EN 13677-1:2003 (E)4IntroductionThis European Standard establishes a data-block system for the designation of glass mat reinforced thermoplasticsheet (GMT) using a format and coding system established by the International Standards Organisation (ISO)which is common to most fibre reinforced thermoset and thermoplastic moulding materials. The system is intendedto be applied only to materials ready for commercial use.The designation system is based on the premise that thermosets and long fibre reinforced thermo-plastics can bedivided into generic families using basic polymers, values of selected designatory properties and additionalqualitative information in order to describe a particular material as precisely as desired.The system is intended for the designation of a single material (or a small group of similar materials) within ageneric family.It is not intended to specify by this system the chemical composition or the volumetric recipe of the compound butto designate the material for identification purposes. It is the responsibility of the producer of the compound materialto provide the appropriate designation.The data-block system is also the basis for specification given in Parts 2 and 3 of this standard.SIST EN 13677-1:2003



EN 13677-1:2003 (E)51 ScopeThis European Standard establishes a data block system for the designation of glass mat reinforced thermoplasticcomposite sheet (GMT).The types of thermoplastic composite sheets are differentiated from each other by a classification system based oninformation about basic polymer parameters, fillers/reinforcement content and type, intended method of processingand/or manufacturing, specific characteristics and designatory properties.This European Standard is applicable to glass fibre mat reinforced polypropylene sheet materials only.It applies to materials ready for commercial use in the form of flat sheet or coil.This European Standard does not apply to:¾ thermoplastic sheet moulding materials where the polymer is other than polypropylene or polypropylene alloyor a blend ;¾ the reinforcement is other than glass fibre.It is not intended to imply that materials having the same designation give necessarily the same performance. ThisEuropean Standard does not provide engineering data, performance data or data on processing conditions whichmay be required to specify a material for a particular application and/or method of processing.If such additional properties are required, when ever possible, they shall be determined in accordance with the testmethods specified in Part 2 of this European Standard.Whenever technical properties required in the Part 3 of this standard need to be indicated, this data block system isalso the basis for it.To ensure that the meanings of codes remain unambiguous and to avoid conflicts within the system, codes andabbreviations have been co-ordinated within the relevant ISO technical sub-committees.2 Normative referencesThis European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. Thesenormative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text, and the publications are listed hereafter. Fordated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this EuropeanStandard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision.

For unambiguous coding, the individual-item block issubdivided into 5 data blocks comprising the following information:¾ the first character of the individual item block shall be a hyphen. The data blocks shall be separated from eachother by commas;¾ if a data block is not used, this shall be indicated by "X" (=no indication) but only if another block follows;¾ for labelling purposes and if no other blocks follo
