Martens degree of deformation |
|
 |
|
UNE 53026 Standard: Method for measuring, under specified conditions, the temperature at which a test specimen under a determined flexion force is displaced a pre-established distance. |
|
 |
|
Water absorption |
|
 |
|
ISO 62 Standard: Method for determining the water absorbed when a moulded test sample of a moulding compound is submerged in water at room temperature and at 100°C. |

|
Granulometric analysis of powdered additives and loads |
|
 |
|
Method for determining the percentage of material retained in a sieve. The test material is placed on a sieve and subjected to a vacuum of 2.5 kPa.

|
Softening point of resins |
|
 |
|
ASTM D 3461 Standard: Method for determining the softening point of resins at a range of 50 to 180 °C. The resin is placed in a cylindrical cone with a 7.77 mm diameter hole in the bottom. A measurement is taken of the temperature at which the resin flows a distance of 19 mm and breaks a light beam. The resin is heated at a constant gradient of 2°C / min. |

|
Percentage water content using Karl-Fisher methods |
|
 |
|
ISO 760 Standard: The method is based on the reaction of the water present in moulding compounds placed in a methanol solution of iodine and sulphur dioxide. |

|
 |
|
Post-moulding shrinkage of a moulding compound |
|
 |
|
ISO 2577 Standard: Method for determining the shrinkage of a standard test specimen after moulding under controlled pressure and temperature conditions. The determination is made using a micrometre after allowing the moulded test sample to stand for 16 hours at 23 ± 2°C and 45-55% relative humidity. |
