Metall- und Oxidschichten - Schichtdickenmessung - Mikroskopische Methode (ISO 1463:1982)
Diese Europäische Norm legt ein Verfahren zur Messung der Örtlichen Dicke von Metall-, Oxid- und Emailschichten durch mikroskopische Untersuchung von Querschliffen mit einem Lichtmikroskop fest. Das Verfahren ergibt bei Verwendung eines Lichtmikroskops eine absolute Messgenauigkeit von 0,8 microm. Es ist damit für die Messung dünner Schichten geeignet.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of
national Standards institutes (ISO member bodies). The work of developing Inter-
national Standards is carried out through ISO technical committees. Every member
body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been set up 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.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to
the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as International Standards by
the ISO Council.
International Standard ISO 1463 was developed by Technical Committee ISO/TC 107,
Meta//ic and other non-organic coatings, and was circulated to the member bodies in
November 1980.
lt has been approved by the member bodies of the following countries :
Spain
Australia Italy
Bulgaria Japan Sweden
Czechoslovakia Netherlands Switzerland
United Kingdom
Egypt, Arab Rep. of New Zealand
France Poland USA
Germany, F. R. Portugal USSR
Venezuela
Hungary Romania
India South Africa, Rep. of
No member body expressed disapproval of the document.
