ASTM D20 (Committee on Plastics)

ASTM D20 is a standard developed by the Committee on Plastics that provides consistent methods for testing the physical and chemical properties of plastics. It ensures that different laboratories and manufacturers can produce and evaluate plastics using the same procedures, enabling reliable comparisons. The standard covers tests such as measuring density, tensile strength, flexibility, chemical resistance, and other key characteristics of plastic materials. By following ASTM D20, the plastics industry maintains quality, safety, and performance standards, facilitating the development and certification of plastic products across various applications.
