Title

In the notification No G/TBT/N/IND/293, dated 15th August, 2023, the Column no. 7 may be replaced as below:Polypropylene (PP) is a member of the polyolefin family, since its monomer, propylene, is an unsaturated hydrocarbon and belongs to a class of chemical compounds called olefins. Because the monomers of polypropylene (propylene) and polyethylene (ethylene) are so similar, the polymers have many of the similar properties. However, there are several major differences, including density (polypropylene’s is lower), service temperature (polypropylene’s is higher), rigidity (polypropylene is more rigid), resistance to environmental stress cracking (polypropylene’s resistance is higher), and susceptibility to oxidation (polypropylene is worse than polyethylene). Polypropylene is characterized by good mechanical properties, excellent chemical and thermal as well as electrical properties and aesthetic appeal in applications such as clear films. Its lower cost per unit weight and high yield on a volume basis, due to the low density, offers considerable economic advantage to the converter and end-user.The Order seeks to ensure that the locally manufactured or imported goods shall conform to the Indian Standard (IS 10951: 2020) and shall bear the standard mark under license from the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) as per Scheme-I of Schedule-II of the Bureau of Indian Standards (Conformity Assessment) Regulations, 2018. The use of standard mark is governed by the provisions of Bureau of Indian Standards Act, 2016 and the Rules and Regulations made thereunder. Bureau of Indian Standards shall be the certifying and enforcing authority.
