Significance and Use
4.1 This test method offers a means of determining the working time, initial setting time and service strength setting time of chemically setting chemical-resistant silicate and silica mortars.
1. Scope
1.1 This test method offers a means of determining the working time, setting time, and service strength setting time of chemically setting, chemical-resistant silicate and silica mortars.
Note 1—
For chemical-resistant resin mortars refer to Test Methods C308. 1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
