This recommended practice provides a system for specifying significant requirements of automotive plastic parts or specimens taken from said parts. It should apply to parts only and not to the materials produced for the manufacture of parts used in the automotive and related industries.

This SAE Recommended Practice provides a system for classification and specification for limited number of acrylonitrile/butadiene/styrene (ABS) and blends with polycarbonate (ABS+PC) plastics used in the Automotive Industry. Based upon ASTM D 4673, Classification System for (ABS) Molding Materials, it calls for additional descriptive characteristics and properties commonly used in the Automotive Industry. This practice applies to natural, non-color matched black, and plating gray compounds only. Color matched compounds shall be defined by the proprietary OEM standards. This practice allows for the use of recycled, reconstituted, and regrind materials provided that the requirements as stated in this document are met, the material has not been altered or modified to change its suitability for safe processing and use, and the material shall be identified as such.

This SAE Recommended Practice provides a screening procedure for evaluating the susceptibility of plastics to environmental stress cracking by testing their resistance to pure solvents or their mixtures. This method can be used to evaluate effect of complex chemical mixtures with unknown or suspect components, which may be encountered in the polymer's environment.

This SAE Recommended Practice is intended to establish uniform procedures for developing specifications for automotive thermoplastics. It is intended for use by automotive companies and their suppliers of molded and/ or fabricated parts from thermoplastic materials.

This SAE Recommended Practice provides a system for classification and specification for limited number of polyamides (nylons) used in the Automotive Industry. Based upon ASTM D 4066, Classification System for Nylon Injection and Extrusion Materials (PA), it calls for additional descriptive characteristics and properties commonly used in the Automotive Industry. This document applies to natural and non-color matched black, heat-stabilized polyamide compounds only. Color matched compounds shall be defined by the proprietary OEM standards. This document allows for the use of recycled, reconstituted, and regrind materials provided that the requirements as stated in this document are met, the material has not been altered or modified to change its suitability for safe processing and use, and the material shall be identified as such.
