What is PD CEN/TS 17197 - Construction products about?
PD CEN/TS 17197 is a European standard that discusses the assessment of the release of dangerous substances for construction products.
PD CEN/TS 17197 specifies the method for the determination of major, minor and trace elements in aqua regia and nitric acid digests and eluates of construction products by Inductively Coupled Plasma – Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES).
The method in PD CEN/TS 17197 applies to construction products and is validated for the product types listed in Annex D.
NOTE 1: Construction products include mineral-based products (S); bituminous products (B); metals (M); wood-based products (W); plastics and rubbers (P); sealants and adhesives (A); paints and coatings (C), see also CEN/TR 16045.
NOTE 2: The method in this Technical Specification is applicable to construction products and validated for the product types listed in Annex D of this document.
Who is PD CEN/TS 17197 - Construction products for?
PD CEN/TS 17197 on analysis of Inductively Coupled Plasma-Optimal Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES) for construction products applies to:
- Manufacturers of inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry
- Companies dealing with construction products
- Laboratories
Why should you use PD CEN/TS 17197 - Construction products?
Inductively Coupled Plasma – Optical Emission Spectrometry is a trace level analyzing technique that uses the emission spectra of a sample to identify and quantify the elements present.
PD CEN/TS 17197 navigates you through the various types of samples and testing for Inductively Coupled Plasma-Optical Emission Spectrometry such as digest, test analytical sample, test analytical portion, method detection limit and instrument detection limit which help in analyzing inorganic substances by Inductively Coupled Plasma-Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES). With obedience and compliance to PD CEN/TS 17197, you can be confident in conducting the testing procedures.
What’s changed since the last update?
PD CEN/TS 17197:2018 supersedes CEN/TS 17197:2018, which is withdrawn. It includes:
- This document includes the corrigendum 1 which corrects two values in D.4.8 and D.4.9.
