Dear all!
we want to use a vapor barrier mastic for cold insulation in refiner industry. my contractor supply a more ton of material and expire date of these finished.we opened a can and see that material was a good condition and apply in the site an also was a good . so can we use it if we send its samples to laboratory and test the mastic for cold Resistance, water vapor transition(as ASTM E96) and other tests?
 
If it is out of date, it should not be used. The manufacturer puts a use by date on its products for good reasons.
 
Dear!
For industery and refinery causes what is a suitable vapour barrier for cold insulation? Warer or solvent base?
