Summary of Test Method3.1 The treated cementitious substrate is sealed to the openmouth of an assembly containing water with the treated sidefacing the wate

8、r, and the assembly placed in a test chamberwith a controlled atmosphere maintained at 50 6 5 % relativehumidity at 23 6 2C (73.5 6 3.5F). Periodic weighings ofthe assembly are made to determine the rate of water vapormovement through the specimen.4. Significance and Use4.1 One of the factors affect

9、ing the performance providedby a cementitious treatment is how readily water vapor passesthrough it. Hence, the water vapor transmission characteristicsof treatments are important in assessing their performance inpractical use.4.2 The purpose of this test method is to obtain values ofwater vapor tra

10、nsfer through treatments that range in perme-ability from high to low. These values are for use in design,manufacture, and marketing.4.3 Water vapor transmission is not a linear function of filmthickness, temperature or relative humidity.4.4 Values of water vapor transmission rate (WVT) andwater vap

11、or permeance (WVP) can be used in the relativerating of treatments only if the treatments are tested under thesame closely controlled conditions of temperature and relativehumidity.5.

15、 depth of atleast 5 mm (0.2 in.). The assembly should be made of anoncorroding material, impermeable to water or water vapor inorder to be found acceptable. The treated cementitious sub-strate can be sealed with wax or sealant to the assembly. If theassembly is made of aluminum, it must be anodized

16、or given aprotective clear coating to prevent corrosion.5.2 Test Chamber, with a controlled temperature and rela-tive humidity as specified in Section 3. Air shall be circulatedthroughout the chamber to maintain uniform conditions at alltest locations.NOTE 1For maintaining constant relative humiditi

17、es other than thosespecified in 3.1, by means of aqueous solutions, refer to proceduresoutlined in Practice E 104.5.3 Analytical Balance, having an adequate capacity for theweight of the test assemblies and a sensitivity of 10 mg (0.0002lb).6. Reagents and Materials6.1 Purity of Water, unless otherw

18、ise indicated, reference towater shall be understood to mean reagent water conforming toType IV of Specification D 1193.6.2 Sealant, such as wax for attaching the coated panel tothe top of the test assembly. It must be highly resistant to thepassage of water vapor. It must not lose weight to, nor ga

19、inweight from the atmosphere in an amount, over the requiredperiod of time, that would affect the test results by more than2 %. It must not affect the vapor pressure in a water-filledassembly.NOTE 2Among acceptable sealants are (1) a 60:40 mixture ofmicrocrystalline wax and refined crystalline paraf

20、in wax, (2) tissueembedding wax, and (3) a 50:50 mixture of beeswax and rosin.7. Test Specimen7.1 Suggested cementitious substrates to be used should be75 by 150 by 15 mm (3 by 6 by916 in.) as outlined in PracticeD 1734. Before use, the substrates should be removed fromstorage in water, dried at 80

21、6 5C (176 6 9F) until a constantweight has been reached. A constant weight shall be assumedwhen the specimen weighed to the nearest 0.1 g loses not morethan 0.1 % in any 4-h period. Allow specimens to cool andstore at standard conditions as outlined in Specification D 3924before use.7.2 Apply treatm

22、ent to one face of the test substrates usingone of the methods described in Practices D 823 or by brushfollowing manufacturers application instructions. The amountof material (spreading rate) applied to the substrate must thenbe calculated and reported.7.3 Air-dry the treated substrate in a horizont

23、al position for7 days in a room preferably maintained at 236 2C (73.5 63.5F) and 50 6 5 % relative humidity as outlined in Specifi-cation D 3924. The drying schedule may be modified asrecommended by manufacturer.8. Procedure8.1 Prepare at least three test assemblies for each testmaterial as follows:

24、8.1.1 Fill the assembly with water to within 20 6 5mm(0.8 6 0.2 in. ) of the treated substrate.8.1.2 Seal the treated substrate to the top edge of theassembly with wax or sealant with the treated face placedfacing the water.8.2 Weigh the test assemblies to 0.1 g. and place them in thetest chamber. R

25、ecord time, temperature, and relative humidity.Unless other conditions are agreed upon between the purchaserand the seller, perform the test(s) in a chamber maintained at 236 2C (73 6 3.5F) and 50 6 5 % relative humidity.8.2.1 In general, the test assemblies should be weighedevery 24 h for a period

26、of time until the weight change per 24h has become consistent. The time that weighings are takenshould be recorded to the precision of approximately 1 % ofthe time span between weighings. Thus, if weighings are madeevery day, a time to the nearest 15 min would be allowed.8.2.2 Treatments expected to

27、 have high WVT ratings, over6.7 metric perms (10 perms), may require weighings morefrequently than once a day.8.3 Return the test assemblies to the test chamber immedi-ately after weighings.9. Calculation9.1 For each material tested, plot the weight changes againstelapsed time. When a straight line

28、adequately fits the plot of atleast four properly spaced points, a nominal steady state existsand the slope of the straight line is the rate of water vaportransmission.9.2 Calculate one or more of the following, depending of thewater vapor transmission characteristics to be determined:9.2.1 Calculat
