Plastics — Determination of Charpy impact properties
Part 1: Non-instrumented impact test

Plastics — Determination of ash
Part 1: General methods

Rubber products — Guidelines for storage

Rigid cellular plastics — Determination of compressive properties

Textiles — Tests for colour fastness
Part X11: Colour fastness to hot pressing

Plastics — Determination of tensile properties
Part 2: Test conditions for moulding and extrusion plastics

Plastics moulded parts — Tolerances and acceptance conditions
