EN ISO 3386-1 – Polymeric Materials, Cellular Flexible — Determination of Stress-Strain Characteristics in Compression — Part 1: Low-Density Materials

This ISO standard covers the determination of material with a density up to 250 kg/m3.

It also indicates a method for the calculation of the compression stress value of such materials.

The compression stress/strain characteristic is a measure of the load-bearing properties of the material. Two formulas allow to calculate the results.

*** Before conducting EN ISO 3386-1 , it is important to read the entire specification. Standards can be obtained from appropriate standard authorities.
