Full title and description

STB DIN ISO 15014 E 2015-01 — Plastics — Extruded sheets of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) — Requirements and test methods. This record corresponds to the DIN (German) English-language edition/adoption of ISO 15014 (English text) published in January 2015; the originating International Standard is ISO 15014:2007 which specifies requirements and test methods for solid flat extruded PVDF sheets (thickness range 1 mm to 15 mm).

Abstract

Specifies material definition, required properties and laboratory test methods for solid, flat extruded sheets of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) homopolymers and copolymers (without fillers or reinforcements). Also covers PVDF sheet supplied in rolled form and defines the applicable thickness range, conformity checks and referenced test procedures. The core technical content originates from ISO 15014:2007 and was issued as a DIN English edition in 2015.

Scope

Applies to solid flat extruded sheets of PVDF (poly(vinylidene fluoride)) homopolymers and copolymers without fillers or reinforcing materials, including sheet supplied in rolled form. The scope limits the thickness range to 1 mm up to 15 mm and sets out the specified property requirements and the test methods to verify conformity. The standard is intended for material definition and laboratory verification rather than for detailed product design or installation rules.

Key topics and requirements

• Material definition: PVDF homopolymers and copolymers; additives limited to approved processing aids, stabilizers and colorants — no fillers or reinforcements permitted.
• Thickness range and product forms: Solid flat extruded sheets and rolled sheet forms; thickness covered: 1 mm to 15 mm.
• Mechanical and physical property requirements: tensile properties, impact (Charpy), dimensional stability on heating, melt-flow characteristics and other specified properties as applicable.
• Test methods and normative references: references to ISO 179‑1/2 (Charpy impact), ISO 527‑2 (tensile), ISO 1133 (MFR/MVR), ISO 11501 (dimensional change on heating), ISO 12086‑1 and other related ISO test methods.
• Conformity and specification: guidance for specifying sheet material properties and verifying conformity by laboratory testing to the listed test methods.

Typical use and users

Used by PVDF sheet manufacturers, extrusion plants, material procurement/specification engineers, testing and quality laboratories, product designers selecting fluoropolymer sheet for chemical-resistant linings, architectural panels or industrial components, and standards/regs committees referencing PVDF sheet performance. It supports material specifications for chemical processing, corrosion-resistant construction, architectural cladding and related applications.

Related standards

Commonly referenced documents and related standards include ISO 1133 (melt mass/volume flow rate), ISO 11501 (dimensional change on heating for films/sheets), ISO 527‑2 (tensile properties for moulding and extrusion plastics), ISO 179‑1/2 (Charpy impact tests), ISO 12086‑1 (designation system for fluoropolymer extrusion materials) and other ISO test-method standards cited in the normative references of ISO 15014.

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: ISO 15014 is an international standard that defines requirements and test methods for solid flat extruded sheets of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF). The title appears in national/adopted forms; the DIN English adoption is catalogued as E DIN ISO 15014:2015-01.

Q: What does it cover?

A: It covers the material definition (PVDF homopolymers and copolymers without fillers), product form (extruded sheets and rolled sheet), the applicable thickness range (1–15 mm) and specific laboratory test methods and property requirements (tensile, impact, melt flow, dimensional change, etc.).

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: Sheet manufacturers, extrusion and converting companies, quality/control laboratories, material specifiers (engineers and purchasers), and designers selecting PVDF sheet for chemical-resistant or architectural applications. Standards bodies and conformity assessment bodies also use it as a technical reference.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: The original ISO publication is ISO 15014:2007 (Edition 1, published October 2007) and ISO records show the publication reviewed and confirmed in subsequent systematic reviews (the ISO bibliographic record indicates confirmation in recent reviews). The DIN English adoption is listed in vendor/catalog records as E DIN ISO 15014:2015-01 (catalog date 2015-01) and some catalogue entries flag the DIN file as withdrawn in their collections — check the national standards body (DIN) or your national catalogue for the current national status before purchase.

Q: Is it part of a series?

A: ISO 15014 is a standalone product-standard for PVDF extruded sheets but it relies on and references a range of ISO test-method standards (ISO 1133, ISO 527, ISO 11501, ISO 179, ISO 12086‑1, etc.), which together form the related test-method and materials reference set used by plastics practitioners.

Q: What are the key keywords?

A: PVDF, poly(vinylidene fluoride), extruded sheet, fluoropolymer, test methods, tensile, Charpy impact, MFR/MVR, dimensional stability, 1–15 mm.
