Scope: What is ISO 16620-2 - Biobased carbon content in plastics about? ISO 16620 discusses the biobased content of plastics. ISO 16620-2 is the second part of the ISO 16620 multi-series and discusses the determination of biobased carbon content in plastics. ISO 16620-2 specifies a calculation method for the determination of the biobased carbon content in monomers, polymers, and plastic materials and products, based on the 14C content measurement. ISO 16620-2 is applicable to plastic products and plastic materials (e.g., plasticisers or modifiers), polymer resins, monomers, or additives which, are made from biobased or fossil-based constituents. Knowing the biobased content of plastic products is useful when evaluating their environmental impact. Who is ISO 16620-2 - Biobased carbon content in plastics for ? ISO 16620-2 on biobased carbon content in plastics is useful for: Plastic product manufacturers Plastic manufacturers Quality control personnel Why should you use ISO 16620-2 - Biobased carbon content in plastics ? Increased use of biomass resources for manufacturing plastic products is effective in reducing global warming and the depletion of fossil resources. Current plastic products are composed of biobased synthetic polymers, fossil-based synthetic polymers, natural polymers, and additives that can include biobased materials. “Biobased plastics” refer to plastics that contain material...
