Historical Standard: ASTM D1082-00(2005) Standard Test Method for Dissipation Factor and Permittivity (Dielectric Constant) of Mica
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM D1082
1. Scope
1.1 This test method covers the determination of the dissipation factor and the relative permittivity of natural block mica having thicknesses between 0.007 and 0.030 in. (0.18 and 0.77 mm) and mica films or capacitor splits between 0.0008 and 0.004 in. (0.02 and 0.10 mm) in thickness.
1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The values in parentheses are for information purposes only.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. A specific warning statement is given in Section and .
Note 1Procedures for the measurement of dissipation factor and permittivity are given in IEC Publication 60371-2, but the details of the procedure are somewhat different from those specified in this test method.
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
