21、ndards shall be withdrawn at the latest by February 2006. This European Standard supersedes ENV 12498:1997. With regard to ENV 12498:1997, the following changes have been made: a) introduction of the “Inductively coupled plasma emission spectroscopy (ICP)“; b) deletion of the chromium determination;
22、 c) addition of the clause “Precision“; d) editorial updating.

EN 12498:2005 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard is one in a series of Standards for the determinatio
24、n of heavy metals in an aqueous extract of paper or board intended for contact with food. This European Standard specifies the test method for the determination of cadmium and lead in an aqueous extract. It is applicable to paper and paperboard with extractable metal contents exceeding 0,1 mg per kg
25、 for cadmium; 0,6 mg per kg for lead. NOTE 1 The above limits of determination are achieved by multiplying the actual limits existing today or proposed in Europe by 0,2. NOTE 2 Metal content levels below those given can be measured by this European Standard if very sensitive equipment is available a
26、nd if all other laboratory conditions fulfil the requirements for trace element analysis. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this European Standard. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the lates

28、liquot portion from the stabilized cold water (see EN 645) or stabilized hot water extract (see EN 647) (see Clause 6) is analysed by atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) using a graphite tube furnace or inductively coupled plasma emission spectroscopy (ICP). 4 Reagents 4.1 General All reagents and

35、 Preparation of sample Prepare a cold water or a hot water extract from the paper or board using the test methods described in EN 645 or EN 647 respectively. Stabilize the extract by addition of nitric acid (4.2) in the ratio of 1,0 ml per 100,0 ml of sample. Mix the aqueous extract well and take an
36、 aliquot portion for analysis. Use the appropriate matrix modifier(s) (4.7) according to the particular instrument in use and the analytical matrix of the extract. 7 Procedure 7.1 General Detailed instructions depend on the form of the equipment used. Follow the instructions of the manufacturer of t
37、he equipment. Correct the background absorption by use of a suitable system. 7.2 Preparation of reference solutions Prepare the reference solutions daily by diluting the single element solutions with nitric acid (4.2.2). The concentration to be selected will depend on the instrument used and the exp
38、ected concentrations in the extract. For lead, a reference solution containing 10,0 g/l is usually appropriate. For cadmium, a reference solution containing 1,0 g/l is appropriate. Prepare a calibration blank using all the reagents except for the metal stock solutions. 7.3 Determination of cadmium a
39、nd lead 7.3.1 General Carry out two parallel extractions. From each extract at least two parallel determinations shall be carried out. Determine the concentration of the element by means of the calibration graph (7.3.2) or alternatively, by use of the method of standard addition. 7.3.2 Calibration c
40、urve The calibration curve shall contain at least 3 points and cover the total range of concentrations being measured. Calculate the concentration of the element from the measured absorption. 7.3.3 Suggested spectrometer settings Cadmium 228,8 nm Lead 217,0 nm or 283,3 nm (preferred) EN 12498:2005 (
41、E) 7 7.3.4 Determination of blank value Submit the water and reagents used for the extraction to the test procedure to provide a blank value to be deducted from the extract value. NOTE Although not deprecated, the extract can only be supplied to the laboratory, together with the water used for the e
42、xtraction. Without this, no blank can be determined and therefore not deducted from the extract value. If a partial blank is determined this should be reported. 8 Expression of results Calculate the results with a computer or graphically. Take the blank value into consideration in the evaluation. Ex
43、press the results in mg/kg or mg/dm of paper. Calculate the cadmium, lead content of the sample (Cmsee formula (1), Cssee formula (2) as follows: 1000110010010m=fGVCC (1) 1001100001000sbGVCC = (2) where: Cm amount of cadmium or lead soluble of the sample in mg/kg; Csamount of cadmium or lead soluble
44、 of the sample in mg/dm2; C concentration of cadmium or lead read from the calibration graph, in g/l; V0total volume of extract, in ml; b grammage, in g/m2; f moisture content of the sample, in %; G mass of the sample taken under the same condition as grammage, in g. NOTE 1 The extractable cadmium,
45、lead content of the original paper or board may be calculated if data are available. NOTE 2 Trace element determinations are sensitive to a number of sources of error. It is, therefore, recommended to check the performance of the system by running standard reference materials. Standard reference sol
46、utions are commercially available. Special attention should be paid to factors such as high blank levels caused by impure reagents or modifiers, contamination during handling of the solutions, adsorption on the walls of vessels, inadequate background correction or unmatched acid concentrations of sa
47、mple and calibration solutions. The detection limit should be established by measuring a sufficient number of blanks to allow calculation of the standard deviation of the blank. The detection limit is determined as three times this standard deviation. 9 Precision From an interlaboratory test (n = 8)
48、 with two samples of a water extract with a known amount of added cadmium and lead the test method described above gave the overall standard deviation as shown in Table 1.
