ASTM E2523-06 - 1.12.2006
 
1. Scope

1.1 This terminology standard provides a compilation of ASTM and non-ASTM consensus definitions of terms used in the metalworking industry.

1.2 This terminology standard does not purport to be an exhaustive lexicon. Rather it defines terms relevant to metalworking fluid management and metalworking fluid health and safety.

1.3 This terminology standard defines primary metalworking operations, fluid types and other terms germane to the practice of metalworking fluid management.

This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
