Overview
This document contains uniform abbreviations for plastics and code letters for the structure of these abbreviations, as well as code letters for identifying special properties of the plastics. It includes only those abbreviated terms that have come into established use and its aim is both to prevent the occurrence of more than one abbreviated term for a given plastic and to prevent a given abbreviated term being interpreted in more than one way. The responsible German committee is Working Committee NA 054-01-01 AA "Terminologie" ("Terminology") at DIN Standards Committee Plastics (FNK).
