Foreword
Introduction
1 Scope
2 Analysis of the alteration stages and mechanisms
  2.1 Alteration stages
  2.2 Degradation mechanisms
3 Basic situations to be distinguished
  3.1 Individualised situations
  3.2 Correlation to term
4 The actual situations
  4.1 Heterogeneous degradation
  4.2 Formulated plastics
  4.3 Qualifiers
5 Vocabulary
  5.1 Axioms for the vocabulary
  5.2 Terms and definitions
Annex A (informative) Terms and definition listed in
        alphabetical order

This guide provides the vocabulary to be used in the field of polymers and plastic materials and items.The proposed terms and definitions are directly issued from a scientific and technical analysis of the various stages and mechanisms involved in the alteration of plastics up to mineralization, bioassimilation and biorecycling of macromolecular compounds and polymeric products; i.e polymeric items.NOTEThe proposed vocabulary is intended also to be in agreement with a terminology usable in various domains dealing with time limited plastic applications, namely biomedical, pharmaceutical, environmental, i.e., in surgery, medicine, agriculture, or plastics waste management.
