The invention discloses a performance test method for a penetration protection material. The performance test method comprises the specific steps: (1) storage stability test; (2) penetration depth and brushing performance test; (3) heat resistance test, wherein the test result shows that no pulverization or crack is generated on the surface within 72 hours at a temperature of 80 DEG C; (4) performance test after protection; (5) alkali resistance test: three test pieces subjected to protection treatment form a group, and are treated for 168 hours in a saturated Ca(OH)2 solution and flushed with clear water. According to the performance test method, through carrying out comprehensive performance test on three stages, namely before-use, after-use and in-use of the penetration protection material, comprehensive performance parameters of the penetration protection material are fully understood and mastered, so that a powerful accurate technical parameter support is provided for large-scale popularization and application of the material.
