Annotation of standard text ASTM C1313/C1313M-13(2019) :

This specification covers the general physical property requirements of radiant barrier materials for use in building construction. The scope is specifically limited to requirements for radiant barrier sheet materials that consist of at least one surface, such as metallic foils or metallic deposits mounted or unmounted on substrates. Sheet radiant barrier materials shall consist of low emittance surface(s) that may be in combination with any substrates and adhesives required to meet the specified physical material properties. The following test methods shall be performed: surface emittance; water vapor transmission; surface burning characteristics; corrosivity; tear resistance; and adhesive performance.

Keywords:
aluminum foil, low emittance, radiant barrier, radiant barrier system, radiation, reflectance, sheet radiant barrier ,, ICS Number Code 91.120.10 (Thermal insulation of buildings)

Additional information

Significance and Use

8.1 This specification recognizes that the effectiveness of a sheet radiant barrier is dependent on proper installation. Practices C1743 and C1744 address use and installation of radiant barriers.

8.2 This specification identifies the material properties that are important for sheet radiant barrier products. When appropriate, values for the properties have been stated.

8.3 When specific material properties are required for a particular application the user shall consult the manufacturer.

8.4 Radiant barriers shall be free of dust or other contaminants to remain effective.

1. Scope

1.1 This specification covers the general physical property requirements of radiant barrier materials for use in building construction. The scope is specifically limited to requirements for radiant barrier sheet materials that consist of at least one surface having a far-infrared emittance of 0.1 or less, such as metallic foils or metallic deposits mounted or unmounted on substrates.

1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system are not necessarily exact equivalents; therefore, to ensure conformance with the standard, each system shall be used independently of the other, and values from the two systems shall not be combined.

1.3 The following safety hazards caveat pertains only to the test methods (Section 10) described in this specification. 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, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
