Sintered metal materials, excluding hardmetals — Permeable sintered metal materials — Determination of density, oil content and open porosity (Edition 4, 2026)

Abstract
This document specifies methods for determining the density (dry density or fully impregnated density), oil content (related to test piece volume and related to open porosity) and open porosity of permeable sintered metal materials.

This document applies in particular to porous metal bearings and to structural parts produced by pressing and sintering metal powders.
