Abstract
THIS work is designed for that large body of users of plastics who require a central source of information on the varied aspects of the industry. It provides technical data on the materials available commercially, and practical advice on the machinery and technique in their treatment. For the present, the authors are only concerned with developments in the British Commonwealth and the United States, so that this volume bears the title "British International Plastics Annual". Later they visualize a true international plastics annual published in many countries and in many languages but identical in matter. A system of standardization is thus essential, and this is one of the objects the Annual sets out to achieve.
