Scope
This International Standard specifies a method of determining the moulding shrinkage and the shrinkage after
heat treatment of moulded test specimens of thermosetting moulding materials.
These characteristics are useful for the production control of thermosetting material and for checking
uniformity of manufacture. Furthermore, knowledge of the initial shrinkage of thermosetting materials is
important for the construction of moulds, and knowledge of post-shrinkage for establishing the suitability of the
moulding material for the manufacture of moulded pieces with accurate dimensions.
