1 Scope
This document specifies accelerated moisture absorption properties and supersaturated conditioning by moisture for fibre-reinforced plastics) using sealed pressure vessel at higher temperature than 100 °C with saturated water vapour at used heating temperature. The purpose of this moisture absorbing procedure is to screen test specimens with moisture by mechanical or thermal properties. This document applies to carbon-fibre materials and their products with either thermoset or thermoplastic matrices, with a T g greater than 150 °C. This document can also apply to materials reinforced with other fibres (e.g. glass-fibres) with a T g greater than 150 °C.

3.1 additional moisture content
mass percentage of additionally absorbing moisture in the test material to total mass of the material and moisture already existing in this material
Note 1 to entry: See Formula (1).
3.2 initial moisture content
mass percentage of absorbed moisture in the test material at the initial time
Note 1 to entry: See Formula (3).
3.3 supersaturated conditioning by moisture
moisture absorbing conditions in the test material at room temperature cooled from the saturated moisture absorbing condition at higher temperature and higher humidity, such as saturated water vapour pressure at used higher temperature
4 Principle
To obtain almost similar saturated moisture condition in a test material at room temperature for shorter time, the test material absorbs moisture at higher temperature and higher humidity conditions such as 120 °C and 0,2 MPa of saturated water vapour pressure without air (oxygen) gas. Higher temperature causes higher diffusion rate of water molecules in materials and higher water vapour pressure causes higher frequencies of water molecules uptake at the surface of the material from outside. Therefore, equilibrium and saturated moisture condition to the materials is obtained during shorter time. However, if this material with saturated moisture is cooled to room temperature, this material absorbs supersaturated moisture because of slow diffusion rate inside of water molecules and slow releasing rate of water molecules at the surface.
