Specifies methods of sampling and determining the sorbency of materials used for the control of liquid spillages.

This part of BS 7959 describes methods of sampling and determining the sorbency of materials used for the control of liquid spillages.

A variety of materials of different composition and format are used in this application and, for the purposes of this standard, the following categories are used.

  • Type I web type sheet, pad or roll.
  • Type II: loose material discrete particles of variable size.
  • Type III: filled products socks, booms, pillows, cushions.
  • Type IV: agglomerates masses of strands for pick-up of viscous liquids.
  • The methods are applicable to sorbent materials of any type.

The standard also includes a test (swell ratio test, Clause 10) that will distinguish between absorbents and adsorbents.
