EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ASTM C531 testing. This test method covers the measurement of linear shrinkage during curing and curing and the coefficient of thermal expansion of chemical resistant mortars, grouts, solid surface coatings and polymer concretes.
A square section bar is cast to a predetermined length into a mold that holds the measuring studs held at the ends of the finished casting.
The change in length after curing is measured and used to calculate shrinkage. The change in length at a given elevated temperature is measured and used to calculate the coefficient of thermal expansion. This test method is limited to materials with an overall size of 0,25 inches (6 mm) or less.
Values stated in inches-pounds will be considered standard. Values in parentheses are mathematical conversions of non-standard SI units, provided for informational purposes only.
This standard does not purport to address all, if any, safety concerns associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health and environmental practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory restrictions prior to use.
