Plastics - Determination of matter extractable by organic solvents (conventional methods) (ISO/DIS 6427:2024)

ISO 6427:2013 specifies methods for the determination of components in plastics that can be extracted by hot organic liquids near their boiling points. For one special case, a so-called cold-extraction method is given.
The extractable components can be monomers, oligomers, polymers, plasticizers, stabilizers, etc. The kind and percentage of extractable matter influence the properties of plastics.
The recommended extraction liquid depends on the type of plastic and on the purpose of the determination. The extracted amounts of special constituents are often not quantitative in the sense of analytical chemistry.

Plastiques - Détermination des matières extractibles par des solvants organiques (Méthodes conventionnelles) (ISO/DIS 6427:2024)

L'ISO 6427:2013 spécifie des méthodes pour la détermination des composants dans les plastiques pouvant être extraits au moyen de liquides organiques chauds près de leurs points d'ébullition. Pour une utilisation spéciale, une méthode d'extraction froide est spécifiée.
Les composants extractibles peuvent être des monomères, des oligomères, des polymères, des plastifiants, des stabilisants, etc. La nature et le pourcentage de la matière extractible ont une influence sur les propriétés des plastiques.
Le liquide d'extraction recommandé dépend du type de plastique mis en présence ainsi que du but de la détermination. Les quantités de composants spéciaux extraites sont souvent non quantitatives dans le sens de la chimie analytique.

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).
ISO draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use
of (a) patent(s). ISO takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed
patent rights in respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, ISO had not received
notice of (a) patent(s) which may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are
cautioned that this may not represent the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent
database available at www.iso.org/patents. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all
such patent rights.
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

ISO 6427 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 61, Plastics, Subcommittee SC 5, Physical-
chemical properties.
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition (ISO 6427:2013), which has been technically
revised. The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
— update of normative references;
— addition of tolerances of all relevant test parameters;
— completion of test report.

ISO/DIS 6427:2023(E)
Introduction
There are several very similar national and international standards for determination of the percentage
of extractable matter, with only slight differences in the procedures. To facilitate the work of the
laboratory staff which has to carry out these determinations on various plastics products, the generally
applicable methods are described in this document.

DRAFT INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/DIS 6427:2023(E)
Plastics — Determination of matter extractable by organic
solvents (conventional methods)
1 Scope
This document specifies methods for the determination of components in plastics that can be extracted
by hot organic liquids near their boiling points. For one special case, a so-called cold-extraction method
is given in Annex B.
The extractable components can be monomers, oligomers, polymers, plasticizers, stabilizers, etc. The
kind and percentage of extractable matter influence the properties of plastics.
The recommended extraction liquid depends on the type of plastic and on the purpose of the
determination (see Table 1). The extracted amounts of special constituents are often not quantitative in
the sense of analytical chemistry.
This document does not apply to plastics that come into contact with food or drinking water. Special
regulations for those plastics are established in many countries. In order to test plastics for compliance
with these regulations, methods other than those given in this document are used in most cases. The
methods of this document are not intended to be used for migration tests.
If this document is used to test plastics other than those mentioned in Table 1, the operating conditions
are intended to be agreed upon by the interested parties.

4 Reagents and materials
4.1 Extraction liquid, of AR grade and higher grade, to be selected according to the requirements of
the plastic material being tested (see Table 1).
4.2 Anti‑bumping granules.
4.3 Glass wool, pre‑extracted.
5 Apparatus
5.1 Mill, for reducing the sample to the required grain size.
A mill in which the sample is cut between rotating and stationary blades is preferred. Large pieces can
be reduced in size with a pair of shears before they are fed into the mill.

of ISO 1773, with ground-glass neck complying with the requirements of ISO 383.
5.4 Extraction apparatus, of such a design that the crucible or thimble is heated by the rising vapour
of the extraction liquid.
5.4.1 Soxhlet extractor, as shown in Figure 1.
5.4.2 Other extractors, for example that designed by Twisselmann (see Figure 2), may be used, if
they give the same results as the Soxhlet extractor.
5.5 Container, for the test portion to be extracted: chosen from one of the following:
