Organization: ISO
Publication Date: 15 July 2004
Status: inactive
Page Count: 16
ICS Code (Thermoplastic materials): 83.080.20
scope:

This International Standard specifies four methods for the determination of the Vicat softening temperature (VST) of thermoplastic materials:

- Method A50 using a force of 10 N and a heating rate of 50 º C/h

- Method B50 using a force of 50 N and a heating rate of 50 º C/h

- Method A120 using a force of 10 N and a heating rate of 120 º C/h

- Method B120 using a force of 50 N and a heating rate of 120 º C/h.

The methods specified are applicable only to thermoplastics, for which they give a measure of the temperature at which the thermoplastics start to soften rapidly.
