However, the distilled water specified in JIS Z 8803 to be used as the standard liquid is excluded.

NOTE: From the viewpoint of a strict definition of the physical quantity, the term "density" should be preferred to "specific gravity".

This does not mean, however, that this Standard restricts the use of the latter term in relation to any related laws or regulations.

NOTE: The viscous properties of liquid are generally classified roughly into a Newtonian liquid and a non-Newtonian liquid as defined in clause 3.

For the measurement of Newtonian liquids, when the conditions of measurement are satisfied in any method of measurement, the same dynamic viscosity, kinematic viscosity or dynamic viscosity x density determined by a single meaning of primary importance can be obtained.

For the measurement of non-Newtonian liquid, the apparent viscosity differs corresponding to slip velocity, however the flow curve can be obtained by using the coaxial double cylinder type and cone-flat plate type viscometer.

This Standard is applicable to resin compositions that are in a liquid state prior to curing.

It is also applicable to resins cured under both UV curing and heat curing conditions.

It is not applicable to piston burettes.

Piston dilters, piston dispensers, volumetric pipettes, measuring pipettes and micro syringes.

NOTE: The International Standards corresponding to this Standard and the symbol of degree of correspondence are as follows:

ISO 8655-2:2002 Piston-operated volumetric apparatus – Part 2: Piston pipettes

ISO 8655-6: 2002 Piston-operated volumetric apparatus Part 6: Gravimetric methods for the determination of measurement error (over all evaluation: MOD)

In addition, symbols which denote the degree of correspondence in the contents between the relevant International Standards and JIS are IDT (identical), MOD (modified), and NEQ (not equivalent) according to ISO/IEC Guide 21-1.
