Requirements for special applications, e.g. where the product is subjected to extreme conditions of heat or moisture, are not part of this part of ISO 13894 , although Part 1 of this International Standard describes test methods for additional properties which may be applicable to such applications (see ISO 13894‑1:2000, Subclause 3.1, Note 3).

Test methods and performance levels for special applications shall be agreed between customer and supplier. Information concerning test methods for special applications is given in Annex A.
