Ordering Information4.1 The purchaser shall include the following information inthe purchase order when applicable:4.1.1 Type of liquid membrane-forming compound andclass of solids to be furnished, and4.1.2 Rate of application to be used to determine conform-ance to thi

18、s specification. If not specified, the liquid membrane-forming material shall be applied at a rate of 5.0 m2/L (200ft2/gal) for testing purposes.NOTE 4The application rate used for testing may, or may not, be thesame as the rate to be used for field application. Many agencies use thesame rate for fi

19、eld application on relatively smooth surfaces as the rateused for testing, while requiring a substantially greater field applicationrate on deeply textured surfaces.4.1.3 The intended method of application (for example,spraying, brushing, or by roller). If not specified, the materialshall be of a sp

20、rayable consistency.4.1.4 Maximum permissible volatile organic compound(VOC) content if required by applicable regulations.5. General Requirements5.1 Liquid membrane-forming compound Types 1 and 1-Dshall be clear or translucent. Membrane-forming compoundswith a fugitive dye (Type 1-D) shall be readi

21、ly distinguishableupon the concrete surface for at least 4 h after application butshall become inconspicuous within 7 days after application ifexposed to direct sunlight.NOTE 5No laboratory test for the fugitive characteristic of the color indyed (Type 1-D) compounds is provided in this specificatio

22、n. Thedisappearance of these colors is strongly dependent on the nature of theexposure and the rate of application of the compounds.5.2 Type 2 liquid membrane-forming compounds shall con-sist of finely-divided white pigment and vehicle, ready-mixedfor immediate use as is. The membrane-forming compou

23、ndshall present a uniform white appearance when applied uni-formly to a new concrete surface at the specified rate ofapplication.5.3 Liquid membrane-forming compounds shall be of sucha consistency that they can be readily applied by spraying, orby brushing or rolling, when specified, to a uniform co

24、ating attemperatures above 4 C (40 F).NOTE 6For uniform application in the field on vertical concretesurfaces, the specified rate of application may be achieved by two coatsapplied at an interval of approximately 1 h.5.4 Liquid membrane-forming compounds shall adhere tofreshly placed concrete that h

25、as stiffened or set sufficiently toresist marring during application, and to damp, hardenedconcrete, and shall form a continuous film when applied at thespecified rate of application.5.5 Liquid membrane-forming compounds shall not reactdeleteriously with concrete. Deleterious reactions are detectedb

26、y scratching the surface of a mortar specimen (used for thewater-retention test) with a knife or screwdriver, not less than72 h after application, and comparing with the surface hardnesssimilarly determined of a similar specimen that has beenmoist-cured for approximately half as long. Any softening

27、ofthe liquid membrane-forming compound-treated surface indi-cated by such a comparison shall be considered sufficient causefor rejection of the compound.NOTE 7Testing for deleterious reactions need only be done for curingcompounds of a new or unknown composition.5.6 Liquid membrane-forming compounds

28、 shall be storablefor at least 6 months without deterioration, except compoundsof the water-emulsion type will not be expected to resistfreezing. Type 2 liquid membrane-forming compounds shallnot settle out excessively or cake in the container, and shall becapable of being mixed to a uniform consist

29、ency by moderatestirring or agitation. When tested for long-term settling, asstated in 10.4, the compound shall have a rating of not less thanfour.6. Water Retention Properties6.1 Liquid membrane-forming compounds, when tested inaccordance with 10.1, shall restrict the loss of water to notmore than

30、0.55 kg/m2in 72 h.7. Reflectance Properties7.1 Type 2 liquid membrane-forming compounds, whentested in accordance with 10.2, shall exhibit a daylight reflec-tance of not less than 60 %.8. Drying Time Requirement8.1 Liquid membrane-forming compounds, when tested inaccordance with 10.3, shall dry to t

31、ouch in not more than 4 h.9. Sampling9.1 Samples shall be taken either at the plant or warehouseprior to delivery, or at the point of delivery, at the option of thepurchaser. If sampling is done prior to shipment, the inspectorrepresenting the purchaser shall have free access to thematerials being s

32、ampled and shall be afforded all reasonablefacilities for inspection and sampling.9.2 Shake or thoroughly stir liquid membrane-forming com-pounds before taking a sample. Take one sample for each lot,batch, or other unit of production in a shipment. If the liquidmembrane-forming compound is in mixing

33、 tanks or vats, onethird of the sample shall represent the material coming from thetank at the beginning of the filling operation, one third shallrepresent the material coming at the middle of the fillingoperation, and one third shall represent the material coming atthe end of the filling operation.

34、 If the liquid membrane-formingcompound to be sampled is in containers, obtain a sample bytaking a portion out of a number of containers equal in numberto the next integer larger than the cube root of the total numberof containers in the lot.9.3 Seal all of the filled containers represented by thesa

35、mple to prevent leakage, substitution, or dilution. Thesampling agency shall mark each container represented by thesample with a suitable identification mark for later identifica-tion and correlation.C30907210. Test Methods10.1 Water Retention TestUsing the application ratespecified by the purchaser

36、, or 5.0 m2/L (200 ft2/gal) if no rateis specified, test for water retention using Test Method C 156.10.2 Reflectance TestFor Type 2 compounds, on comple-tion of the water retention test, determine the daylight reflec-tance of the specimens in accordance with Test MethodE 1347.NOTE 8Daylight reflect

37、ance is total luminous reflectance factor, CIEtristimulus value Y for CIE 1931 (2) standard observer and CIE standardilluminant C or D56.10.3 Drying Time Test:10.3.1 ScopeThis test method is used to determine thelength of time for a liquid membrane-forming curing com-pound to dry to the touch and de

38、velop into a film that will nottrack off the concrete.10.3.2 Significance and UseThe ability of a liquidmembrane-forming curing compound to dry in a suitablelength of time ensures the user of the ability to perform othertasks on the concrete, such as sawing joints, and so forth,without lifting the m

39、embrane from the concrete by tracking.10.3.3 ProcedureApply the membrane-forming com-pound to a fresh mortar specimen at the specified rate ofapplication and expose it to air at 23 6 2 C (73.4 6 3.6 F),50 6 10 % relative humidity, and at an air velocity of approxi-mately 183 m/min (600 ft/min) horiz

40、ontally across the surfaceof the test specimen. Test the film with the finger usingmoderate pressure. Consider the film to be dry when the softtacky condition no longer exists and the film feels firm.10.3.4 Precision and BiasThe precision for this procedureis still being determined. The value of dry

41、ing time can bedefined only in terms of a test method; therefore, no statementof bias is being made.10.4 Long-Term Settling TestUse Test Method D 1309 forroutine testing. In the case of dispute, use Test Method D 869.10.5 Nonvolatile Content TestTest in accordance withTest Method D 2369.11. Packagin

42、g and Package Marking11.1 The liquid membrane-forming compound shall bedelivered in the manufacturers original, clean, sealed contain-ers. Each container shall be legibly marked with the name ofthe manufacturer, the trade name of the liquid membrane-forming compound, the type of liquid membrane-form

43、ingcompound and class of solids, the nominal percentage ofnonvolatile material, and the manufacturers batch or lotnumber (Note 9). The manufacturer will assign batch or lotnumbers to the quantity of membrane-forming compoundmixed, sampled, and tested as a single lot. The manufacturershall exercise c

44、are in filling the containers so that all areequally representative of the compound produced.NOTE 9The listing of the nominal percentage of nonvolatile materialby the manufacturer, and the reporting of this information on theidentification accompanying the sample, will assist the testing agency inde

45、termining whether the compound in the containers was adequatelystirred and the sample is reasonably representative of the membrane-forming compound produced. Type 2 membrane-forming compounds areespecially prone to separation due to settling of the pigment.12. Keywords12.1 concrete curing; liquid me
