Introduction
This document deals with the determination of the content of organic substances in construction
products.
Following an extended evaluation of available methods for content and eluate analysis in construction
products (CEN/TR 16045) it was concluded that existing methods for determining content of various
organic substances in soil, sludge and waste are applicable to construction products. The present
document therefore contains reference to such other standards for the substances of interest.
In the growing amount of product- and sector-oriented test methods it was recognized that many steps
in test procedures are or could be used in test procedures for many products, materials and sectors. It
was supposed that, by careful determination of these steps and selection of specific questions within
these steps, elements of the test procedure could be described in a way that can be used for all materials
and products or for all materials and products with certain specifications.
In this context a horizontal modular approach was adopted in CEN/TC 351. “Horizontal” means that the
methods can be used for a wide range of materials and products with certain properties. “Modular”
means that a test standard developed in this approach concerns a specific step in assessing a property
and not the whole “chain of measurement” (from sampling to analyses). A beneficial feature of this
approach is that “modules” can be replaced by better ones without jeopardizing the standard “chain”.
The modules that relate to the standards developed in CEN/TC 351 are specified in CEN/TR 16220,
which distinguishes between the modules. This document belongs to the analytical step.
The use of modular horizontal standards implies the drawing of test schemes as well. Before executing
a test on a certain material or product to determine certain characteristics it is recommended to draw
up a protocol in which the adequate modules are selected and together form the basis for the entire test
procedure.
Further guidance on the applicability of specific test methods can be found in CEN/TR 16496.
NOTE In Annex B (informative) several methods are mentioned which are, to the current knowledge of
CEN/TC 351/WG 5 members, national standards or in the process of standardization (at European or national
level).
1 Scope
This document specifies analytical methods for the determination of the content of specific organic
substances in construction products.
The following parameters are covered: BTEX, biocides, dioxins, furans and dioxin-like PCBs, mineral oil,
nonylphenols, PAH, PCB, PCP, PBDE, and short-chain chlorinated paraffins.
NOTE 1 Methods still under development or available at national level only are listed in Annex B (informative)

NOTE 2 Methods that have not been validated for construction products, because no suitable material was
available at the time of the robustness validation, only are listed in Annex B (informative). This applies to organotin
compounds, phenols and phthalates.
The methods listed in this document come from different fields and are expected to be suitable for
organic substances in organic extracts from all types of constructions products.
The methods in this document are validated for the product types listed in Annex A (informative).
NOTE 3 Construction products include, e.g. mineral-based products (S), bituminous products (B), wood-based
products (W), plastic and rubbers (P), sealants and adhesives (A), paints and coatings (C) and metals (M) (see also
