BS EN 6041:2018

This standard BS EN 6041:2018 Aerospace series. Non-metallic materials. Test method. Analysis of non-metallic materials (uncured) by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) is classified in these ICS categories:

• 49.025.01 Materials for aerospace construction in general

This test method defines the procedure for the determination of the curing-characteristic and glass transition temperature of non-metallic materials (e.g. preimpregnated and neat resin systems, adhesives) for aerospace use by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). The results obtained by this method may be useful for: - derivation of the optimum cure cycle (only together with other test methods e.g. Tg determination) - assessment of the condition of the resin - assessment of the ageing behavior of the resin This European Standard does not give any directions necessary to meet the health and safety requirements. It is the responsibility of the user of this European Standard to adopt appropriate health and safety precautions.
