Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to the WTO principles in the Technical
Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following URL: Foreword - Supplementary information

Durability to extension compression cycling under
accelerated weathering

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in ISO 6927 apply.
4 Principle
Test specimens are prepared such that the sealant to be tested adheres to two parallel contact surfaces.
The cured and conditioned test specimens are compressed to a defined width and this compression
is maintained under accelerated weathering conditions. The test specimens are then extended to a
defined width and this extension is maintained under accelerated weathering conditions. The samples
are evaluated to record any loss of adhesion or cohesion is recorded along with recording if light can be
visible through the specimen.

5 Apparatus
5.1 Substrate materials, for the preparation of test specimens as defined in ISO 13640. The substrate
materials shall be selected from mortar type 1 or type 2. Other substrate materials may be used as agreed
by the parties concerned.
For each test specimen, two substrate pieces of the same material are required with a cross section
of dimensions as shown in Figure 1. Test substrates of other dimensions may be used, but then the
dimensions of the sealant bead and the area of adhesion shall be the same as those shown in Figure 1.
5.2 Spacers, cross section (12 mm × 12 mm) with anti-adherent surface. For the preparation of test
specimens see Figure 1.

1 mortar substrates
2 sealant
3 spacer

5.3 Anti-adherent substrate, for the preparation of the test specimens, e.g. polyethylene (PE) film,
according to the advice of the sealant manufacturer. (See ISO 8339, 5.3).
5.4 Tensile test machine, with recording device, capable of extending the test specimens at a rate of
(5,5 ±0,7) mm/min.
5.5 Ventilated convection-type oven, capable of being maintained at (70 ± 2) °C for conditioning
according to method B (see 7.3).

5.6 Container, for immersing test specimens in distilled water for conditioning according to
method B (see 7.3).
5.7 Separators and clamps, with appropriate dimensions to hold the test specimens extended
or compressed to 12,5%, 20%, or 25 % of the original width or any other width agreed between the
parties concerned.
5.8 Measuring device, accuracy to ±0,5 mm.
5.9 Light device, capable of shining light on the back surface of the specimen.
5.10 Fully automated artificial weathering test chamber with an artificial light source, fully
automated test chamber with an artificial light source (see 5.11), shall be used, capable of exposing the
test specimens to radiation under controlled conditions of temperature, relative humidity, and water,
complying with the requirements of ISO 4892-1, ISO 4892-2, ISO 4892-3, and ISO 4892-4. The radiation
is always directed towards the same surface of the sealant specimen. Standard practices for operating
such accelerated weathering chambers are described in ISO 4892-1.
The level of irradiance and water exposure at the specimen surface may not be altered.
In fully automated test equipment, exposure to water for this test method is accomplished by water
spraying the specimen surface or immersing the test specimens in water (see Note 1 and Note
2). Contamination of the water is to be avoided. The purity of the water to be used is described in
ISO 4892-1. The water temperatures are typically (21 ± 5) °C for the spray water and typically (40 ± 5)
°C for the re-circulated immersion water (see Note 3).
Suitable equipment and test procedures for cyclic exposures to water are described in ISO 4892-1,
ISO 4892-2, ISO 4892-3, and ISO 4892-4. Water is a key factor contributing to the ageing of sealants,
especially in combination with exposure to light. In xenon arc devices that use water spray for wetting,
relative humidity during the light period shall be maintained at (50 ± 10) % RH, (see ISO 4892-2:2013,
Table 3, Method A, Cycle Number 1) (see Note 4).
In the immersion technique, the test specimens are placed in a chamber that is periodically flooded
with re-circulated water. During immersion, the specimens are completely covered by water. The
water temperature is measured below the water surface with the black standard thermometer. The
immersion spray water can be at a higher temperature. The uncontrolled temperature of the re-
circulated immersion water during operation of the weathering d
