Thesealant shall not experience any cracking or crazing whensubjected after
30、 weathering to bending at -26 6-2C -15 63.6F as described in Test Method C793. Evidence of physicalchange in the surface of the material by visual and tactileexamination shall constitute failure of this test. The Acceler-ated Weathering test shall be repeated every 5 years or when aformula change is
31、 made.6.11 ResilienceWhen tested in accordance with 9.11, theresilience of the sealant shall not be less than 75 %.7. Sampling7.1 Samples may be taken at the plant or warehouse prior todelivery or at the time of delivery, at the option of thepurchaser. If sampling is conducted prior to shipment, the
32、inspector representing the purchaser shall have free access tothe material to be sampled. The inspector shall be afforded allreasonable facilities for inspection and sampling that shall beconducted so as not to interfere unnecessarily with the opera-tion of the works.7.2 Samples for testing shall co
33、nsist of not less than 3.78 L1 gal of the sealant. If the sealant is supplied in cartridges, asufficient number of cartridges shall be obtained at random toprovide at least 3.78 L 1 gal. If the sealant is supplied in18.9-L 5-gal or 207.9-L 55-gal containers, the sample shallbe obtained from an unope
34、ned container. The container shall beopened and any surface covering removed to expose thesealant. The required amount of sealant shall be removed fromthe container quickly and placed in a container that willminimize exposure of the sealant to air. The sample containershall be compatible with the se
35、alant. Use of a liner inside thecontainer may assist in minimizing air exposure. The samplecontainer shall be completely filled in a manner that excludesair entrapment and then sealed. A metal can with a doubleD5893/D5393M 102friction lid lined with a polyethylene bag meets these require-ments. Afte
36、r obtaining the sample from containers, any liningor covering shall be replaced to prevent exposure of thematerial remaining in the container to air. The container lidsshall be replaced tightly.7.3 When the sample (other than those in cartridges) fortesting is opened to begin laboratory testing, it
37、shall beexamined for the presence of cured material. Any skins ofcured sealant shall be removed from the sample. The materialtested shall not contain any cured portions. If sufficientquantities of uncured sealant cannot be obtained from thesample, or if cured portions of sealant are noted within the
38、sample (other than surface skins), the sample shall be discardedand a new sample obtained.7.4 After opening and examination of the test sample, alltest specimens shall be prepared without delay to minimizecuring of the sample. The sample should be handled in amanner that minimizes air exposure while
39、 preparing testspecimens. If any cured material skins form on the samplewhile preparing test specimens, the cured material shall beremoved prior to preparing additional specimens.8. Standard Conditions8.1 Standard Conditions for Laboratory TestsThe labora-tory atmospheric conditions, hereinafter ref
40、erred to as standardconditions, shall be 23 6 2C 73.4 6 3.6F and 50 6 5%relative humidity. Condition the sealant sample to be tested forat least 24 h at standard conditions prior to opening andbeginning any tests.9. Test Methods9.1 Cure Evaluation:9.1.1 ScopeThis test method determines that the seal
41、ant iscured to a solid form.9.1.2 Significance and UseThis test method determinesthat the sealant is cured throughout to a solid form in theallotted time so that further testing can be completed.9.1.3 ProcedureMake and cure one bond sample, asspecified in 9.6.4, at laboratory standard conditions for
42、 21 days+ 4 h. To aid with specimen curing, spacers may be removedprior to reaching the specified cure time, provided that thesealant has cured sufficiently so that no damage or distortion ofthe sealant occurs.After 21 days of curing, within +4 h, removeall spacers and other non-adherent surfaces fr
43、om the sealant.Remove the sealant from the concrete block surfaces by slicingcleanly along each concrete-sealant bonding surface with aknife or blade. This produces a sealant portion that has a 12.7by 12.7-mm 0.5 by 0.5-in. cross-sectional area and is 50.8mm 2 in. in length. Immediately slice this s
44、ealant portion inhalf to produce two sealant portions that are 25.4-mm 1-in.long. Immediately examine the 12.7 by 12.7-mm 0.5 by0.5-in. surfaces of the sealant that were exposed by slicing andthe bottom of the sealant portion that was in contact with thespacers or a base sheet for the presence of un
45、cured material, asindicated by sealant that has not changed from a liquid to asolid state. The presence of any uncured sealant shall constitutefailure of this evaluation.9.1.4 Precision and BiasNo information is presentedabout precision or bias of this test method for cure evaluationsince the result

47、est method for evaluating bondperformance.9.6.2 Significance and UseThis test method provides away to determine bond and movement capability.9.6.3 Concrete Block PreparationPrepare concrete testblocks in accordance with Practice D1985. If desired, blocksmay be cut in half to produce blocks that are
48、25.4 by 25.4 by76.2 mm 1 by 1 by 3 in.9.6.3.1 Prepare, store, and clean the blocks in accordancewith the procedure of Test Methods D5329 for bond, non-immersed. After the specified scrubbing and blotting, place theblocks on their 25.4 by 50.8-mm 1 by 2-in. or 25.4 by25.4-mm 1 by 1-in. ends, and allo
49、w them to dry for 16 to 24h at standard laboratory conditions.9.6.4 Specimen PreparationPrepare three test specimensfor each bond evaluation. Assemble each test specimen usingtwo prepared concrete test blocks. Assemble the blocks withtheir 50.8 by 76.2-mm 2 by 3-in. or 25.4 by 76.2-mm 1 by3-in. surfaces facing, using appropriate spacers to form acavity in which the sealant is placed between the blocks, whichis 12.70 + 0.13-mm wide by 12.70 + 0.13-mm deep by 50.80+ 0.13-mm long
