Hygrothermal performance of building materials and products - Determination of hygroscopic sorption properties (ISO 12571:2013)
This International Standard specifies two alternative methods for determining hygroscopic sorption properties of porous building materials and products: a) using desiccators and weighing cups (desiccator method); b) using a climatic chamber (climatic chamber method). The desiccator method is the reference method. This International Standard does not specify the method for sampling. The methods specified in this International Standard can be used to determine the moisture content of a sample in equilibrium with air at a specific temperature and humidity.
Wärme- und feuchtetechnisches Verhalten von Baustoffen und Bauprodukten - Bestimmung der hygroskopischen Sorptionseigenschaften (ISO 12571:2013)
Diese Norm legt zwei alternative Verfahren zur Bestimmung des hygroskopischen Sorptionseigenschaften von porösen Baustoffen und -produkten fest:
a) Verfahren unter Verwendung von Exsikkatoren und Wiegebehältern (Exsikkatorverfahren);
b) Verfahren unter Verwendung einer Klimakammer (Klimakammerverfahren).
Das Exsikkatorverfahren ist das Referenzverfahren. Die Norm legt kein Verfahren für die Probenentnahme fest. Die in dieser Norm festgelegten Verfahren können angewendet werden, um den Feuchtegehalt einer Probe im Gleichgewichtszustand mit Luft von einer bestimmten Temperatur und Feuchte zu bestimmen.
Performance hygrothermique des matériaux et produits pour le bâtiment - Détermination des propriétés de sorption hygroscopique (ISO 12571:2013)
L'ISO 12571:2013 décrit deux méthodes de détermination des propriétés de sorption hygroscopique des matériaux et produits poreux utilisés dans le bâtiment:
a) la méthode utilisant des dessiccateurs et des coupelles de pesée (méthode du dessiccateur);

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.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International
Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies
casting a vote.
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.
ISO 12571 was prepared by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) in collaboration
with Technical Committee ISO/TC 163, Thermal performance and energy use in the built environment,
Subcommittee SC 1, Test and measurement methods in accordance with the Agreement on technical
cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 12571:2000), which has been
technically revised.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 12571:2013(E)
Hygrothermal performance of building materials and
products — Determination of hygroscopic sorption
properties
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies two alternative methods for determining hygroscopic sorption
properties of porous building materials and products:
a) using desiccators and weighing cups (desiccator method);
b) using a climatic chamber (climatic chamber method).
The desiccator method is the reference method.
This International Standard does not specify the method for sampling.
The methods specified in this International Standard can be used to determine the moisture content of
a sample in equilibrium with air at a specific temperature and humidity.
2 Normative references
The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated
references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced
document (including any amendments) applies.

appropriate drying temperature until constant mass is reached.

4 Principle
4.1 Sorption curve
The specimen is dried to constant mass. While maintaining a constant temperature, the specimen is
placed consecutively in a series of test environments, with relative humidity increasing in stages. The
moisture content is determined when equilibrium with each environment is reached. Equilibrium with
the environment is established by weighing the specimen until constant mass is reached. A minimum of
four test atmospheres shall be selected in the humidity range under consideration.
After establishing the moisture content at each relative humidity the sorption curve can be drawn.
4.2 Desorption curve
The starting point for desorption is a relative humidity of at least 95 %. This might be the last point
of the sorption curve or might be reached by sorption from a dried test specimen. While maintaining
a constant temperature, the specimen is placed consecutively in a series of test environments, with
relative humidity decreasing in stages. The moisture content is determined when equilibrium with each
environment is reached. Equilibrium with the environment is established by weighing the specimen
until constant mass is reached. A minimum of four test atmospheres shall be selected in the humidity
range under consideration. Finally, the specimen is dried to constant mass.
After establishing the moisture content at each relative humidity the desorption curve can be drawn.
NOTE A defined starting point for desorption has been chosen for better reproducibility.

5 Apparatus
5.1 Desiccator method
The test apparatus shall include:
a) weighing cups which do not absorb water and with tight-fitting lids;
b) balance, capable of weighing to an accuracy of ± 0,01 % of the mass of the test specimen;
NOTE If larger weighing cups are used, the weighing accuracy can be determined with respect to the
total mass and the required accuracy of the test results.
c) drying oven, in accordance with ISO 12570;
d) desiccator, capable of maintaining the relative humidity within ± 2 % relative humidity;
e) constant-temperature chamber, capable of maintaining the specified test temperature to an
accuracy of ± 0,5 K.
5.2 Climatic chamber method
The test apparatus shall include:
a) weighing cups which do not absorb water;
b) balance, capable of weighing to an accuracy of ± 0,01 % of the mass of the test specimen;

A test specimen shall be representative of the product and have a mass of at least 10 g. Specimens of

materials with a dry density less than 300 kg/m shall have an area of at least 100 mm × 100 mm. If it
can be demonstrated from other references that the result will not be affected, a test specimen can be
cut or crushed into smaller pieces to reduce the time to reach equilibrium with the environment.
6.2 Number of test specimens
A minimum of three specimens shall be tested. The procedure in Clause 7 shall be applied to each specimen.
7 Procedure
7.1 Test conditions
Reference sorption curves shall be established at a temperature of (23 ± 0,5) °C or (27 ± 0,5) °C in tropical
countries. If agreed between the parties, sorption curves can be established at other temperatures for
specific applications.
