11.1 ObjectThis test method is intended to establish the ability of a fibre optic cable to withstand mechanical twisting. The primary purpose of this procedure is to measure any variation in the optical power transmittance of a fibre when the cable is subjected to torsional forces external to the cable jacket. A secondary purpose is…

Unless otherwise specified, tests shall be carried out at room temperature.4.2 Method A – Measurement of carbon black and/or mineral filler content in polyethylene by direct combustion4.2.1 Sample and test piece preparationA sample of the outer covering or sheath…
4 Classification4.1 This specification recognizes that polyethylene plastics are identified primarily on the basis of two characteristics, namely, density and flow rate (previously identified as melt index). The former is the criterion for assignment as to type, the latter for designation as to category. Other attributes important to the user for certain applications are covered…
