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 16938-2:2019 standard provides a specific method for assessing the potential staining of porous substrates caused by sealants used in construction. The standard focuses on porous materials such as marble, limestone, sandstone, or granite.
The purpose of this method is to evaluate the likelihood of a sealant causing staining on a porous substrate due to the release of materials from the sealant. It is important to note that the test results are specific to the sealant and substrate combination being tested and cannot be generalized to other sealant formulations or porous substrates.
The test itself is an accelerated procedure that simulates potential staining conditions. If the sealant does not cause any staining or discoloration during the test, it does not necessarily mean that the sealant will not cause staining or discoloration over a longer period of time.
