1、Designation:D4830/D4830M98(Reapproved 2021)Standard Test Methods forCharacterizing Thermoplastic Fabrics Used in Roofing andWaterproofing1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D4830/D4830M;the number immediately following the designation indicates theyear of original adoption or,in the
2、 case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of lastreapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 These test methods cover the procedures for character-izing thermoplastic fabrics(for example
3、 polyester,polyamide,polypropylene,and so forth)used in prefabricated roofing andwaterproofing membranes.1.2 Procedures appear in the following order:SectionUnit Mass3Thickness4Breaking Load,Elongation,and Work-to-Break5Trapezoid Tearing Strength6Puncture Strength7Static Heat Stability8Dynamic Heat
4、Stability91.3 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard.The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents;therefore,eachsystem shall be used independently of the other.Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in nonconformance
