9、 list of organizations represented on this committee can be obtained on request to its secretary. SupersessionThis British Standard supersedes both BS 7531:1992 andBS F 130:1987, which are withdrawn.Information about this documentThis new edition represents a full revision of the standard, and intro

10、duces the following principal change:Expansion of the Scope and amendment to the text to include two grades for use in aerospace applications which were previously covered in BS F 130:1987.Hazard warningsWARNING. This British Standard calls for the use of substances and/or procedures that can be inj

11、urious to health if adequate precautions are not taken. It refers only to technical suitability and does not absolve the user from legal obligations relating to health and safety at any stage.Presentational conventionsThe provisions of this standard are presented in roman (i.e. upright) type. Its re

12、quirements are expressed in sentences in which the principal auxiliary verb is “shall”.Commentary, explanation and general informative material is presented in smaller italic type, and does not constitute a normative element.Contractual and legal considerationsThis publication does not purport to in

13、clude all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users are responsible for its correct application.Compliance with a British Standard cannot confer immunity from legal obligations.The BSI copyright notice displayed in this document indicates when the document was last issued.
