ASTM D1187_D1187M-97R24 - Standard Specification for Asphalt-Base Emulsions for Use as Protective Coatings for Metal

1.1 This specification covers emulsified asphalt suitable for application in a relatively thick film as a protective coating for metal surfaces.

1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the standard.

1.3 This 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.
