This document specifies requirements and test methods for evaluation of the permanence and durability of self-adhesive labels intended for labelling of archive boxes (paper board) and other storage materials (such as metal or plastic) stored in libraries, archives, and other protected environments for long periods of time. The labels must retain their adhesion capability, and the permanence of images on them must be equivalent to that of images on permanent paper. It is applicable to: — labels stored in archival conditions (dry, cool, dark and no contact with water) — labels made of permanent paper (ISO 9706) or archival paper (ISO 11108) in combination with acrylate-based adhesive — written or printed images obtained from pens, copying machines and printers that meets the requirements in ISO 11798 — the substrate of intended use (sample substrate used for testing) It does not apply to: — labels stored under harmful conditions, such as high humidity that promotes microbiological attack, excessive heat, radiation (e.g. light), high levels of pollutants, or the risk of water damage (or water contact). — labels with non-permanent paper or other adhesive than acrylate-based — other substrates than intended use

This document is applicable for internally coated cylindrical and conical aluminium tubes, mainly used for the packing of pharmaceutical, cosmetic, hygiene, food or other household products. The internal coating is used as a barrier to avoid any contact between aluminium and the product. This document defines the sodium chloride method to detect the electrolyte conductivity as one criterion for the quality of the internal coating. NOTE The electrolyte conductivity of the internal coating is only one criterion for evaluation of the quality of an internal coating. It does not give any information on the quantity or size of any pores or uncoated areas, nor any hint on possible reactions between the aluminium tube and the product. The electrolyte conductivity can never be used as the sole criterion for quality evaluation of the internal coating, but always with other parameters e.g. film thickness, acetone and/or ammonia resistance and of course results of enhanced stability studies.

This document specifies a method for the determination of the strength of the head welding of flexible laminate and extruded plastic tubes. It is applicable to flexible laminate and extruded plastic tubes packaging applications.

Detta dokument ger en metod för bestämning av:

biologisk nedbrytningsgrad efter anaerob rötning under 30 dagar (mesofil temperatur) eller 23 dagar (termofil temperatur)

maximal biologisk nedbrytningsgrad under anaeroba förhållanden vid mesofil eller termofil temperatur i max 90 dagar

sönderdelningsgrad efter samma provningstider som ovan, vilket är ett mått på den mängd provningsmaterial som antingen brutits ner biologisk eller sönderfallit på annat sätt så att det består av partiklar <2 mm.
