Significance and Use4.1 This guide is intend

18、ed to provide terminology for bothsuppliers and users of polymer pellets to ensure mutualunderstanding in discussions concerning pellet defects. It is notan absolute standard but is to be referred to when issues withthe quality and/or description of the polymeric materials arise.4.2 The guide is cat

19、egorized according to the best fit for theterm and its description for ease of finding certain descriptiontypes.4.3 Some terms within this guide do not apply to all resintypes. It is the users responsibility to determine if the term andits subsequent definition are applicable to the material inquest
