Leder - Bestimmung von ethoxylierten Alkylphenolen - Teil 2: Indirektes Verfahren (ISO 18218-2:2015); Deutsche Fassung EN ISO 18218-2:2015
Overview
This part of ISO 18218 specifies a method for determining alkylphenols (nonylphenol and octylphenol) and alkylphenol ethoxylates (nonylphenol ethoxylate and octylphenol ethoxylate) in leather and process auxiliaries. The analysis is based on high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The analysis of the alkylphenol ethoxylate is made by cleaving the alkylphenol ethoxylate and measuring the released alkylphenol. Annex A, Annex B and Annex C of this part of ISO 18218 are only informative. ISO 18218-1 and this part of ISO 18218 use different solvents for the extraction of the ethoxylated alkylphenols from leather. Consequently, the two analytical methods are expected to give similar trends but not necessarily the same absolute result for the ethoxylated alkylphenol content in leather. This document (EN ISO 18218-2:2015) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 289 "Leather", the secretariat of which is held by UNI, in collaboration with the "International Union of Leather Technologists and Chemists Societies (IULTCS)".
