This standarddifferskom the September1991edilionof DIN30672-1in that:

a) requiremenlsfor thickness,lensilstrengthand tensilestrainat breakare no longerincluded;
b) the requiredsaponificationnumberhasbeenchanged;
c) the requiredindentationhardnessfor strss classesA and B has been increasedand the residual
thicknessis now the samefor all typesof material;
d) requirements for impactstrengthare morestringent;
e) requirements for peel strengthhavebeenamended;
l) lhe shea.strengthtest has been extendedto coveropsralingtemperatures of up to 30 "C, exceptfor
petrolatumtapesof stressclassB;
g) melhodsof tes! for delerminingthe resistanceof the subskateto ageingat etevatedtemperatures and
the coating'sfreedomlrom poresare no longerincluded.

conductive.The specimensshall be providedwith a coating as specilledby the manufacturerand then
condilioned,with the ioint in its workingposilion,at (23+2)"C for 24 hours.
At a rateof 10 mm per minute,pullthe ioint assembly30 mm apartandthen pushthe pipe sectionsback in lo
