Les caractéristiques suivantes sont prises en considération: - épaisseur, - masse volumique apparente, - résistance à la traction, - compressibilité et récupération, - flexibilité, - résistance à l'eau bouillante, - comportement dans les fluides.
The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.
The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
