PLASTICS AND EBONITE - DETERMINATION OF INDENTATION HARDNESS BY MEANS OF A DUROMETER (SHORE HARDNESS) (ISO 868:2003, IDT)
This Malaysian Standard specifies a method for the determination of the indentation hardness of plastics and ebonite by means of durometers of two types: type A is used for softer materials and type D for harder materials. The method permits measurement either of the initial indentation or of the indentation after a specified period of time, or both.
