BS PD CEN/TS 16660:2015 specifies three laboratory tests to determine the reducing character and the
reducing capacity of construction products, waste materials and the eluate resulting from exposure of these
solids to a leachant. Reducing species released from the product are titrated to quantify the reducing capacity.For a specification of the materials with which experience has been acquired with the execution of the tests
according to this Technical Specification see Annex A and [16].NOTE Materials with reducing properties can in practice under both oxidizing and anoxic (isolated) conditions show
completely different leaching behaviour than obtained with the leaching tests specified in EN 16457. This may seriously
hamper the interpretation of the leaching tests, if this condition is not taken into consideration.Cross References:EN 14346EN 15002EN ISO 10523ISO 10523EN 12457-1EN 12457-2EN 12457-3EN 12457-4EN 12920EN 13965-2CEN/TS 14405EN 14429EN 14899EN 14997EN 15863CEN/TS 15864EN 16457NEN 7348:20061999/31/EC2003/33/ECISO 5725-2All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
