The work of developing International Standards is carried out through Iso technical committees.

International Standard ISO 197/4 was developed by Technical Committee ISO/TC 26, Copper and copper alloys, and was circulated to the member bodies in January 1982. it has been approved by the member bodies of the following countries : Austria Germany, F.R.
