ASTM C1806-21 PDF

Scope: 1.1 This test method describes a procedure for determining the flow rate of aerosol foam sealants. 1.2 Flow rate is determined in a controlled laboratory environment with manual dispensing (Method A) or using a flow rate machine (Method B). 1.3 Currently, two foam sealant types are applicable to this test method: single component polyurethane and latex. 1.4 There are no other known test methods specific for measuring the flow rate of aerosol foam sealants. 1.5 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard. 1.6 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, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.7 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
