- WARNING. This standard calls for the use of substances and/or procedures that may be injurious to health if adequate precaution are not taken. It refers only to technical suitability and does not absolve the user from legal obligations relating to health and safety at any stage. It has been assumed in the drafting of this standard that the execution of its provisions is entrusted to appropriately qualified and experienced people. This standard specifies a method for determining the amount of formaldehyde released under the conditions of accelerated storage from textiles in any form by means of a vapour absorption method. The procedure is intended for use in the range of releasable formaldehyde on the fabric between 20 mg/kg and 3500 mg/kg when determined by this method. The lower limit is 20 mg. Below this limit the result is reported as ‘not-detectable’. A method for determination of free formaldehyde and formaldehyde extracted partly through hydrolysis in aqueous solution is given in ISO 14184-1.
