1、Designation: C 731 00 (Reapproved 2006)Standard Test Method forExtrudability, After Package Aging, of Latex Sealants1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C 731; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the yea

2、r of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers a laboratory procedure for thedetermination of extrudability of latex sealants after fre

3、eze-thaw and heat cycling.1.2 The values stated in metric (SI) units are to be regardedas the standard. The values given in parentheses are forinformation only.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the use

4、r of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.NOTE 1Currently there is no ISO standard similar to this test method.2.

5、lants3. Terminology3.1 DefinitionRefer to Terminology C 717 for defini-tions of the following terms used in this test method: latexsealant, sealant.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 After being subjected to 5 freeze-thaw cycles followedby 7 days of heat aging, the sealant is extruded under pressurefrom a

6、n air-powered caulking gun, and the extrudability ismeasured in grams per second.5. Significance and Use5.1 Extrudability measurements of latex sealants serve toindicate only their ease of application; they do not predict theperformance capability of the compound after installation.5.2 This test met

7、hod also measures freeze-thaw and heatstability of such sealants.6. Apparatus6.1 Caulking Gun, air-powdered.6.2 Polyethylene Cartridge, 6 fluid oz. and plunger.6.3 Polyethylene Cartridge Nozzle,64mm(212 in.) inlength with 3-mm (18-in.) orifice.6.4 Air Compressor, capable of producing 50 psi (0.34MPa

Sampling7.1 After conditioning as specified in 8.1

9、, take the sealant tobe tested directly from a container as commercially supplied bythe manufacturer.8. Conditioning8.1 Subject the sealant in its original container to 5 freeze-thaw cycles, each cycle consisting of 16 h at 176 1C (0 62F) and8hat236 1C (73.46 2F), followed by 7 days at50 6 1C (122 6

10、 2F).8.2 Condition the sealant which is still in its originalcontainer, for a minimum of 5 days at 23 6 1C (73.4 6 2F)and 50 6 5 % relative humidity.8.3 Condition the polyethylene cartridge for a minimum of16 h at the same conditions as specified in 8.2.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of
