b. Thermoplastic liquid crystal copolymers having a heat
distortion temperature exceeding 523 K (250 °C) measured
according to ISO 75-2 (2004), method A or national equivalents,
with a load of 1,80 N/mm 2 and composed of:
1. Any of the following compounds:
a. Phenylene, biphenylene or naphthalene; or
b. Methyl, tertiary-butyl or phenyl substituted phenylene,
biphenylene or naphthalene; and
2. Any of the following acids:
a. Terephthalic acid (CAS 100-21-0);
b. 6-hydroxy-2 naphthoic acid (CAS 16712-64-4); or
c. 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (CAS 99-96-7);
c. Not used;
d. Polyarylene ketones;
e. Polyarylene sulphides, where the arylene group is biphenylene,
triphenylene or combinations thereof;
f. Polybiphenylenethersulphone having a ‘glass transition
temperature (T g )’ exceeding 513 K (240 °C).
Technical Note:
The ‘glass transition temperature (T g )’ for 1C008 materials is
determined using the method described in ISO 11357-2 (1999)
or national equivalents. In addition, for 1C008.a.2. materials,
‘glass transition temperature (T g )’ is determined on a PAI test
specimen having initially been cured at a minimum temperature
of 310 °C for a minimum of 15 minutes.
1C009 Unprocessed fluorinated compounds as follows:
a. Copolymers of vinylidene fluoride having 75 % or more beta
crystalline structure without stretching;
b. Fluorinated polyimides containing 10 % by weight or more of
combined fluorine;
c. Fluorinated phosphazene elastomers containing 30 % by weight
or more of combined fluorine.
1C010 ‘Fibrous or filamentary materials’, as follows:
NB: SEE ALSO 1C210 AND 9C110.
a. Organic ‘fibrous or filamentary materials’, having both of the
following:
1. ‘Specific modulus’ exceeding 12,7 × 10 6 m; and
