Mastic Construction Adhesives in Fire Exposure.

Abstract

The report describes two basic methods for testing the heat resistance of mastic construction adhesives. Thirty diversified adhesives were classified as either heat resistant or nonheat resistant. Heat-resistant adhesives in wood-to-wood joints withstood temperatures exceeding 550F and a load of 2 pounds per square inch. Nonheat-resistant adhesives failed at temperatures generally below 300F.
