Plastics - Multipurpose test specimens (ISO 3167:2014)

EN ISO 3167 specifies requirements relating to multipurpose test specimens for plastic moulding materials intended for processing by injection or direct compression moulding. Specimens of types A and B are tensile test specimens from which, with simple machining, specimens for a variety of other tests can be taken (see Annex A). Because they have such wide utility, these tensile specimens are referred to in this International Standard as multipurpose test specimens. The principal advantage of a multipurpose test specimen is that it allows all the test methods mentioned in Annex A to be carried out on the basis of comparable mouldings. Consequently, the properties measured are coherent as all are measured with specimens in the same state. In other words, it can be expected that test results for a given set of specimens will not vary appreciably due to unintentionally different moulding conditions. On the other hand, if desired, the influence of moulding conditions and/or different states of the specimens can be assessed without difficulty for all of the properties measured. For quality-control purposes, the multipurpose test specimen can serve as a convenient source of further specimens not readily available. Furthermore, the fact that only one mould is required may be advantageous. The use of multipurpose test specimens is to be agreed upon by the interested parties, because there may be significant differences between properties of the multipurpose test specimens and those specified in the relevant test methods.

Kunststoffe - Vielzweckprobekörper (ISO 3167:2014)

Diese Internationale Norm legt Anforderungen an Vielzweckprobekörper aus Kunststoff-Formmassen für Spritzguss und Formpressen fest.
Die Probekörper der Typen A und B sind Zugprobekörper, denen durch einfache Bearbeitung Probekörper für eine Vielzahl anderer Prüfungen entnommen werden können (siehe Anhang A). Wegen dieser Möglichkeiten werden diese Zugprobekörper in dieser Internationalen Norm als Vielzweckprobekörper bezeichnet.
Der prinzipielle Vorteil eines Vielzweckprobekörpers liegt darin, dass er es ermöglicht, alle im Anhang A genannten Prüfverfahren auf der Basis vergleichbarer Formteile durchzuführen. Folglich stehen alle Eigenschaften in Beziehung zueinander, da sie alle an Probekörpern gemessen werden, die im gleichen Zustand vorliegen. Mit anderen Worten, es ist zu erwarten, dass sich die Prüfergebnisse für einen gegebenen Satz von Probekörpern durch unbeabsichtigte Unterschiede der Formbedingungen nicht signifikant ändern. Andererseits kann, falls gewünscht, der Einfluss der Formgebungsparameter und/oder der unterschiedlichen Zustände der Probekörper ohne Schwierigkeiten für alle gemessenen Eigenschaften festgestellt werden.
Für Qualitätssicherungsbelange darf der Vielzweckprobekörper als geeignete Basis für Probekörper dienen, die nicht unmittelbar verfügbar sind. Weiterhin kann es vorteilhaft sein, dass nur eine Form benötigt wird.
Die Verwendung des Vielzweckprobekörpers muss zwischen den Beteiligten vereinbart werden, da deutlich unterschiedliche Eigenschaften zwischen Teilen aus dem Vielzweckprobekörper und den in den betreffenden Prüfvorschriften beschriebenen Probekörpern auftreten können.
Die Hauptänderung im Vergleich zur vorherigen Ausgabe dieser Internationalen Norm (ISO 3167:1993) besteht in der Einschränkung der Grenzabmaße des Schulterradius der Probekörper vom Typ A und B. Unter Berücksichtigung der Tatsache, dass noch viele der in der vorherigen Ausgabe beschriebenen Gesenkformen verwendet werden, werden die Änderungen zunächst nur empfohlen. Nach der nächsten Überarbeitung sollen diese Änderungen jedoch verbindlich sein. Es ist daher eine Zeitspanne von 10 Jahren vorgesehen, um einen allmählichen Übergang hin zur Verwendung der neuen Gesenkformen zu ermöglichen. Siehe auch Anhang B.

Plastiques - Éprouvettes à usages multiples (ISO 3167:2014)

L'ISO 3167:2014 spécifie les exigences relatives à des éprouvettes à usages multiples pour les matières à mouler destinées au moulage par injection ou par compression directe.

Polimerni materiali - Večnamenski preskušanci (ISO 3167:2014)

Standard EN ISO 3167 določa zahteve glede večnamenskih preskušancev za polimerne materiale za oblikovanje, namenjene obdelavi z brizganjem ali neposrednim tlačnim oblikovanjem. Preskušanci vrst A in B so natezni preskušanci, iz katerih je mogoče s preprosto strojno obdelavo pridobiti preskušance za različne druge preskuse (glejte dodatek A). Ker je njihovo področje uporabe tako široko, so ti natezni preskušanci v tem standardu imenovani večnamenski preskušanci. Glavna prednost večnamenskega preskušanca je, da omogoča izvedbo vseh preskusnih metod, omenjenih v dodatku A, na podlagi primerljivih oblikovancev. Posledično so merjene lastnosti skladne, saj se merijo preskušanci v enakem stanju. Z drugimi besedami, mogoče je pričakovati, da se rezultati preskusa za podan nabor preskušancev ne bodo znatno razlikovali zaradi nenamerno drugačnih pogojev oblikovanja. Po drugi strani pa je mogoče po želji brez težav oceniti vpliv pogojev oblikovanja in/ali različnih stanj preskušancev za vse merjene lastnosti. Za namene preverjanja kakovosti je mogoče večnamenske preskušance uporabiti kot priročen vir nadaljnjih preskušancev, ki še niso na voljo. Pravzaprav lahko prednost predstavlja dejstvo, da je potreben samo en oblikovanec. Zainteresirane strani se morajo dogovoriti glede uporabe večnamenskih preskušancev, saj lahko med lastnostmi večnamenskih preskušancev in preskušanci, navedenimi v ustreznih preskusnih metodah, obstajajo pomembne razlike.

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 61, Plastics, Subcommittee SC 2, mechanical
properties.
This fifth edition results from the reinstatement of the previous edition (ISO 3167:2002) which was
withdrawn in 2013.
ISO 3167 is intended to be gradually replaced by ISO 20753 which specifies the designations and
dimensions of test specimens used for the acquisition of comparable data, and also other frequently
used specimens, in one document for ease of reference.
