Hygrothermal performance of building materials and products - Determination of hygroscopic sorption properties (ISO 12571:2013)
ISO 12571:2013 specifies two alternative methods for determining hygroscopic sorption properties of porous building materials and products:a) using desiccators and weighing cups (desiccator method) b) using a climatic chamber (climatic chamber method).The desiccator method is the reference method.ISO 12571:2013 does not specify the method for sampling.The methods specified in ISO 12571:2013 can be used to determine the moisture content of a sample in equilibrium with air at a specific temperature and humidity.
