Abstract

This European Standard defines general terms which are helpful for the communication within the aluminium industry and its customers relating to products of aluminium and aluminium alloys. It includes terms dealing with aluminium products, processing, sampling and testing, product characteristics and different types of visual quality characteristics. It does not include terms dealing with bauxite mining, alumina and anode production and aluminium smelting. This European Standard tries to be as close as possible to terms and definitions as used in other standards or documents. NOTE For materials other than aluminium, different definitions can apply for terms which are defined in this document. This European Standard tries to follow the "common language" as used in native English speaking countries, without giving preference to specific idioms of one of these counties. In cases where in different English-speaking countries different terms are used for the same concept or different concepts refer to an identical term, it gives the appropriate explanations.
