Overview

EN ISO 14530-3:1999 is an international standard developed by CEN that specifies the requirements for selected unsaturated-polyester powder moulding compounds (UP-PMCs). This part of the ISO 14530 series focuses on the physical and chemical properties of UP-PMCs and their corresponding compression- or injection-moulded test specimens. The standard targets those powder moulding compounds with significantly different compositions and properties, particularly those of general technical and economic importance.

Key aspects include defining property requirements, selecting appropriate test methods, and classifying moulding compounds according to their composition and characteristics. This classification is in line with the designation system outlined in ISO 14530-1.

Key Topics

  • Scope and Application
    The standard covers UP-PMCs whose compositions vary notably and are used in general technical or economic contexts. It excludes rheological and processing properties limits but emphasizes their importance for practical use.

  • Property Requirements
    EN ISO 14530-3 defines stringent criteria for:

    • Mechanical properties such as stress at break, flexural strength, and Charpy impact strength.
    • Thermal properties including temperature of deflection under load and flammability.
    • Electrical properties such as dissipation factor, volume and surface resistivity, and proof tracking index.
    • Other important factors like water absorption.
  • Types and Designation
    Compounds are divided into types based on filler content and composition, using designation codes consistent with ISO 14530-1. For example, fillers such as glass fibers (GF) and milled fibers (MD), or limestone (LD) are specified by mass content percentages.

  • Test Methods
    The test methods and conditions for assessing material properties are selected from ISO 14530-2, ensuring standardized specimen preparation and property determination.

Applications

  • Industrial Manufacturing
    UP-PMCs compliant with EN ISO 14530-3 are widely used in the production of thermosetting plastic components through compression or injection moulding. They are pivotal in sectors requiring durable, thermally stable, and electrically insulating molding materials.

  • Automotive and Electrical Components
    Due to their mechanical robustness and thermal resistance, these compounds are ideal for manufacturing parts such as housings, connectors, and insulating components in automotive and electrical industries.

  • Quality Control and Material Selection
    The standard assists manufacturers and designers in selecting appropriate UP-PMCs based on quantified mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties to ensure product reliability and performance consistency.

  • Research and Development
    It provides robust guidelines for developing new UP-PMC formulations tailored to specific industrial needs, including optimizing filler types and contents for enhanced properties.

Related Standards

  • ISO 14530-1:1999 – Designation system and basis for specifications of UP-PMCs
  • ISO 14530-2:1999 – Preparation of test specimens and determination of properties for UP-PMCs
  • ISO 472:1999 – Plastics vocabulary, providing essential terminology used in plastics standards
  • Other regional and international standards may reference or complement EN ISO 14530-3 for powder molding compounds, including ASTM, BS, DIN, and JIS norms related to thermosetting materials.

By adhering to EN ISO 14530-3:1999, manufacturers and users of unsaturated-polyester powder moulding compounds ensure that products meet internationally recognized quality and performance benchmarks, facilitating global trade and consistent product excellence.

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.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this part of ISO 14530 may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO 14530-3 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 61, Plastics, Subcommittee
SC 12, Thermosetting materials.
ISO 14530 consists of the following parts, under the general title Plastics — Unsaturated-polyester powder
moulding compounds (UP-PMCs):
