1、Designation:D103712(Reapproved 2020)Standard Test Methods forEvaluating Properties of Wood-Base Fiber and ParticlePanel Materials1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D1037;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revisi
2、on,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S.Department of Defense.INTRODUCTIONThe test methods prese
3、nted herein have been developed and are presented to serve two distinctpurposes.They are divided into two parts.Part A.General Test Methods for Evaluating the Basic Properties of Wood-Base Fiber and ParticlePanel MaterialsPart A is for use in obtaining basic properties suitable for comparison studie
4、s withother materials of construction.These refined test methods are applicable for this purpose to allmaterials covered by Definitions D1554.Part B.Acceptance and Specification Test Methods for HardboardPart B is for specific use inspecifications for procurement and acceptance testing of hardboard.
5、These test methods are generallyemployed for those purposes in the industry.By confining their intended use as indicated,it has beenpossible to achieve adequate precision of results combined with economy and speed in testing,whichare desirable for specification use.The choice between a particular te
6、st method and its alternative should be made with a fullunderstanding of the intended purpose of each,because values obtained from tests may,in some cases,differ.Of the test methods presented in both parts,some have been in generally accepted use for manyyears,some are modifications and refinements
