The cups weight should be compatible with the measurement method which needs the use of an analytical balance. Test cups shall be resistant to corrosion from the desiccant o

29、r salt solutions. Typically cups are made of glass, metal or PVC. For certain cups and sealing methods, a template, with shape and size corresponding to that of the test cup, is used when applying the sealant to give a sharply defined, reproducible test area. The template shall have an area of at le

30、ast 90 % of the specimen to limit non-linear vapour flow. The sealant, which is impermeable to water vapour, should neither undergo changes during the test nor bring about changes to the test surface of the specimen. NOTE Circular cups can be easier to seal. Transparent cups enable observing the tes

31、t in progress; thus, the saturated state of the salt solutions can be monitored. Examples of suitable sealants: a mixture of 90 % microcrystalline wax and 10 % plasticizer; a mixture of 60 % microcrystalline wax and 40 % refined crystalline paraffin.

In the case of material with a porosity 1 %, an analytical balance with higher resolution (0,000 1 g) is recommended. 6.3 A test chamber to achieve controlled experimental conditions of temperature and relative humidi

34、ty. The temperature is set at (23 1) C. For the relative humidity, a maximum variation of 3 % of the set point 50 % is allowed. The air velocity above the specimens shall not exceed 0,3 m/s and shall not fall short of 0,02 m/s. 6.4 Suitable sensors to continuously record the temperature, relative hu

35、midity and, if necessary, the barometric pressure in the test chamber. The sensors shall be calibrated at regular intervals. 6.5 A barometer with an accuracy of 0,1 kPa. 6.6 A linear measuring device (calliper) with an accuracy of 0,1 mm.

36、ecimens 7.1 Number and dimensions of test specimens The number of specimens is related to the heterogeneity of the material. At least 3 specimens are recommended for the test. In case of anisotropy, each series shall be tested according to the same orientation. The specimens shall be prepared in a w

37、ay that the parallel test faces are perpendicular to the direction of water vapour flow. Specimens shall be cut as to correspond with the dimensions of the chosen test assembly (see 6.1). The thickness of the specimens will influence the time to reach the equilibrium as well as the precision of the

38、test method. For compact and homogeneous materials it is recommended to use specimens of a thickness D of maximum 20 mm. In the case of heterogeneous materials, such as mortars containing coarse aggregates, the thickness of the specimens shall be at least two times the largest particle size. The dia

39、meter of the test area (A) shall be at least two times the specimens thickness. In the case of heterogeneous materials, such as mortars containing coarse aggregates, the diameter of the test area shall be at least five times the largest grain size. The test area shall be the arithmetic mean between

40、the free lower tested surface and its opposite face area. The test area of the two opposite faces shall not deviate more than 10 %. The number and dimension of the specimens can be different in cases when there could be difficulties in sampling the required amount of material. 7.2 Pre-conditioning o

41、f test specimens Before testing, the specimen shall be stored at (23 1) C and (50 3) % relative humidity for a period long enough for their weight to stabilize with the test climatic conditions. Constant mass is reached when the difference between two successive weighings at an interval of 24 h is n

42、ot greater than 0,1 % of the mass of the specimen. 8 Test procedure 8.1 General The test specimen shall be mounted in the cup with the test face up and sealed to the open side of a test cup containing either a desiccant (dry cup) or an aqueous saturated salt solution (wet cup). The assembly shall th

43、en be placed in the pre-conditioned test chamber. Because of the different partial water vapour pressure between the inside of the test cup and the test chamber, a water vapour flow through the specimen occurs. In order to measure the water vapour permeability in the steady state, the mass of the cu

44、p system is periodically determined by means of weighing. 8.2 Test environmental conditions The procedure is based on the “dry cup” or the “wet cup” system and can use the cups shown in Figure 1 or Figure 2. One of the cup systems presented in Table 1 shall be selected. Only results obtained from te

45、sts using the same cup system can be compared.

46、y cup tests give information about the performance of materials at low humidities when moisture transfer is dominated by vapour diffusion. Wet cup tests give guidance about the performance of materials under high humidity conditions. At high humidity (93 %), the specimen pores start to fill with wat

47、er which increases transport of liquid water and reduces vapour transport. Consequently, test results obtained under these conditions give some information about liquid water transport properties in porous materials. Adequate saturated salt solutions or gels are examples of suitable sorbents. The fo

48、llowing desiccants and saturated aqueous solutions produce the specified relative air humidity at 23 C: Silica gel: 0 to 3 %; Magnesium nitrate Mg(NO3)2: 53 %; Calcium nitrate Ca(NO3)2: 50 %; Ammonium dihydrogen phosphate NH4H2PO4: 93 %; Potassium nitrate KNO3: 93 %. NOTE Ammonium phosphate is not c

49、ompatible with metal. 8.3 Procedure Prepare the test specimens as specified in 6.1 for the selected test assembly. The thickness of the specimens is measured with an accuracy of 0,1 mm at four positions equally spaced around the circumference. Calculate the mean thickness D. Place the desiccant or aqueous solution with minimum of 15 mm in the bottom of each cup so that the air space between the desiccant or
