FOREWORD
1)
The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization
comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to
promote international cooperation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and
electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards.
Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in
the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and
non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC
collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with
conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters, prepared by technical committees on
which all the National Committees having a special interest therein are represented, express, as nearly as
possible, an international consensus of opinion on the subjects dealt with.
3)
They have the form of recommendations for international use published in the form of standards, technical
reports or guides and they are accepted by the National Committees in that sense.
4)
In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.
This International Standard has been prepared by Sub-Committee 15C: Specifications, of
IEC Technical Committee No. 15: Insulating materials.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:

INTRODUCTION
This International Standard is one of a series which deals with plastic films for electrical
purposes. The series consists of three parts:
Part 1: Definitions and general requirements (IEC 674-1).
Part 2: Methods of test (IEC 674-2).
Part 3: Specifications for individual materials (IEC 674-3).
This standard contains three of the sheets comprising part 3 as follows:
Sheet 4: Requirements for polyimide films based on poly(N,N'-p,p'-oxydiphenylene
pyromellitimide) used for electrical insulation.
Sheet 5: Requirements for polyimide films based on poly(N,N'-p-phenylene biphenyl-
tetracarboxylimide) used for electrical insulation.
Sheet 6: Requirements for polyimide films based on poly(N,N'-p,p'-oxydiphenylene
biphenyl-tetracarboxylimide) used for electrical insulation.

1.2 Normative references
The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this
text, constitute provisions of this International Standard. At the time of publication, the
editions indicated were valid. All normative documents are subject to revision, and parties
to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to investigate the
possibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative documents indicated
below. Members of IEC and ISO maintain registers of currently valid International
Standards.
IEC 674-1: 1980, Specification for plastic films for electrical purposes - Pa rt 1: Definitions
and general requirements.
IEC 674-2: 1988, Specification for plastic films for electrical purposes - Part 2: Methods
of test.

1.3 Classification
The polyimide film shall be of the following types:
Type 1: General purpose
Type 2A: One side coated*
Type 2B: Two sides coated*
Type 2 is surface coated to render the surface(s) heat sealable.

674-3-4 to 6 © IEC:1993 - 11 -
Type 3: Dimensionally stabilized (only generally available in sheets 4 and 5 types)
Type 4: Heat shrinkable (only generally available in sheet 4 types)
Designation
The film shall be identified by the designation which follows:
Designation of the film - IEC 674-3-4 (or 5, or 6) - PI - type - thickness in micrometres -
width in millimetres - length in metres - colour.
Example:
Polyimide film IEC 674-3-4 - PI - type 1 - 100 - 20 - 200 - nc - f
(f = flame retardant; r = regular; nc = natural colour; other colours according to IEC 757).
3 General requirements
Type 1 material shall be a flexible, self-supporting film made from polyimide polymer.
Type 2 shall have a heat sealable coating of fluoroethylene-propylene (FEP) resin on one
or both sides of type 1 material.
Type 3 shall be identical to type 1 except for improved dimensional stability.
Type 4 shall be identical to type 1 except for the heat shrinkability requirement.
All types shall conform to the general requirements laid down in IEC 674-1.
4 Dimensions
4.1 Thickness
The film thickness of types 1, 3 and 4 shall be measured by a gravimetric method in
accordance with 3.3 of IEC 674-2. The thickness of type 2 shall be measured using a
micrometer in accordance with 3.1 of IEC 674-2.
The overall thickness shall be in accordance with the nominal thickness and permitted
range of thickness given in table 1 and 2.
