Consequently, there is no implication that the com-pounds are equivalent in all physical properties.5.3 The manufacturing process shall be such as

15、 will ensurea homogeneous mix, free of defects that would affect service-ability, and provide a consistency suitable for immediateapplication.6. General Requirements6.1 The sealant in the original unopened container shallmeet the requirements of this specification for at least 12months from the date

16、 of manufacture when stored at atemperature neither below 5C (41F) nor exceeding 26.7C(80F).6.2 After 21 days cure at laboratory conditions controlled at23 6 2C (73 6 3.6F) and 50 6 10 % relative humidity, thecolor of the sealant shall be that color that has been agreedupon between the purchaser and

17、 the supplier.6.3 The sealant is intended for application to clean substratesurfaces only.7. Physical Properties7.1 The sealant shall conform to the physical requirementsspecified in Table 1 according to type and grade.8. Significance and Use8.1 This specification covers two types and three grades o

18、flatex sealants as described in Section 4 that are formulated forgeneral caulking and sealing operations in building construc-tion. It should be recognized by the user that not all sealantsmeeting this specification are suitable for all applications andall substrates. It is essential, therefore, tha

19、t the type and gradebe specified for proper description of a sealant. Test methodsrelate to special standard substrates of glass, wood and alumi-num. If tests are required using substrates in addition to orother than standard, they should be so specified for testing.8.2 Refer to Guide C1193 for info

Sampling9.1 The sealant to be tested for conformance to this speci-fication shall be taken directly from a randomly selectedcontainer as commercially supplied by the manufacturer.10. Test Methods10.1 Perform all of the following test
