Annex
   Absorption of moisture by a test specimen of a
   plastics material in equilibrium with its
   conditioning atmosphere

Gives the exposure conditions of plastics to damp heat, water spray, salt mist, evaluation methods of the change of some significant characteristIcs after given exposure stages. Generally applies to plastics in the form of standard test specimens, and finished articles or parts thereof. Includes absorption of moisture by a test specimen of a plastics material in equilibrium with its conditioning atmosphere.
