1.1 The purpose of this terminology is to provide uniform contractions of terms relating to plastics. Abbreviated terminology has evolved through widespread common usage. This compilation has been prepared to avoid both the occurrence of more than one abbreviated term for a given plastics term and multiple meanings for abbreviated terms. 1.2 The scope of these abbreviated terms includes plastics terms pertaining to composition and relating to type or kind according to mode of preparation or principle distinguishing characteristics. Also included are abbreviated terms for terms relating to copolymers, blends and alloys of plastics, and additives such as plasticizers, fillers, etc. 1.3 No attempt is made here to
systematize formally a shorthand terminology for polymers.
Terminology, including nomenclature, codes, symbols, and formula
designations for use in scientific literature in the field of
natural and synthetic polymers, are being studied and standardized
by the International Union of Pure and Applied
Chemistry.1.4 These abbreviated terms are by
no means all-inclusive of plastics terminology. They represent, in
general, those terms that have come into established use. Since it
is recognized that abbreviated terms serve no useful purpose unless
they are generally accepted and used, no attempt has been made to
establish a rigorous code for devising standard abbreviated terms.
This would result in awkward departures from established usage of
existing and accepted abbreviated terms and lead to cumbersome
combinations in the future, which would not be likely to receive
widespread acceptance. The abbreviated terms now in use have grown
naturally out of the need for convenient, readily comprehended
shorthand for long chemical names. This process can be expected to
continue along the natural lines of least resistance and will serve
as a basis for further standardization as the need arises. A
general guide for the preparation of abbreviated terms appears
desirable, however, to facilitate more organized and uniform
standardization in the future. An appendix is attached, which
suggests a uniform way to prepare abbreviated terms.
1.5 Note that the uppercase letter F should be used to designate phosphate and that other elements may also be designated F. 1.6 An abbreviated term (FR) and code numbers are provided to identify classes of materials used as flame retardants added to plastics. The system is provided for use in situations where marking of plastics products is desired.
