11.180.20 - Aids for incontinence and ostomy

This document provides a test method that determines the free swell capacity of polyacrylate superabsorbent powders in saline solution.

This document provides a test method for the determination of the fluid retention capacity of polyacrylate superabsorbent powders in saline solution, following centrifugation.

This document provides a test method to determine the mass flow rate and bulk density (or apparent density) of polyacrylate superabsorbent powders.

This document provides a test method to determine the mass fraction of soluble polymers present in crosslinked polyacrylate superabsorbent powders that can be extracted into saline solution.

This document provides a test method for measuring the permeability-dependent absorption under pressure (PDAUP) of polyacrylate superabsorbent powder, where permeability is a significant controlling factor under the conditions of the test.

This document provides a test method that determines the capacity of polyacrylate superabsorbent powders to absorb saline solution under a specified enclosing pressure.

This document provides a test method for the evaluation of mass loss upon heating for cross-linked polyacrylate superabsorbent powders. This method is applicable to powdered polymeric superabsorbent materials that are free-flowing under the specified test conditions. Substances other than water that are volatile in this temperature range will interfere. The onus is on the polymer formulator/producer to decide if such interference is possible and either exclude the method from use, provide an alt...view more

This document provides a test method for determining the pH of granular superabsorbent polyacrylates.

This document specifies a test method for measuring particle size distributions up to 850 µ of cross-linked polyacrylate superabsorbent powders. It applies only to measurements made where sieve shaking is used for the separation. Tapping equipment is not expected to deliver the same results. This method is applicable to powdered polymeric superabsorbent materials that are free-flowing under the specified test conditions.

This International Standard gives guidelines for evaluating the characteristics of assistive products for absorbing urine and faeces. The standard provides a context for the procedures described in other International Standards and published testing procedures. General factors of incontinence products and their usage are also addressed.

ISO 15621:2017 gives guidelines for evaluating absorbent incontinence aids for urine and/or faeces. It provides a context for the procedures described in other International Standards and published testing procedures. General factors relating to incontinence products and their usage are also addressed.

ISO 12505-2:2016 specifies test methods dealing with face plates of skin barriers for ostomy aids. ISO 12505-2:2016 does not cover medical properties (cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation/intracutaneous reactivity, buffering effect, microbiological effects, etc.).

ISO 12505-1:2014 specifies test methods dealing with a face plate of skin barriers for ostomy aids.

ISO 17191:2004 specifies a method for the determination of polyacrylate (PA) superabsorbent powders in airborne dust by measurement of sodium (Na) by atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). PA dust samples are collected in polystyrene acrylonitrile air-monitoring cassettes with polytetrafluoroethylene filters and porous plastic backing pads. This method is applicable to the determination of collected superabsorbent powder in the range between 0,2 micrograms and 60 micrograms (limit of detection ne...view more

This International Standard specifies performance requirements and test methods for irrigation sets, used in colostomy care.

This part of ISO 17190 specifies a method for determining the apparent density of polyacrylate (PA) superabsorbent powders. This method has been tested in the range 0,67 g/ml to 0,72 g/ml (see annex A), but it is expected to be applicable to a wider range.
