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 document 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).
ISO draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use
of (a) patent(s). ISO takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed
patent rights in respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, ISO had not received
notice of (a) patent(s) which may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are
cautioned that this may not represent the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent
database available at www.iso.org/patents. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all
such patent rights.
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation of the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and
expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to
the World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see
www.iso.org/iso/foreword.html.
This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 119, Powder metallurgy, Subcommittee
SC 2, Sampling and testing methods for powders (including powders for hardmetals), in collaboration
with the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee CEN/SS M11, Powder
metallurgy, in accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna
Agreement).
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 3995:1985), which has been technically
revised.
The main changes are as follows:
— allowing automated compacting sequence in 7.4;
— adding second compacting pressure option and tighter tolerance in 7.5;
— mandatory reporting of lubrication technique and lubrication details in Clause 9;
— replacing stearic acid by synthetic wax;
— removing the use of solvent.

Avant-propos
L'ISO (Organisation internationale de normalisation) est une fédération mondiale d'organismes
nationaux de normalisation (comités membres de l'ISO). L'élaboration des Normes internationales est
en général confiée aux comités techniques de l'ISO. Chaque comité membre intéressé par une étude
a le droit de faire partie du comité technique créé à cet effet. Les organisations internationales,
gouvernementales et non gouvernementales, en liaison avec l'ISO participent également aux travaux.
L'ISO collabore étroitement avec la Commission électrotechnique internationale (IEC) en ce qui
concerne la normalisation électrotechnique.
Les procédures utilisées pour élaborer le présent document et celles destinées à sa mise à jour sont
décrites dans les Directives ISO/IEC, Partie 1. Il convient, en particulier, de prendre note des différents
critères d'approbation requis pour les différents types de documents ISO. Le présent document a
été rédigé conformément aux règles de rédaction données dans les Directives ISO/IEC, Partie 2 (voir
www.iso.org/directives).
L’ISO attire l’attention sur le fait que la mise en application du présent document peut entraîner
l’utilisation d’un ou de plusieurs brevets. L’ISO ne prend pas position quant à la preuve, à la validité
et à l’applicabilité de tout droit de brevet revendiqué à cet égard. À la date de publication du présent
document, l’ISO n'avait pas reçu notification qu’un ou plusieurs brevets pouvaient être nécessaires à sa
mise en application. Toutefois, il y a lieu d’avertir les responsables de la mise en application du présent
document que des informations plus récentes sont susceptibles de figurer dans la base de données de
brevets, disponible à l'adresse www.iso.org/brevets. L’ISO ne saurait être tenue pour responsable de ne
pas avoir identifié tout ou partie de tels droits de propriété.
Les appellations commerciales éventuellement mentionnées dans le présent document sont données
pour information, par souci de commodité, à l’intention des utilisateurs et ne sauraient constituer un
engagement.
Pour une explication de la nature volontaire des normes, la signification des termes et expressions
spécifiques de l'ISO liés à l'évaluation de la conformité, ou pour toute information au sujet de l'adhésion
de l'ISO aux principes de l’Organisation mondiale du commerce (OMC) concernant les obstacles
techniques au commerce (OTC), voir www.iso.org/avant-propos.
Le présent document a été élaboré par le comité technique ISO/TC 119, Métallurgie des poudres, sous-
comité SC 2, Échantillonnage et méthodes d'essais des poudres (y compris les poudres pour métaux-durs),
en collaboration avec le comité technique CEN/SS M11, Métallurgie des poudres, du Comité européen de
normalisation (CEN) conformément à l’Accord de coopération technique entre l’ISO et le CEN (Accord de
Vienne).
Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition (ISO 3995:1985), qui a fait l'objet d'une
révision technique.
Les principales modifications sont les suivantes:
— autorisation d’une séquence de compression automatisée en 7.4;
— ajout d’une seconde pression de compression possible ainsi que d’une tolérance plus stricte en 7.5;
— obligation d’indiquer la technique de lubrification et les données détaillées relatives à celle-ci
à l’Article 9;
— remplacement de l’acide stéarique par de la cire synthétique;
— suppression de l’utilisation de solvant.
Il convient que l’utilisateur adresse tout retour d’information ou toute question concernant le présent
document à l’organisme national de normalisation de son pays. Une liste exhaustive desdits organismes
se trouve à l’adresse www.iso.org/fr/members.html.

Poudres métalliques — Détermination de la résistance à la
rupture transversale de comprimés rectangulaires à cru
1 Domaine d’application
Le présent document spécifie une méthode de détermination de la résistance à la rupture transversale
par mesure de la résistance à la flexion de comprimés de section rectangulaire à cru.
2 Références normatives
Le présent document ne contient aucune référence normative.
3 Termes et définitions
Le présent document ne contient pas de liste de termes et définitions.
L'ISO et l'IEC tiennent à jour des bases de données terminologiques destinées à être utilisées en
normalisation, consultables aux adresses suivantes:
— ISO Online browsing platform: disponible à l'adresse https:// www .iso .org/ obp
— IEC Electropedia: disponible à l'adresse https:// www .electropedia .org/
4 Principe
Le principe consiste à soumettre un comprimé obtenu par compression d’une poudre métallique à une
charge transversale croissant de manière uniforme, dans des conditions contrôlées, jusqu'à la rupture.
La résistance à la rupture transversale ou, comme dénommée ici, la résistance à cru, est déterminée
comme étant la contrainte, calculée à partir de la formule conventionnelle de la flexion, nécessaire pour
rompre le comprimé assimilé à un simple barreau reposant sur deux appuis à ses extrémités et soumis
à une force appliquée en son milieu.
La résistance à cru est déterminée
