BS ISO 1268-9:2003

This standard BS ISO 1268-9:2003 Fibre-reinforced plastics. Methods of producing test plates is classified in these ICS categories:

• 83.120 Reinforced plastics

This part of ISO 1268 specifies a method for preparing test plates by compression moulding of reinforced thermoplastic sheet (GMT/STC) to be used for the preparation of test specimens to determine the mechanical and physical properties of the laminate. The proposed method is applicable to laminates made from a thermoplastic matrix reinforced with glass, carbon, aramid or other reinforcing fibres, alone or in combination and in any form suitable for compression moulding.

This part of ISO 1268 is intended to be read in conjunction with ISO 1268-1.
