Repeat this

30、 at approximately 1 m intervals throughout the length of the roll. Cut the strips into rectangles (50 1) mm long3 (30 1) mm wide (see figure 1). 4.4.1.2 Borders Cut a strip of (30 1) mm width through the whole length of the border. Cut this strip into rectangles of (50 1) mm length. Use the appropri

31、ate number of rolls to produce at least 50 rectangles (see figure 2). 4.4.2 Selection of test specimens Select by visual inspection the 10 rectangles which have the maximum amount of coating and/or the deepest yellow or red colour. Condition in accordance with ISO 187. Cut these 10 rectangles into s

32、quares of approximately 6m m36 mm and mix the squares obtained. 4.5 Procedure 4.5.1 Extraction method Weigh to the nearest milligram (1 0,05) g of the small squares (4.4.2) in a glass container of approximately 100 ml capacity. Add (50 0,1) ml of the hydrochloric acid (4.2.2) at (37 2) C. Shake vigo

33、rously for 1 min, determine the pH of the solution (4.3.2). If the pH is higher than 1,5 add dropwise, while shaking, the hydrochloric acid (4.2.3) until the pH is below 1,5 and above 1,0. Mount the container on a shaker (4.3.3) and place in the oven (4.3.4) at (37 2) C, shake the mixture at (37 2)

34、C for (60 2) min, then allow to stand at (37 2) C for (60 2) min. Filter immediately through the 0,45mm pore size filter (4.3.5) and collect the filtrate for the determination of the heavy metal (or other elements) content.Page 4 EN 12149 : 1997 BSI 1998 1 2 1 m 30 mm 30 mm 50 mm 3 1.
