Full Description

1.1This specification covers minimum material performance requirements and laboratory test procedures for reinforced liquid coating encapsulation products (single- or multiple-coat systems) for leaded paint in buildings. Performance properties addressed in this specification are:

1.1.1Impact Resistance,

1.1.2Adhesion,

1.1.3Dry Abrasion Resistance,

1.1.4Water Vapor Transmission,

1.1.5Water and Chemical Resistance,

1.1.6Surface Burning Characteristics,

1.1.7Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) Content,

1.1.8Weathering,

1.1.9Aging,

1.1.10Scrub Resistance,

1.1.11Mildew Resistance,

1.1.12Paintability/Repairability,

1.2This specification does not address the selection of an encapsulation product for specific use conditions. Specific use conditions may require performance values other than those stated in this specification. See Guide E1796 for guidance.

1.3This specification complements Specification E1795 for non-reinforced liquid coating encapsulation products.

1.4This specification does not cover the use of encapsulation products on industrial steel structures nor residential exterior coated metal surfaces because no corrosion control requirements are included.

1.5This specification applies to any liquid-applied product incorporating reinforcement materials as part of the system. Reinforcement materials are continuous fabric or mesh and are applied in the field. These materials are typically applied between a base and top coat. These products are used to encapsulate a leaded paint surface with the intent of reducing human exposure to lead in paint.

1.6The results of the test methods included in this specification will not necessarily predict field performance.

1.7The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.

1.8This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

1.9This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
