The adoption of the ISO Standard as a Malaysian Standard was recommended by the
Technical Committee on Soap and Detergent under the authority of the Industry Standards
Committee on Chemicals and Materials.
This Malaysian Standard is identical with ISO 4313:1976, Washing powders - Determination
of total phosphorus(V) oxide content - Quinoline phosphomolybdate gravimetric method,
published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). However, for the
purposes of this Malaysian Standard, the following apply:
a) in the source text, "this International Standard" should read "this Malaysian Standard";
b) the comma which is used as a decimal sign (if any), to read as a point; and
c) reference to International Standards should be replaced by corresponding Malaysian
Standards as follows:
Referenced International Standards Corresponding Malaysian Standards
ISO 607:1980, Surface active agents and
detergents - Method of sample division
MS ISO 607:2004, Surface active agents
and detergents - Method of sample division
Compliance with a Malaysian Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal
obligations.
