1、Designation:C30703(Reapproved 2012)Standard Test Method forTensile Strength of Chemical-Resistant Mortar,Grouts,andMonolithic Surfacings1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C307;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of
2、revision,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.1.Scope1.1 This test method
3、covers the determination of tensilestrength of cured chemical-resistant materials in the form ofmolded briquets.These materials include mortars,brick andtile grouts,machinery grouts,and monolithic surfacings.Thesematerials shall be based on resin,silicate,silica,or sulfurbinders.1.2 The values state
4、d in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard.The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It
5、is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2C904 Terminology Relating to Chemical-Resistant Nonme-tallic MaterialsE4 Practices
