This document specifies the equipment and procedures for determining the long-term water absorption
of test specimens by diffusion. It is applicable to thermal insulating products. It is intended to simulate
the water absorption of products subjected to high relative humidities, approximating to 100 %, on
both sides and subjected to a water vapour pressure gradient for a long period of time e.g. inverted roof
or unprotected ground insulation.
The test is not applicable for all types of thermal insulating products. The relevant product standard
should state for which of its products, if any, this test is applicable.Cross References:ISO 29768All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
