity uniformly to anticipate the full coverage upon curing.1 This test method is under the
