ASTM D7311-07 - 1.11.2007
 
1. Scope

1.1 This specification covers in-situ applied, single-pack, moisture-triggered, aliphatic polyurethanes intended to form an elastomeric single-ply membrane, once cured. The cured membrane may or may not contain a reinforcing material.

1.2 Single-pack, moisture-triggered, aliphatic polyurethanes are characterized by their ability to use moisture to trigger the curing process only.

1.3 The tests and property limits used to characterize the liquid material and cured membrane are values intended to ensure minimum quality. In-place roof system design criteria such as fire resistance, material compatibility, and uplift resistance, among others, are factors that shall be considered but are beyond the scope of this specification.

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

1.5 This 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 and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
