IS 5461 : 2024/ISO 4497 : 2020 Metallic Powders - Determination of Particle Size by Dry Sieving
NATIONAL FOREWORD
This Indian Standard which is identical to ISO 4497 : 2020 'Metallic powders - Determination of particle size by dry sieving' issued by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on the recommendation of the Powder Metallurgical Materials and Products Sectional Committee and approval of the Metallurgical Engineering Division Council.
This standard was originally published in 1969 and subsequently revised in 1984. The second revision of this standard has been undertaken to align with the latest version ISO 4497 : 2020 to harmonize it with the latest developments that have taken place at international level.
The changes compared to the previous edition is inclusion of a precision statement.
The text of ISO standard has been approved as suitable for publication as in Indian Standard without deviations. Certain terminologies and conventions are, however, not identical with those used in Indian Standard. Attention is especially drawn to the following:
a) Wherever the words 'International Standard' appear referring to this standard, it 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.
