Scope

This document specifies a laboratory test method for determination of the aerobic biodegradability of textile materials in seawater by measuring the biochemical oxygen demand or the amount of evolved carbon dioxide. This method performs a test under an aerobic condition, which is intended to replicate the sea surface area conditions. This method applies to textile materials, such as staple fibres, tops, yarns and fabrics. This test method is not intended to evaluate anaerobic biodegradation of textile materials, as simulating deep sea environments is out of the scope of this document.
