Description

Significance and Use

This weathering apparatus is used for comparing the weathering characteristics of bituminous materials against a control material for which the outdoor weathering characteristics are known. It is not possible to establish a precise correlation between accelerated and natural weathering because ( 1 ) there are geographical climatic variations, local weather variations, and variations in local pollutants, and ( 2 ) the relation between accelerated and natural weathering is material dependent. Acceleration factors differ between materials as well as between formulations of the same material. Guide G 141 provides guidance regarding this issue.

Note 1—This practice can be used for other than bituminous materials, but the significance and use have not been evaluated.

1. Scope

1.1 This practice describes test conditions and procedures for fluorescent UV and condensation exposures conducted according to Practices G 151 and G 154 for bituminous roofing and waterproofing materials that have a minimum softening point of approximately 95 ° C (200 ° F) as determined by Test Method D 36. (Also see Terminology G 113.)

1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.

1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
