Plastics - Determination of apparent density of moulding material that cannot be poured from a specified funnel (ISO 61:1976)
A portion of 60 g of loose moulding material is dropped little by little into a measuring cylinder as evenly distributed as possible. A plunger with specified mass fitting to the measuring cylinder is slowly lowered until it is entirely supported by the material. After 1 min the volume of the material with the plunger resting upon it, shall be determined and the apparent density shall be calculated.
Kunststoffe - Bestimmung der scheinbaren Dichte von Formmassen, die nicht durch einen gegebenen Trichter abfließen können (Stopfdichte) (ISO 61:1976)
Diese Internationale Norm legt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Stopfdichte, d.h. der Masse je Volumeneinheit nicht gestampfter Formmassen, die nicht durch einen genormten Trichter abfließen können, fest. Anmerkung: Zum Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Stopfdichte von losen Formmassen, die durch einen genormten Trichter abfließen können, siehe ISO 60. Die Kenntnis der Stopfdichte kann nur dann zur Abschätzung des Volumenbedarfs der Formmasse dienen, wenn sie im geformten Zustand ungefähr die gleiche Dichte aufweist.
Matières plastiques - Détermination de la masse volumique apparente des matières à mouler non susceptibles de s'écouler à travers un entonnoir donné (ISO 61:1976)
La présente Norme Internationale spécifie une méthode de détermination de la masse volumique apparente, c'est-à-dire la masse par unité de volume, des matières à mouler non tassées, qui ne sont pas susceptibles de s'écouler à travers un entonnoir d'un modèle déterminé.
NOTE - Pour une méthode de détermination de la masse volumique apparente des matières à mouler susceptibles de s'écouler à travers un entonnoir donné, voir ISO 60. La connaissance de la masse volumique apparente ne peut servir à comparer l'expansion ou le foisonnement de matières à mouler que si leur densité à l'état moulé est approximativement la même.

Frequently Asked Questions
EN ISO 61:1999 is a standard published by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). Its full title is "Plastics - Determination of apparent density of moulding material that cannot be poured from a specified funnel (ISO 61:1976)". This standard covers: A portion of 60 g of loose moulding material is dropped little by little into a measuring cylinder as evenly distributed as possible. A plunger with specified mass fitting to the measuring cylinder is slowly lowered until it is entirely supported by the material. After 1 min the volume of the material with the plunger resting upon it, shall be determined and the apparent density shall be calculated.

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation
of national Standards institutes (ISO Member Bodies). The work of developing
International Standards is carried out through ISO Technical Committees. Every
Member Body interested in a subject for which a Technical Committee has been set
up 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.
Draft International Standards adopted by the Technical Committees are circulated
to the Member Bodies for approval before their acceptance as International
Standards by the ISO Council.
International Standard ISO 61 was drawn up by Technical Committee ISO/TC 61,
Plastics. lt was submitted directly to the ISO Council, in accordance with clause
6.12.1 of the Directives for the technical work of ISO.
This International Standard cancels and replaces ISO Recommendation
R 61-1958, which had been approved by the Member Bodies of the following
countries :
Australia India Portugal
Austria

Bulgaria Israel Spain
