14、ted States1 4.Significance and Use4.1 The various methods for measuring and calculatingthermal properties provide data and information for manufac-turers published information,for comparison of relatedproducts,and for designers and users to evaluate insulationproducts for particular applications.For
15、 these purposes it isadvisable to provide basic data and information producedunder standard temperature conditions.4.2 It is possible that thermal properties of a specimen willchange with mean temperature,with temperature differenceacross the specimens,and with high temperature exposure.Data and inf
16、ormation at standard temperatures are necessaryfor valid comparison of thermal properties.4.3 The mean test temperatures to measure thermal proper-ties shall be selected from those listed in Table 1.It isrecommended that thermal properties of insulation materials beevaluated over a mean temperature range that represents theintended end use.For this situation,the lowest and greatestmean temperatures need to be within 10C of the maximumand minimum mean temperature of interest.The temperaturediffer
