Plastics. Biobased content. Determination of biobased mass content | Status: Superseded, Withdrawn

1 Scope This document specifies a method of determining the biobased mass content in plastics products, based on the radiocarbon analysis and elemental analysis. This document is applicable to plastic products and plastic materials, polymer resins, monomers or additives, which are made from biobased or fossil-based constituents. This method is applicable, provided that the plastic product contains carbon element and that a statement giving its elemental composition and its biobased mass content is available.
