Methods of testing cement — Report of a test programme — Chemical analysis by x-ray fluorescence
ISO/TS 12389:2009 describes the results of the inter-laboratory testing of the chemical analysis of cement by x-ray fluorescence. In the first instance, the inter-laboratory testing was carried out in Japan and Asian countries in accordance with JIS R 5204:2002. A total of 30 laboratories, 16 in Japan and 14 outside Japan, participated in the original testing programme. A further 12 European…

Paints and varnishes — Performance requirements for protective paint systems for offshore and relate...
ISO 20340:2009 deals with performance requirements for protective paint systems for offshore and related structures (i.e. those exposed to the offshore environment, as well as those immersed in sea or brackish water). It can also be used for other structures, provided that the paints or protective paint systems selected comply with ISO 20340.
ISO 20340 includes:
the test methods to be used to…
Soil quality — Sampling — Part 6: Guidance on the collection, handling and storage of soil under aer...
ISO 10381-6:2009 provides guidance on the collection, handling and storage of soil for subsequent testing under aerobic conditions in the laboratory. The recommendations in this document are not applicable to the handling of soil where anaerobic conditions are to be maintained throughout.
ISO 10381-6:2009 is mainly applicable to temperate soils. Soils collected from extreme climates (e.g.…
Water quality — Guidance on analytical quality control for chemical and physicochemical water analys...
ISO/TS 13530:2009 provides comprehensive guidance on within‑laboratory and between‑laboratory quality control for ensuring the production of results with a known level of accuracy in the analysis of waters.
ISO/TS 13530:2009 is applicable to the chemical and physicochemical analysis of all types of waters. It is not intended for application to the analysis of sludges and sediments (although many…
Measurement of radioactivity in the environment — Soil — Part 5: Measurement of strontium 90
ISO 18589-5:2009 describes the principles for the measurement of the activity of 90Sr in equilibrium with 90Y and 89Sr, pure beta-emitting radionuclides, in soil samples. Different chemical separation methods are presented to produce strontium and yttrium sources, the activity of which is determined using proportional counter (PC) or liquid scintillation counter (LSC). The selection of the…
