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 documents 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).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).

5 Requirements
5.1 General
Product properties shall be determined in accordance with Clause 6.
The test methods to be used for determination of each property are given in Table 4, which also shows
the required test specimen dimensions and the minimum number of test specimens required to give
one test result.
One test result for a product property is the average of the measured values on the number of test
specimens given in Table 4.
NOTE For FPC, see Annex B.
5.2 Material properties
5.2.1 Thermal resistance and thermal conductivity
For thermal conductivity testing, the specimen shall be conditioned at (23 ± 2) °C and (50 ± 5) %
relative humidity to constant mass.
Thermal resistance and thermal conductivity shall be based upon measurements carried out in
accordance with ISO 8301 or ISO 8302 for thick products.
The thermal resistance and thermal conductivity shall be determined in accordance with the
procedures given in Annex A and declared by the manufacturer according to the following:
— The reference mean temperature shall be either 10 °C or 23 °C, or both.
— The measured values shall be expressed with three significant figures.

limit values representing at least 90 % of the production, determined with a confidence level of
90 %.
