Test Backgrounds :

Plastic Flexible Concealed Water-Containment Membrane Sampling:

25 Membranes were randomly Selected, Geometric Mean : 20

(ASTM D 1898 : Practice for Sampling of Plastics)

* No Production Lot Number was issued with this material.

Test Procedures:

Tests were performed in accordance with ASTM D 4551 - 86b, Sec. 11

Micro-organism Resistance Test : Basic Medium - Mixed Culture (Fungi) (ASTM D 874 - 84)

Test Results : No Color Change on Surface Characteristics by Visual Observation.
Physical Observation : No weight Change.

Hydrostatic Pressure Test:

Specimens : 3 Specimens of flat material 3 by 3 inch selected in accordance with ASTM D 4551, 12.1

Inner Dia. of the Pressure Tube : 2 inch

Outer Dia. of the Pressure Tube : 3 inch

Observations : Made observations at 10-min. intervals for the first hour, and at hourly intervals for the succeeding 7 hours, after which left the specimen under hydrostatic pressure for 40 hours and examined again. : No evidence of wetness on top of the material or the formation of a droplet found.
