This standard specifies a series of requirements for recycled plastics produced from raw materials such as used PET packaging bottles. It primarily applies to "flake" obtained through crushing and cleaning, or "pellets" produced via melting and pelletizing, providing comprehensive specifications for these two mainstream types of recycled PET products, covering classification and naming, technical requirements, inspection rules, packaging, and storage. To ensure material quality and safety, the standard defines testing methods for multiple key properties, such as using a capillary viscometer to determine intrinsic viscosity for evaluating molecular weight. Additionally, the standard explicitly excludes raw materials from hazardous waste sources, such as medical waste and pesticide packaging, and does not apply to mixed recycled materials containing PET and other plastics.
