ASTM C1483/C1483M-17(2022)

Annotation of standard text ASTM C1483/C1483M-17(2022) :

This specification provides the general physical and mechanical requirements for liquid-applied exterior solar radiation control coatings designed for exterior application on buildings or other structures for the purpose of reducing thermal loads on buildings by reflecting solar radiation from roofs and walls. The specification also includes the testing procedures by which the acceptability of the material may be determined. The physical and mechanical properties to which the coatings shall be tested and accordingly adhere to are total solid weight, solid volume, solar reflectance, infrared emittance, elongation, adhesion, water vapor permeance, flame retardancy, fungi resistance, water absorption, cured sample thickness, and outdoor durability.
