10、for low temperature flexibility (see 7.1) when tested at 18C(0F).4.1.4 Grade 0CA sealant that meets the requirements forlow temperature flexibility (see 7.1) when tested at 0C (32F).4.1.5 Grade NFA sealant that does not meet the require-ments for low temperature flexibility of Grade 0C (see 4.1.4).5

11、. Materials and Manufacture5.1 The sealant shall be composed of latex formulated withappropriate fillers, pigments, and chemical additives to result inconformance to this specification.5.2 All material and workmanship shall be in accordancewith good commercial practice. The producer is permitted awi

12、de latitude in choice of raw materials for making theseproducts. Consequently, there is no implication that the com-pounds are equivalent in all physical properties.5.3 The manufacturing process shall be such as will ensurea homogeneous mix, free of defects that would affectserviceability, and provi

General Requirements6.1 The sealant in the original unopened container shallmeet the requirements of this specification for at least 12mo

16、nths from the date of manufacture when stored at atemperature neither below 5C (41F) nor exceeding 26.7C(80F).6.2 After 21 days cure at standard conditions, the color ofthe sealant shall be that color that has been agreed uponbetween the purchaser and the supplier.6.3 The sealant is intended for app

17、lication 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 oflatex sealants as described in Section 4 that ar

18、e 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, that the type and gradebe specified for proper descr

19、iption 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 information on the proper useof sealants meeting this

20、 specification.9. 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 tests at standard condi-tions. Condition sealant samp
