This European Standard specifies a test method for the determination of pentachlorophenol (PCP) in an aqueous extract in pulp, paper and board. Though it is developed for paper and board intended to come into contact with foodstuffs, it is applicable to all kinds of pulp, paper and board.
NOTE 1 It was investigated that a hot water extract (acc. to EN 647) is sufficient for the determination of PCP in pulp, paper and board.
The working range for the method is 0,05 mg/kg to 0,5 mg/kg.
NOTE 2 The upper limit of the working range could be increased if the aqueous extract is diluted.
