General information

Current stage: 40.60 Effective date: Jun 2, 2026

Originator: ISO

Owner: ISO/TC 61/SC 13

Type: International Standard

Scope

ISO 1268-8:2004 specifies the general principles and procedures for the compression moulding of test plates from two types of fibre-reinforced thermosetting moulding compound: sheet moulding compound (SMC) and bulk moulding compound (BMC).
