IEC 60893-3-1 Ed. 2.0 b:2003

Intended as a guide giving the requirements for various materials. Their properties are given in subsequent Part 3 specification sheets. Materials which conform to this specification meet established levels of performance. However, the selection of a material by a user for a specific application should be based on the actual requirements necessary for adequate performance in that application and not based on this specification alone. In this revision of the IEC 60893 series of specifications, new material types have been included, changes have been made to the property requirements of some existing types, a new method for testing permittivity and dissipation factor has been added, and all non-specification data for each type has been moved to a new Part 4 document - IEC 60893-4: Typical values.
