This list is n
17、ot complete and only comprises those terms for which the definition is considered necessary for correct and adequate understanding in order to clarify these processes. It should be understood that the interpretations given are those corresponding to the practical usage in this field and that they do
18、 not necessarily coincide with those used in other fields. For purposes of clarification, the term Vitreous Enamel, used throughout this European Standard, is synonymous with Porcelain Enamel, the term favoured in the United States and some other countries. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes o
19、f this document, the following terms and definitions apply. NOTE Annex A lists alternative terms and cross refers to primary terms used below. 2.1 abrasive blasting process for cleaning or finishing by means of an abrasive directed at high velocity against the work piece 2.2 abrasion resistance degr
