6、 and (2) the material has not beenmodified in any way to alter its conformance to food contactregulations or similar requirements. The proportions of re-cycled, reconstituted, and reground material used, as well asthe nature and the amount of any contaminant, cannot bepractically covered in this spe

7、cification. It is the responsibilityof the supplier and the buyer of recycled, reconstituted, andreground materials to ensure compliance. (See Guide D7209.)1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard.NOTE 1The properties included in this specification are those re-quired to i
