This specification establishes minimum performance requirements for determining strength, aging, and working properties of expandable foam adhesives intended for bonding back surfaces of gypsum wallboards of all thicknesses to wood framing. Minimum physical and performance requirements are specified for all measured properties of adhesives and adhesive bonds. Shear strength, tensile strength, adhesive open assembly time determination, substrate wet-out by adhesive, accelerated adhesive aging, freeze-thaw stability, suitability of a laminating adhesive for vinyl-covered wallboard, suitability for stain resistance for vinyl-covered wallboard, and gap filling tests shall be performed to conform to the specified requirements.
