Note: Nothing in this standard supercedes applicable laws and regulations.

Note: In the event of conflict between the English and domestic language, the English language shall take precedence.

Purpose. This test method shall be used to determine the effects of humidity aging on cellular materials. The test attempts, by the use of water vapor at elevated temperature, to simulate the naturally occurring effects of oxidation and hydrolysis. Deterioration of the material is observed by measurements of physical properties prior to and after aging.

Applicability. Cellular Materials.
