scope:
This International Standard specifies a method for the determination of traces of cadmium in all types of paper, board and pulp, including products containing recycled fibre, that can be wet-combusted in nitric acid as specified in this International Standard.
The lower limit of the determination depends on the equipment used and is normally about 10 μg/kg. Cadmium present in pigments and fillers that do not dissolve in nitric acid under the conditions of this test may not be determined quantitatively.
NOTE It has been claimed that the dissolution of cadmium from pigments other than calcium carbonate is incomplete by a few percent.
