Buildings and Civil Engineering Works - Determination of the Staining of Porous Substrates by Sealants Used in Joints - Part 2: Test Without Compression
Also Known As:
ISO 16938-2 is a standard that focuses on determining the staining of porous substrates by sealants used in joints, specifically in the context of buildings and civil engineering works. The standard provides a method for conducting tests without compression, specifically targeting porous materials such as marble, limestone, sandstone, and granite.
The purpose of the test is to evaluate the potential for staining caused by the sealants on the aforementioned porous substrates. The outcome of the test is specific to the sealant and substrate under examination, and cannot be generalized to other sealant formulations or different porous substrates. In other words, the results obtained from this test cannot be extrapolated to predict the behavior of other sealants on other types of porous materials.
