1、Designation: D3475 16D3475 17Standard Classification ofChild-Resistant Packages1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D3475; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in paren
2、theses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This classification covers various types of child-resistant packages.1.2 The examples for each type of child-resistant packaging are not intended to b
3、e all-inclusive, but are included only as an aidin the understanding and comprehension of each type of classification.1.3 Listings are not to be considered endorsements or approval of the package by ASTM.1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized prin
4、ciples on standardizationestablished in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issuedby the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.2. Terminology2.1 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:2.1.1 child
5、-resistant packageas defined by the Poison Prevention Packaging Act, packaging that is designed or constructedto be significantly difficult for children under five years of age to open or obtain a toxic or harmful amount of the substancecontained therein within a reasonable time, and not difficult f
6、or normal adults to use properly, but does not mean packaging whichall such children cannot open or obtain a toxic or harmful amount within a reasonable time.22.1.2 unit dose packagean immediate product container/package designed and labeled in such a manner that each individualproduct package is in
7、tended to be opened or used one time in a generally non-reclosable or non-resealable manner, separately fromthe other individual product units in the package, or the entire contents of a single unit package intended for use in one application.2.1.2.1 DiscussionNormally used for pharmaceutical, human
8、 healthcare, and nutritional products in dry solid, topical, transdermal, or liquid form.A unit of sale package may contain one or more individual unit dose packages, that is, individually wrapped transdermal patches,pre-filled syringes and syringe cartridges, blister cards with multiple tablets or
9、capsules, and so forth. Unit dose packages may ormay not be child-resistant in accordance with the regulatory requirements of the package contents.2.1.3 unit use/single use packagean immediate product container/package, which may include label directions for use,designed in such a manner that each i
10、ndividual product package is intended to be opened or used one time separately from the otherindividual product units in the package, or the entire contents of a single unit package intended for use in one application.2.1.3.1 DiscussionThese packages are generally non-reclosable or non-reusable. A u
11、nit of sale package may consist of one or more non-reusableindividual packages. Generally used for household, automotive, chemical, pesticide, veterinary, garden and other products notintended for human ingestion. Package styles may include some aerosol, that is, foggers, soluble film, canisters, po
12、uches, and soforth, filled with liquids, dries, powders, and other product forms. Packages may or may not be child-resistant in accordance withthe regulatory requirements of the package contents.1 This classification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F02 on FlexiblePrimary Barrier Packagin
