This standard lists hazardous chemicals and chemical products in common use and indicates their principal and subsidiary hazards.

Adopted ASTM D 1598-02. This test method covers the determination of the time-to-failure of both thermoplastic and reinforced thermosetting/

resin pipe under constant internal pressure.     

This test method covers the determination of the resistance of either thermoplastic or reinforced thermosetting resin pipe, tubing, or fittings to hydraulic pressure in a short time period. Procedure A is used to determine burst pressure of a specimen if the mode of failure is to be determined. Procedure B is used to determine that a specimen compiles with a minimum burst requirement.

 This specification covers the socket produced for solvent cement joints on both pressure and non-pressure IPS pipe.                

This terminology is a compilation of definitions of technical terms used in the plastic piping industry. Terms that are generally understood or adequately defined in other readily available sources are not included. When a term is used in an ASTM document for which Committee F17 is responsible it is included only when judged, after review , by Subcommittee F17.91 to be a generally usable term.

This standard specifies the quality requirements of tomatoes of varieties (cultivars) grown from Lycopersicum esculentum Mill., which are to be supplied fresh to the consumer after reparation and packaging. The standard does not apply to tomatoes for industrial processing. Tomatoes covered under this standard may be classified into four commercial types: a) “round”; b) “ribbed”; c) “oblong” or “elongated”; and d) “cherry” tomatoes (including “cocktail” tomatoes).

This standard stipulates the areas that shall be covered by written product warranties or guarantees, offered by manufacturers, importers, retailers or other vendors in connection with the sale of any goods. It indicates the way in which these warranties or guarantees shall be expressed, and how they shall be used or mentioned in advertising or labelling of goods.

This standard specifies requirements for the operation of laboratories and is applicable to all laboratories regardless of the number of personnel or the extent of the scope of testing activities.

This standard is for use by laboratories in developing their quality, administrative and technical systems that govern their operations. Any party may use this standard when confirming or recognising the competence of laboratories.

This standard sets requirements for the performance, dimensions, labelling, sampling and testing of the following paper products represented for use in personal hygiene and cleaning: (a) facial tissues; (b) paper napkins; (c) paper towels roll or sheet form. Toilet tissue in rolls is covered by a separate standard.

This standard defines technical terms relating to textiles and clothing.
