Standard ENStandard Specification for Atactic Polypropylene (APP) Modified Bituminous Sheet Materials Using a Combination of Polyester and Glass Fiber Reinforcements
Also Known As:
The ASTM D6223/D6223M-16 standard specifies the requirements for prefabricated bituminous sheet materials that are reinforced with a combination of polyester fabric and glass fiber and modified with atactic polypropylene (APP). These materials are primarily used in the fabrication of multiple ply roofing and waterproofing membranes.
It is important to note that this standard is focused on material specifications only, and does not address issues related to the suitability of specific roof constructions or application techniques. The tests and property limits mentioned in the standard are used to establish minimum properties for the sheet materials.
It is also mentioned that factors such as fire resistance, field strength, impact/puncture resistance, material compatibility, uplift resistance, and the need for field applied coatings are beyond the scope of this material specification.
The standard specifies various physical properties that the sheet materials must conform to, including peak load before and after heat conditioning, elongation at peak load, tear strength, low temperature flexibility, dimensional stability, compound stability, granule embedment, water absorption, moisture content, and low temperature unrolling.
