Plastics - Evaluation of compostability - Test scheme and specifications
This European Standard specifies requirements and procedures to determine the compostability or anaerobic treatability of plastic materials by addressing four characteristics:
I) biodegradability,
II) disintegration during biological treatment,
III) effect on the biological treatment process and
IV) effect on the quality of the resulting compost.
NOTE For packaging EN 13432 applies.
Kunststoffe - Bewertung der Kompostierbarkeit - Prüfschema und Spezifikationen
Diese Europäische Norm legt Anforderungen und Verfahren fest zum Bestimmen der Kompostierbarkeit oder anaeroben Behandelbarkeit von Kunststoffmaterialien mit Hilfe folgender vier Eigenschaften:
1) biologische Abbaubarkeit;
2) Desintegration während der biologischen Behandlung;
3) Auswirkung auf den biologischen Behandlungsprozess;
Auswirkung auf die Qualität des entstandenen Komposts.
