Overview

EN ISO 17070:2015 - titled Leather - Chemical tests - Determination of tetrachlorophenol-, trichlorophenol-, dichlorophenol-, monochlorophenol‑isomers and pentachlorophenol content (ISO 17070:2015) - specifies an analytical method for quantifying chlorinated phenols (including PCP and various chloro‑isomers), their salts and esters in leather. Prepared by IULTCS in cooperation with CEN, this standard replaces the 2006 edition and is intended for laboratories performing chemical testing of leather.

Key topics and technical requirements

• Analytes covered: tetrachlorophenols (TeCP), trichlorophenols (TriCP), dichlorophenols (DiCP), monochlorophenols (MoCP) isomers and pentachlorophenol (PCP). (Bromophenols can also be measured by the same method.)
• Principle: steam‑distillation of a prepared leather sample, extraction into n‑hexane, acetylation of chlorinated phenols, and analysis of the resulting chlorinated phenyl acetates by gas chromatography.
• Detection: gas chromatography (GC) using an electron capture detector (ECD) or a mass selective detector (MSD) for separation and quantification.
• Quantification strategy: external calibration corrected by an internal standard - tetrachloroguaiacol (TCG) is specified as the internal standard.
• Sample preparation: sampling and preparation are aligned with ISO 2418 and ISO 4044; typical test is performed on about 1.0 g of leather (as described in the standard).
• Apparatus and reagents: specified equipment includes steam‑distillation apparatus, GC (ECD or MSD), analytical balance and separation vessels; reagents include a defined chlorinated phenol mix, TCG internal standard, n‑hexane, acetic anhydride (for acetylation), potassium carbonate, sulfuric acid and others.
• Results and reporting: the standard gives procedures for expression of results and test reporting, plus informative annexes on chromatographic conditions and method reliability.

Applications and who uses it

• Leather manufacturers and tanneries: quality control to ensure finished products meet chemical safety and regulatory limits for chlorinated phenols.
• Analytical and QA laboratories: routine testing and verification of leather chemical content using GC/ECD or GC/MS methods.
• Regulatory bodies and environmental compliance teams: monitoring PCP and related chlorophenol residues for consumer safety and environmental requirements.
• Product compliance and certification services: assessment for restricted substances lists, ecolabels, and supply‑chain chemical audits.

Related standards

• ISO 2418 - Sampling location for leather and furs
• ISO 4044 - Preparation of chemical test samples (leather)
• ISO 3696 - Water for analytical laboratory use
• ISO 4684 - Determination of volatile matter (leather)

This standard is essential for accurate determination of chlorinated phenols in leather, combining steam‑distillation, chemical derivatization (acetylation) and GC analysis to provide reliable, comparable test results across laboratories. Keywords: EN ISO 17070:2015, leather chemical tests, chlorinated phenols, pentachlorophenol, gas chromatography, steam distillation, TCG internal standard.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to the WTO principles in the Technical Barriers
to Trade (TBT) see the following URL: Foreword - Supplementary information
ISO 17070 was prepared by the Chemical Test Commission of the International Union of Leather
Technologists and Chemists Societies (IUC Commission, IULTCS) in collaboration with the European
Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee CEN/TC 289, Leather, the secretariat of
which is held by UNI, in accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN
(Vienna Agreement).
IULTCS, originally formed in 1897, is a world-wide organization of professional leather societies to
further the advancement of leather science and technology. IULTCS has three Commissions, which are
responsible for establishing international methods for the sampling and testing of leather. ISO recognizes
IULTCS as an international standardizing body for the preparation of test methods for leather.
This second edition of ISO 17070 cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 17070:2006), which has been
technically revised. ISO 17070:2006 previously replaced CEN/TS 14494.
The following changes have been made:
— the additional chlorinated phenol substances tetrachlorophenol-, trichlorophenol-, dichlorophenol-,
and monochlorophenol-isomers are included;
— a new Clause 3 has been inserted to list the chlorophenol abbreviations;
— the examples of chromatographic conditions, previously in 7.4, have been moved to a new Annex A
(the previous Annex A becomes Annex B).
Annexes A and B are informative.
