Building Construction - Sealants - Determination of Adhesion/Cohesion Properties of Sealants After Immersion in Water
Also Known As:
The DIN EN ISO 10591 standard is designed to determine the effects of water immersion on the adhesion and cohesion properties of sealants used in building construction. The standard outlines the specific method for evaluating sealants that exhibit predominantly plastic behavior.
The standard covers various aspects such as the principle of the test, the required apparatus, the preparation of the specimens, conditioning methods, the test procedure, and the contents of the test report.
The purpose of this standard is to provide a standardized and repeatable method for evaluating the performance of sealants in a wet environment. This is important in construction, as sealants are commonly used in joints to prevent water infiltration and maintain the structural integrity of buildings.
By subjecting sealants to water immersion and assessing their adhesion/cohesion properties, this standard aims to provide valuable information on the long-term durability and reliability of sealants in wet conditions. This allows builders and contractors to select the most suitable sealants for their specific construction projects.
