Historical Standard: ASTM C1263-95(2000) Standard Test Method for Thermal Integrity of Flexible Water Vapor Retarders
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM C1263
1. Scope
1.1 This test method covers the visual determination of the thermal integrity of flexible water vapor retarders for those materials classified under Specification C1136, including plastic, foil, or paper and composites of two or more of these materials to temperatures listed in the specification or purchase contract. The vapor retarders are intended for use at temperatures of -20 to 150 o F (-29 to 66 o C). This test method does not cover mastics or barrier coatings applied in liquid form or materials intended for use as weather barriers.
1.2 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.
