ISO 11527:2018 PDF Download

ISO 11527:2018 is a standard that outlines a test method for evaluating the stringiness of a wet-applied sealant used in buildings and civil engineering works. The purpose of this standard is to provide a consistent and reliable method for assessing the ability of a sealant to flow and spread when applied.

The test method involves spreading the sealant on a vertical glass plate and measuring the length of the string formed as the sealant is pulled away. This measurement provides an indication of the viscous and adhesive properties of the sealant and its ability to maintain its integrity under stress.

By establishing a standardized test procedure, ISO 11527:2018 enables manufacturers and users of sealants to compare and select products based on their stringiness characteristics. This helps ensure the quality and performance of sealants used in building and civil engineering applications, promoting safety, durability, and efficiency in construction projects.
