6、on of BS3130-5:1976, which is withdrawn. In this revision many terms have been deleted as no longer relevant, additional terms have been included where appropriate and a number of definitions have been revised. In other Parts of BS3130 the terms have been arranged so that related subjects are groupe
7、d together. In this Part the terms included are so diverse, with many being general in application, that it was decided to list them purely alphabetically. Each term has a four digit number consisting of a Part number (one digit) followed by a space, with the remaining three digits indicating the po
8、sition of the term within the Part. Italicized words in definitions indicate terms that are defined elsewhere in this glossary. Terms of more than one word, e.g.“blown film” are written in the direct style. Generally terms are given in the singular, even when the plural form is more common. Terms wh
9、ich are preferred are given first, followed by alternative terms, separated by semicolons, e.g.cold seal; cohesive seal. Abbreviations of terms are given in parentheses where these are in common usage in the industry. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a c
10、ontract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations.
