Plastics - Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVAC) moulding and extrusion materials - Part 1: Designation system and basis for specifications (ISO 21301-1:2019)

1.1 This document establishes a system of designation for ethylene-vinyl acetate thermoplastic
material, which can be used as the basis for specifications.
1.2 The types of ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVAC) plastic are differentiated from each other by a
classification system based on appropriate levels of the following designatory properties:
a) vinyl acetate content;
b) melt mass-flow rate;
and on information about the intended application and/or method of processing, important properties,
additives, colorants, fillers and reinforcing materials.
1.3 This document is applicable to all ethylene vinyl acetate copolymers containing from a mass
fraction from 3 % to 50 % (approximately 25 % molar) of vinyl acetate.
It applies to materials ready for normal use in the form of powder, granules or pellets and to materials
unmodified or modified by colorants, additives, fillers, etc.
1.4 It is not intended to imply that materials having the same designation give necessarily the same
performance. This document does not provide engineering data, performance data or data on processing
conditions which can be required to specify a material for a particular application and/or method of
processing.
If such additional properties are required, they are determined in accordance with the test methods
specified in ISO 21301-2, if suitable.
1.5 In order to specify a thermoplastic material for a particular application or to ensure reproducible
processing, additional requirements can be given in data block 5 (see 4.1).

Plastiques - Matériaux à base de copolymères éthylène/acétate de vinyle (EVAC) pour moulage et extrusion - Partie 1: Système de désignation et base de spécification (ISO 21301-1:2019)

1.1    Le présent document établit un système de désignation des matériaux thermoplastiques à base de copolymère éthylène/acétate de vinyle qui peut être utilisé comme base pour les spécifications.
1.2    Les types de plastiques à base de copolymère éthylène/acétate de vinyle (EVAC) sont différenciés les uns des autres par un système de classification fondé sur des niveaux appropriés des propriétés de désignation suivantes:
a)    teneur en acétate de vinyle;
b)    indice de fluidité à chaud en masse;
et des informations sur l'application prévue et/ou la méthode de mise en œuvre, les propriétés importantes, les additifs, les colorants, les charges et les matériaux de renfort.
1.3    Le présent document est applicable à tous les copolymères éthylène/acétate de vinyle contenant une fraction massique de 3 % à 50 % (approximativement 25 % molaire) d'acétate de vinyle.
Il s'applique aux matériaux prêts à l'emploi dans le cadre d'une utilisation normale sous la forme de poudre, granulés ou grains et aux matériaux non modifiés ou modifiés par des colorants, additifs, charges, etc.
1.4    Le fait que des matériaux aient la même désignation n'implique pas qu'ils présentent nécessairement les mêmes performances. Le présent document ne comporte pas de données sur la conception, la performance ou les conditions de mise en œuvre qui peuvent être exigées pour spécifier un matériau pour une application et/ou une méthode de mise en œuvre particulière.
Si de telles caractéristiques supplémentaires sont nécessaires, elles sont déterminées conformément aux méthodes d'essai spécifiées dans l'ISO 21301‑2, s'il y a lieu.
1.5    Afin de spécifier un matériau thermoplastique pour une application particulière ou d'assurer une méthode de mise en œuvre reproductible, des exigences supplémentaires peuvent être codées dans le bloc de données 5 (voir 4.1).

Polimerni materiali - Materiali na osnovi kopolimerov etilen/vinilacetata (EVAC) za oblikovanje in ekstrudiranje - 1. del: Sistem označevanja in podlage za specifikacije (ISO 21301-1:2019)

1.1 Ta dokument določa sistem označevanja plastomernega materiala na osnovi kopolimerov etilen/vinilacetata, ki ga je mogoče uporabiti kot podlago za specifikacije.
1.2 Vrste kopolimerov etilen/vinilacetata (EVAC) se ločujejo glede na sistem razvrščanja, ki temelji na ustreznih ravneh označevalnih lastnosti:
a) vsebnost etilen/vinilacetata;
b) masni pretok taline;
ter informacijah o predvideni uporabi in/ali metodi obdelave, pomembnih lastnostih, aditivih, barvilih, polnilih in materialih za ojačanje.
1.3 Ta dokument se uporablja za vse kopolimere etilen/vinilacetata, katerih masni delež vinilacetata je 3–50 % (približno 25 % molarnega).
Uporablja se za materiale v obliki praška, granul ali peletov, pripravljene za običajno uporabo, in materiale, nespremenjene ali spremenjene z barvili, aditivi, polnili itd.
1.4 Materiali z enako oznako nimajo nujno tudi enakih
lastnosti. Ta dokument ne podaja tehničnih podatkov, podatkov o delovanju ali podatkov o pogojih obdelave, ki so morda potrebni za določitev materiala za določeno uporabo in/ali metodo obdelave.
Če so take dodatne lastnosti zahtevane, jih je treba določiti v skladu s preskusnimi metodami
iz standarda ISO 21301-2, če je to primerno.
1.5 Zahteve za določanje plastomernega materiala za določeno uporabo ali zagotavljanje ponovljive
obdelave so podane v podatkovnem bloku 5 (glej točko 4.1).

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).
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 61 Plastics, Subcommittee SC 9,
Thermoplastic materials.
Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A
complete listing of these bodies can be found at www .iso .org/members .html.
This first edition of ISO 21301-1 cancels and replaces the second edition of ISO 4613-1:1993, which has
been technically revised. The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
— a new designation system has been introduced;
— the range of MFR has been added.
The revised designation system is published under a new ISO number, as many existing documents
refer to ISO 4613-1.
