Defines a test method to determine the dry matter content of a hot- and cold-water extract from board or paper. The lower limit determination of the method is about 1 000 mg/kg of paper. This corresponds to 1 000 mg/dm2 of a paper with a grammage of 100 g/m2, or 2 000 mg/dm2 for a board with a grammage of 200 g/m2. NOTE:- Some volatile, water-soluble substances may escape during evaporation of the extract and subsequent drying of the residue.

This European Standard specifies a test method for the determination of the dry matter content of a hot- or cold-water extract from paper or board. It is applicable to paper and board intended for boiling or filtering of foodstuffs. The lower limit of determination of the method is about 1000 mg/kg of paper. This corresponds to 1 mg/dm2 of a paper with a grammage of 100 g/m2 or 2 mg/dm2 for a board with a grammage of 200 g/m2.
