Plastics - Unsaturated-polyester powder moulding compounds (UP-PMCs) - Part 1: Designation system and basis for specifications (ISO 14530-1:1999)
1.1 This part of ISO 14530 establishes a data block system for the designation of unsaturated-polyester powder
moulding compounds (UP-PMCs).
1.2 The various types of UP-PMC are differentiated from each other by a classification system based on
information about the filler/reinforcement type and content, the intended method of processing, any special
properties and those of the special properties used specifically for designation purposes (designatory properties).
1.3 This part of ISO 14530 is applicable to all UP-PMCs ready for normal use in the form of powder, granules or
ground material.
1.4 It is not intended to imply that materials having the same designation necessarily give the same
performance. This part of ISO 14530 does not provide engineering data, performance data or data on processing
conditions which may be required to specify a material for a particular application and/or method of processing. If
such additional properties are required, they shall be determined in accordance with the test methods specified in
ISO 14530-2, if suitable.
1.5 Whenever general requirement data, as covered by ISO 14530-3, need to be indicated, this is also done
using this data block system.
1.6 To ensure that code-letters and code-numbers remain unambiguous, and to avoid conflicts within the
system, any new code-letters or code-numbers for use in data block 1, 2 or 3 shall be approved before use by the
secretariats of ISO/TC 61/SC 1, SC 12 and SC 13.

1.1 In diesem Teil von ISO 14530 wird ein Daten-Blocksystem zur Bezeichnung von Rieselfähigen ungesättigten Polyester-Formmassen (UP-PMC) festgelegt. 1.2 Die verschiedenen Typen von UP-PMC werden mit einem Einteilungssystem voneinander unterschieden, das auf Angaben über Füll-/Verstärkungsstoffanteil und Art, vorgesehene Verarbeitungs- und/oder Herstellungsverfahren, Angaben zu besonderen Eigenschaften und jenen besonderen Eigenschaften beruht, die spezifisch zur Bezeichnung verwendet werden (kennzeichnende Eigenschaften).
Plastiques - Poudres à mouler à base de polyester non saturé (UP-PMC) - Partie 1: Système de désignation et base de spécification (ISO 14530-1:1999)
1.1 La présente partie de l'ISO 14530 établit un système de blocs de données pour la désignation des poudres à
mouler à base de polyester non saturé (UP-PMC).
1.2 Les types d'UP-PMC sont différenciés les uns des autres par un système de classification basé sur des
informations relatives à la nature et à la teneur en charges/matériaux de renforcement, à la méthode de mise en
oeuvre prévue, aux propriétés particulières en général et à celles utilisées spécifiquement pour les besoins de la
désignation (propriétés de désignation).
1.3 La présente partie de l'ISO 14530 est applicable à tous les UP-PMC prêts à l'emploi pour un usage courant
sous forme de poudres, grains ou matériaux broyés.
1.4 Le fait que des matériaux aient la même désignation n'implique pas qu'ils présentent nécessairement les
mêmes performances. La présente partie de l'ISO 14530 ne comporte pas de données sur la conception, les
performances ou les conditions de mise en oeuvre qui peuvent être exigées pour spécifier un matériau pour une
application et/ou une méthode de mise en oeuvre particulière. Si de telles caractéristiques supplémentaires sont
nécessaires, elles doivent être déterminées conformément aux méthodes d'essai spécifiées dans l'ISO 14530-2, le
cas échéant.
1.5 Chaque fois qu'il est nécessaire d'indiquer certaines exigences générales telles que traitées dans
l'ISO 14530-3, on utilise pour ce faire le présent système de blocs de données.
1.6 Pour garantir que la signification des lettres-codes et des nombres-codes demeure non ambiguë et pour
éviter toute contradiction au sein du système, les nouveaux lettres-codes et nombres-codes à utiliser dans les
blocs de données 1, 2 et 3 doivent être approuvés par les secrétariats de l'ISO/TC 61/SC 1, SC 12 et SC 13 avant
utilisation.

Overview
EN ISO 14530-1:1999, published by CEN, specifies the designation system and basis for specifications for unsaturated-polyester powder moulding compounds (UP-PMCs). This international standard establishes a structured data block format designed to clearly identify UP-PMC materials based on their filler or reinforcement type, content, processing method, special properties, and other key classification parameters. Applicable to UP-PMCs in powder, granule, or ground form, this standard facilitates unambiguous communication and consistent documentation essential for manufacturers, suppliers, and users in the plastics industry.
It is important to note that while EN ISO 14530-1:1999 defines material designation, it does not provide performance data or processing parameters. Such information is available in related parts of ISO 14530, ensuring a comprehensive standard series covering both identification and testing.
Key Topics
Data Block Designation System
The system divides the material identity into distinct datablocks, each representing critical classification data:- Datablock 1: Basic polymer identification, filler/reinforcement nature, form, and nominal content
- Datablock 2: Intended method of processing, such as injection, compression, or transfer moulding
- Datablock 3: Special and designatory properties, which include impact strength and temperature resistance
- Datablock 4: References to related international, national, or company standards
- Datablock 5 (Optional): Additional requirements for specific supplier-purchaser agreements
Classification of Fillers and Reinforcements
The standard applies specific code letters and numbers to define filler types-examples include glass fiber, mineral dust, talc, cellulose-and their forms like beads, powder, or fibres. The precise content percentage by mass is also codified to standardize material descriptions.Processing Methods
Intended processing methods are encoded to avoid ambiguity in material application. Options include general purpose, injection moulding, compression moulding, transfer moulding, and others.Special Properties Encoding
Special material attributes such as electrical properties, flameresistance, mechanical properties, and use of recycled materials are designated by specific code letters, enabling quick identification of functional characteristics relevant to end-use.
Applications
EN ISO 14530-1's designation system is critical for:
Material Specification and Procurement
Enables procurement specialists and product developers to accurately specify and order UP-PMC materials by well-defined identifiers, reducing misunderstandings and ensuring consistency.Quality Assurance and Traceability
Provides a standardized method to label materials for production and supply chains, improving traceability and quality control in manufacturing processes involving unsaturated-polyester powder moulding compounds.Research and Development
Assists R&D teams in selecting precise material compositions and processing methods for new product development, supported by a clear system to compare material attributes.Regulatory and Compliance Documentation
Facilitates regulatory reporting and compliance documentation by providing consistent descriptors for UP-PMCs in technical data sheets and certification requests.
Related Standards
