Scope
This International Standard specifies a method for determining the ultimate aerobic biodegradability of plasticmaterials in soil by measuring the oxygen demand in a closed respirometer or the amount of carbon dioxideevolved. The method is designed to yield an optimum degree of biodegradation by adjusting the humidity ofthe test soil.
