Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any
patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on
the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation on the meaning of ISO specific terms and expressions related to conformity
assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to the WTO principles in the Technical Barriers
to Trade (TBT) see the following URL: Foreword - Supplementary information.
The committee responsible for this document is ISO/TC 106, Dentistry, Subcommittee SC 1, Filling and
restorative materials.
This second edition of ISO 15841 cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 15841:2006), which has
been revised to include a reference to ASTM F2082.

Introduction
As with the first edition, the second edition of this International Standard has been developed to help
clinicians compare the wires from different manufacturers and suppliers. In particular, it has been
written as a result of the development of new test methods.
Specific qualitative and quantitative test methods for demonstrating freedom from unacceptable
biological hazards are not included in this International Standard. For the assessment of possible
biological hazards, reference can be made to ISO 10993 and ISO 7405.
