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.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting
a vote.
International Standard ISO 7214 was prepared by Technical Committee
ISO/TC 61, Plastics, Subcommittee SC 10, Cellular plastics.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 7214:1985),
which has been technically revised.
Annex A forms an integral part of this International Standard.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD  ISO ISO 7214:1998(E)
Cellular plastics – Polyethylene – Methods of test
1 Scope
1.1 This International Standard specifies methods for testing flexible and semi-rigid
cellular plastics made from polyethylene. Cellular plastics containing copolymers of ethylene
or blends of polymers with polyethylene may also be tested by the procedures of this
International Standard, provided these materials have characteristics similar to polyethylene as
described in ISO 1872-1, or copolymers of ethylene as described in ISO 4613-1.
1.2 Basic tests suitable for characterization of cellular polyethylene, regardless of end use,
are described in clause 7. Clause 8 describes supplementary tests for the determination of
properties that are relevant to certain uses.
1.2.1 Basic tests
Subclause
Apparent density 7.1
Compressive stress-strain 7.2
Compression set 7.3
Tensile strength and elongation 7.4

3 Test specimens
3.1 Cut the specimens so that the edges are clean and the sides are planar and normal to
the surface. Take the specimens from parts of the sample in such a way that for each property
investigated a representative value can be determined. If the sample is believed to be
anisotropic, cut specimens in directions oriented so that the properties pertaining to the
directions most important for practical purposes can be determined.
The numbers, shapes and dimensions of specimens shall comply with the requirements of
clauses 7 and 8. The surfaces of specimens shall be essentially in the same conditions as that
of the surface of the material as it is used in practice, except as required by specific test
procedures.
4 Conditioning
At least 72 h shall elapse between manufacture of the material and the testing of the
specimens. The material shall be stored under normal ambient conditions until the specimens
are prepared. Unless otherwise specified in clauses 7 and 8, condition the specimens
immediately before testing for at least 16 h at a temperature of 23 °C ± 2 °C. The conditioning
2)
period may form part of the 72 h period.
5 Atmosphere during test
Test the specimens at 23 °C ± 2 °C and (50 ± 5) % relative humidity, unless otherwise
specified.
6 Measurement of dimensions
Where possible, use the apparatus described in ISO 1923. However, if the specimens are not
planar over the area of measurement because they are cut from curved articles, measure
dimensions not exceeding 30 mm by means of a hand-held dial gauge with a circular foot of
20 mm diameter. Up to 1 kPa pressure may be applied to the foot, provided that the
deformation of the specimen is less than the required accuracy of measurement.
7 Basic tests
7.1 Apparent density
Perform the test in accordance with ISO 845.
7.2 Compressive stress-strain
Perform the compressive test in accordance with ISO 3386-1. For materials less than 10 mm
thickness, stack to at least
