ASTM WK24646

(What is a Work Item? / How to Input to a Work Item)

Work Item: ASTM WK24646 - Revision of C892-05 Standard Specification for High-Temperature Fiber Blanket Thermal Insulation


Active Standard: C892-05

Developed by Subcommittee: C16.23 | Committee C16 Home | Contact Staff Manager



1. Rationale

This standard needs to be updated with a number of changes. A major one is to remove references to thermal test procedure C201 since that is not a C16 test procedure and created a second table of thermal conductivity values, a situation which generated confusion. Hence, the annex can be dropped. In addition, the thermal conductivity values, using test method C177, are low and need to be raised to more accurately reflect todays products.
