BS EN ISO 17072-2:2022 - TC

This standard BS EN ISO 17072-2:2022 - TC Tracked Changes. Leather. Chemical determination of metal content is classified in these ICS categories:

• 59.140.30 Leather and furs

This document specifies a method for the determination of the total metal content in leather using digestion of the leather and subsequent determination with inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES), inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) or spectrometry of atomic fluorescence (SFA). This method determines the total metal content in leather. It is not compound-specific or specific to the oxidation state of the metals.
