ISO/TC 38/WG 30 - Tests for Biodegradability
Tests de biodégradabilité
General Information
This document specifies a test method for the determination of the biodegradability of the hydrolysate of textile materials obtained after accelerated hydrolysis under controlled composting conditions, by measurement of the amount of evolved carbon dioxide with a gas chromatography or non-dispersive infrared. This test method can be applied to petroleum-based, man-made biodegradable textile materials which are manufactured from polyethylene terephthalate succinate, polycaprolactone, polypropylene carbonate, polybuthylene succinate or copolymer using them.

This document specifies a laboratory test method for determining the aerobic biodegradability of fibres and textile materials in seawater by measuring the biochemical oxygen demand or the amount of carbon dioxide evolved. This method can be applied to fibres and textile materials (e.g. staples, tops, yarns and fabrics).

Frequently Asked Questions
ISO/TC 38/WG 30 is a Working Group within the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). It is named "Tests for Biodegradability". This committee has published 3 standards.
ISO/TC 38/WG 30 develops ISO standards in the area of Information technology. Currently, there are 3 published standards from this working group.
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an independent, non-governmental international organization that develops and publishes international standards. Founded in 1947 and headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, ISO brings together experts from 170+ member countries to share knowledge and develop voluntary, consensus-based standards that support innovation and provide solutions to global challenges.
A Working Group in ISO is a specialized group responsible for developing standards or technical work within a defined scope. These bodies bring together international experts to create consensus-based standards that support global trade, safety, and interoperability.
