7、d ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technica
8、l committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of ele
9、ctrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to th
10、e member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for ide
11、ntifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 20393 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 61, Plastics, Subcommittee SC 10, Cellular plastics. INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 20393:2007(E) ISO 2007 All rights reserved 1 Thermal-insulating materials Determination of long-term water absorption by diffus
12、ion 1 Scope This International Standard specifies equipment and procedures for determining the long-term water absorption of test specimens by diffusion. It is intended for use with thermal-insulation products. It is designed to simulate the absorption of water by products subjected for a long perio
13、d of time not only to high relative humidity, approximating to 100 %, on both sides, but also to a water vapour pressure gradient, as experienced by e.g. inverted roof or unprotected ground insulation. The test is not applicable to all types of thermal-insulation product. The product standard should
14、 normally state whether this test is applicable to a particular product. NOTE For unprotected ground insulation, a lower temperature might, when more data is available, replace the test temperature of 50 C currently specified in this International Standard. 2 Normative references The following refer
15、enced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. ISO 472, Plastics Vocabulary ISO 1923, Cellular plastics and rubbers
16、 Determination of linear dimensions 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in ISO 472 apply. 4 Principle The long-term water absorption by diffusion is determined by measuring the increase in mass of a test specimen when it is subjected to a water
17、vapour pressure difference and temperature gradient between its upper and lower surfaces for a period of 28 days. 5 Apparatus and materials 5.1 Balance, capable of determining the mass of the test specimen to within 0,1 g. 5.2 Corrosion-resistant container, with a frame supporting the test specimen.
18、 5.3 Heating device, with a thermostat capable of controlling the water temperature at (50 1) C. 5.4 Cooling plate, thermally insulated on the outside, operating at a temperature of (1 0,5) C. 5.5 Tap water, kept at a temperature of (50 1) C.

The test specimens shall be squares, wit
21、h squarely cut edges, having sides of length (500 1) mm. If the product is not large enough to permit this size of test specimen, the test specimen size shall be reduced accordingly. Test specimens shall contain no joints. 6.2 Number The number of test specimens shall be at least two. 6.3 Preparatio
22、n The test specimens shall be cut so that they do not include original product edges. Test specimens shall be prepared by methods that do not substantially change the original structure of the product. Any facings, skins and/or coatings shall be retained. NOTE Special methods of preparation, when ne
23、eded, are given in the relevant product standard. 6.4 Conditioning The test specimens shall be conditioned for at least 6 h at (23 2) C and (50 10) % relative humidity or (23 5) C and 20 10 50 + % relative humidity or (27 5) C and 20 10 65 + % relative humidity. In cases of dispute, they shall be co
24、nditioned at (23 2) C and (50 5) % relative humidity for the time stated in the relevant product standard, but in any case for a minimum of 6 h. 7 Procedure Measure the dimensions of the test specimens in accordance with ISO 1923. Weigh the test specimen to the nearest 0,1 g to determine its initial
25、 mass, m 0 . Place the test specimen on the frame of the container. If the product is faced on one side, begin the test with the facing uppermost. Seal the bottom edge of the test specimen to the container. The width of the seal shall be u 10 mm (see Figure 1). Place the insulated cooling plate on t
26、op of the test specimen. Subject the test specimen to a temperature and water vapour pressure difference for 28 days, maintaining the tap water at a temperature of (50 1) C and the cooling plate on the other side at a temperature of (1 0,5) C. Turn the test specimen over every 7 days. After 28 days,
27、 remove the test specimen and wipe off any surface water. Weigh the test specimen again to determine its mass, m D . ISO 20393:2007(E) 4 ISO 2007 All rights reserved8 Calculation and expression of results For each test specimen, calculate the long-term water absorption by diffusion, W dPor W dV , in

29、ressure difference for 28 days, in kilograms; A pis the area of the lower surface of the test specimen, in square metres; d is the thickness of the test specimen, in metres; Wis the density of water, assumed to be 1 000 kg/m 3 . The test result shall be taken as the mean value of the individual valu
30、es, rounded to the nearest 0,01 kg/m 2in the case of W dPand to the nearest 0,1 % by volume in the case of W dV . Results shall not be extrapolated to other thicknesses. 9 Precision It has not been possible to include a statement on the precision of the measurements in this edition of this Internati
