scope:
This International Standard describes the quality control sampling plans for the receipt and shipping of ready-to-use, cylindrical stoppers (flush with cork mouth finish) in semi-worked or finished cork used for still wines.
These plans do not apply to controls made during production.
This sampling plan applies to the following parameters, for which a standardized analysis method is available. These are the parameters which are applicable to:
- physical tests: dimensions, mass, and apparent density for agglomerate cork stoppers, moisture content, dimensional recovery after compression, extraction force, liquid tightness, and dust content [see ISO 9727 (all parts)];
- chemical tests: analysis of oxidizing residues (see ISO 21128);
- microbiological tests: enumeration of colony-forming units of years, moulds, and bacteria capable of growth in an alcoholic medium (see ISO 10718);
- sensory analysis (see ISO 22308);
- the analysis of releasable 2,4,6-trichloronisol
Type tests and validation tests are not included in this International Standard (for example global migration).
