BS EN 13628-1:2002

This standard BS EN 13628-1:2002 Packaging. Flexible packaging material. Determination of residual solvents by static headspace gas chromatography is classified in these ICS categories:

• 55.040 Packaging materials and accessories

This part 1 describes methods for the quantitative determination of residual solvents in flexible packaging by static headspace chromatography. The chemical identities of the residual solvents to be determined by this must be known before commencing the analysis. During the analysis there may be interferences from possible products of thermal decomposition. Residues from thermal decomposition products are not within the scope of this standard. Additional peaks due to these products shall not be considered for evaluation of residual solvents.
