Reaffirmed 2021
NATIONAL FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Part 2/Sec 1) (First Revision) which is identical with ISO 293 : 2004 ‘Plastics— Compression moulding of test specimens of thermoplastic materials’ issued by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on the recommendation of the Plastics Sectional Committee and approval of the Petroleum, Coal and Related Products Division Council.
This standard was originally published in 1992. This revision has been undertaken to align it with the latest version of ISO 293.
The text of ISO Standard has been approved as suitable for publication as an Indian Standard without deviations. Certain conventions are however not identical to those used in Indian Standards. Attention is particularly drawn to the following:
a) Wherever the words ‘International Standard’ appear referring to this standard, they should be read as ‘Indian Standard’.
b) Comma (,) has been used as a decimal marker while in Indian Standards, the current practice is to use a point (.) as the decimal marker.
