NATIONAL FOREWORD

This Indian Standard which is identical to ISO 5677 : 2023 'Testing and characterization of mechanically recycled polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE) for intended use in different plastics processing techniques' issued by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on recommendation(s) of the Plastics Sectional Committee and approval of the Petroleum, Coal and Related Products Division Council.

This subject was proposed by BIS, India at ISO level and was formulated and published under the leadership of an Indian expert.

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'; and

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.
