Thermal insulating products for building applications - Determination of freeze-thaw resistance (ISO 16546:2020); German version EN ISO 16546:2020
Abstract
This document specifies the equipment and test method for determining the effects of successive cycling from dry conditions at -20 °C to wet conditions at +20 °C on the mechanical properties and moisture content of the product. It is applicable to thermal insulating products. The propose of this document is to simulate the freeze-thaw effects on thermal insulating products which are frequently exposed to water and low temperature conditions, e.g. inverted roofs and unprotected ground insulation. The test is to be performed continuously using an automatic process of cycling between the specified conditions. This test method is not recommended for all thermal insulating products. If relevant, the product standards will state for which products this International Standard is applicable.
