1.1 该术语涵盖了与耐火材料特别相关的术语，包括原材料、制造、成品、应用和测试程序。 1.2 当本术语中的任何定义被断章取义引用或发表时，在术语后的破折号后编辑插入限制性短语“耐火材料”，以适当限制术语和定义的应用领域。 1.3 本国际标准是根据世界贸易组织技术性贸易壁垒委员会发布的《关于制定国际标准、指南和建议的原则的决定》中确立的国际公认的标准化原则制定的。 =====意义和用途====== 3.1 该术语确保耐火材料特有的术语得到充分定义，以便正确理解和解释使用这些术语的其他标准。 3.2 对于那些不熟悉耐火材料相关术语的人来说，这个术语很有用。然而，对于那些与耐火材料直接相关的人来说，它也是一个现成的参考，可以解决分歧并确保使用的通用性，特别是在制定ASTM标准时。 3.3 虽然这个术语旨在促进耐火材料相关术语使用的统一性，但它永远不可能是完整的，因为新术语不断出现。 这一术语的存在并不排除在其他语境中使用或误用任何术语。

1.1 This terminology covers terms particularly related to refractories and encompasses raw materials, manufacture, finished products, applications, and testing procedures. 1.2 When any of the definitions in this terminology are quoted or published out of context, editorially insert the limiting phrase “in refractories” after the dash following the term to properly limit the field of application of the term and definition. 1.3 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee. ====== Significance And Use ====== 3.1 This terminology ensures that terms peculiar to refractories are adequately defined so that other standards in which such terms are used can be understood and interpreted properly. 3.2 This terminology is useful to those who are not conversant with the terms related to refractories. However, it is also a ready reference for those directly associated with refractories to resolve differences and ensure commonality of usage, particularly in the preparation of ASTM standards. 3.3 Although this terminology is intended to promote uniformity in the usage of terms related to refractories, it can never be complete because new terms are constantly arising. The existence of this terminology does not preclude the use or misuse of any term in another context.
