(Specification)Standard Specification for Expandable Foam Adhesives for Fastening Gypsum Wallboard to Wood Framing
Standard Specification for Expandable Foam Adhesives for Fastening Gypsum Wallboard to Wood Framing
ABSTRACT
This specification establishes minimum performance requirements for determining strength, aging, and working properties of expandable foam adhesives intended for bonding back surfaces of gypsum wallboards of all thicknesses to wood framing. Minimum physical and performance requirements are specified for all measured properties of adhesives and adhesive bonds. Shear strength, tensile strength, adhesive open assembly time determination, substrate wet-out by adhesive, accelerated adhesive aging, freeze-thaw stability, suitability of a laminating adhesive for vinyl-covered wallboard, suitability for stain resistance for vinyl-covered wallboard, and gap filling tests shall be performed to conform to the specified requirements.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification establishes minimum performance requirements for determining strength, aging, and working properties of expandable foam adhesives intended for bonding back surfaces of gypsum wallboards of all thicknesses to wood framing. Minimum physical and performance requirements are specified for all measured properties of adhesives and adhesive bonds.
1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
