Overview

ISO 1043-1:2011/Amd 1:2016 is an official amendment to the international standard ISO 1043-1:2011, published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). This standard addresses symbols and abbreviated terms for plastics, specifically focusing on basic polymers and their special characteristics. The 2016 amendment introduces a new symbol "ST" designated for syndiotactic polymers, clarifying terminology and avoiding duplication issues in polymer classification.

This update is critical for professionals involved in plastics manufacturing, materials science, and quality assurance, providing clear and consistent identification of polymer types according to internationally accepted terms.

Key Topics

  • New Symbol Introduction
    The amendment adds the symbol ST to represent syndiotactic polymers. This addition helps distinguish syndiotactic polystyrene from other polymer types that previously shared abbreviated terms, improving clarity.

  • Abbreviated Term for Syndiotactic Polystyrene
    The update also includes the abbreviated term PS-ST for syndiotactic polystyrene, following the standard's system for polymer classification.

  • Standardization and Terminology
    This standard is published under the responsibility of ISO/TC 61, Subcommittee SC 1 (Terminology), ensuring it aligns with the broader set of ISO rules for plastics terminology and complies with ISO/IEC Directives.

  • International Collaboration and Compliance
    ISO works closely with international bodies like the IEC, considering patent rights and trade implications while maintaining widely accepted technical terms for material classification.

Applications

  • Polymer Identification and Labeling
    Manufacturers and suppliers use the symbols and abbreviations defined in ISO 1043-1/Amd 1 to correctly label plastics materials, facilitating communication across the supply chain.

  • Quality Control and Material Specification
    Consistent use of the ST symbol enables accurate specification of syndiotactic polymers, crucial for product testing, certification, and compliance with industry regulations.

  • Research and Development
    Researchers use standardized terminology when studying polymer properties, especially for syndiotactic materials whose characteristics can impact product design and performance.

  • Regulatory and Documentation
    Regulatory bodies and technical documentation adopt ISO standard terms, ensuring that materials are unambiguously described in permits, patents, and industry reports.

Related Standards

  • ISO 1043 Series
    The broader ISO 1043 family covers symbols and abbreviations for various categories of plastics and elastomers, facilitating comprehensive classification systems.

  • ISO/IEC Directives
    These directives outline the procedures for developing and maintaining ISO standards, ensuring consistency and transparency in international standardization activities.

  • ISO/TC 61 Plastics Standards
    This technical committee publishes numerous standards related to plastics terminology, testing, and specifications, complementing the classification system established in ISO 1043-1.

  • Other Polymer Terminology Standards
    Standards related to polymer chemistry and materials science often reference ISO 1043-1 symbols, supporting uniform language across technical documents and industries.


By merging clarity and precision in polymer identification, ISO 1043-1:2011/Amd 1:2016 significantly enhances global communication on plastics materials. The introduction of the ST symbol for syndiotactic polymers supports the evolving needs of industries relying on accurate material description and contributes to improved material management worldwide.

Avant-propos
L’ISO (Organisation internationale de normalisation) est une fédération mondiale d’organismes
nationaux de normalisation (comités membres de l’ISO). L’élaboration des Normes internationales est
en général confiée aux comités techniques de l’ISO. Chaque comité membre intéressé par une étude
a le droit de faire partie du comité technique créé à cet effet. Les organisations internationales,
gouvernementales et non gouvernementales, en liaison avec l’ISO participent également aux travaux.
L’ISO collabore étroitement avec la Commission électrotechnique internationale (IEC) en ce qui
concerne la normalisation électrotechnique.
Les procédures utilisées pour élaborer le présent document et celles destinées à sa mise à jour sont
décrites dans les Directives ISO/IEC, Partie 1. Il convient, en particulier de prendre note des différents
critères d’approbation requis pour les différents types de documents ISO. Le présent document a été
