Foreword
IS0 (the international Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of
national standards institutes (IS0 member bodies). The work of developing lnter-
national Standards is carried out through IS0 technical committees. Every member
body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been set up has the
right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to
the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as International Standards by
the IS0 Council.
International Standard IS0 62 was developed by Technical Committee lSO/TC 61,
a nd was circulated to the member bodies
P/as tics, in May 1978.
It has been approved by the member bodies of the following countries :
Australia India Romania
Austria Iran
South Africa, Rep. of
Belgium Israel Spain
Bulgaria
Italy Sweden
Canada Japan Switzerland
Czechoslovakia Korea, Rep. of Turkey
Finland
Mexico United Kingdom
France Netherlands USA
Greece New Zealand USSR
Hungary Poland Yugoslavia
The member body of the following country expressed disapproval of the document on
technical grounds :
Germany, F. R.
This International Standard cancels and replaces IS0 Recommendations R 62-1958
and R 117-1959, of which it constitutes a technical revision.
