Overview
ISO/FDIS 25712:2026 specifies an analytical method for determining the total content of melamine in chemicals used in the leather tanning industry. This standard outlines a precise and reliable procedure leveraging liquid chromatography (LC) coupled with detectors such as triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (MS/MS), ultraviolet (UV), or diode array detectors (DAD). Melamine, often present as a residual monomer in melamine-formaldehyde resins used during the retanning stage, poses regulatory concerns due to its classification as a substance of very high concern (SVHC) in the European Union.
The method established by ISO/FDIS 25712 ensures the accurate quantification of melamine to monitor and control chemical formulations in the leather tanning process, promoting safety and compliance with environmental and health regulations.
Key Topics
- Melamine Analysis Method: The procedure involves extraction of melamine from leather tanning chemicals using a 50:50 acetonitrile-water solvent mixture, followed by chromatographic separation.
- Chromatographic Techniques: Two chromatographic approaches are described:
- Hydrophilic Interaction Liquid Chromatography (HILIC) for optimal separation of polar compounds like melamine.
- Reversed-Phase (RP) chromatography using C8 or C18 columns as an accessible alternative.
- Detection Methods:
- LC coupled with triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS)
- LC with ultraviolet (LC-UV) or diode array detector (LC-DAD)
- Sample Preparation: Homogenization and ultrasonic extraction procedures ensure representative and thorough sample processing.
- Calibration and Quantification: Multiple calibration standards and the use of internal standards improve accuracy and reduce matrix effects.
- Precision and Reporting: The document includes detailed guidelines for precision, calculation formulas, and test reporting formats.
Applications
- Leather Tanning Industry: Enables manufacturers and quality control laboratories to assess melamine content in tanning chemicals, ensuring product safety and regulatory compliance.
- Regulatory Compliance: Supports adherence to chemical safety regulations by providing reliable quantitative data on melamine concentrations, essential given its potential carcinogenicity and environmental persistence.
- Environmental and Health Safety: By detecting and quantifying melamine residues, companies can mitigate risks associated with hazardous substances in leather goods.
- Research and Development: Assists chemical formulators in developing safer tanning agents with controlled melamine levels.
Related Standards
- ISO/IEC Directives: Guiding principles for standard development, ensuring consistent documentation and process integrity.
- Standards for Sampling and Testing Leather: Developed by the International Union of Leather Technologists and Chemists Societies (IULTCS), related to leather testing methods.
- European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) Guidelines: Inform classification and restrictions pertaining to melamine and related substances.
- ISO Standards on Chromatographic Methods: Provide complementary methodologies for compound analysis and validation of analytical methods used in chemical testing.

Introduction
This document includes a procedure for analysing melamine in leather tanning chemicals using liquid
chromatography (LC) equipment.
In the leather industry, melamine can be present as a residual monomer in resins based on the polymerisation
of melamine, where melamine-formaldehyde resin is the more typical. This type of resin is present in
chemical products such as melamine-formaldehyde resin or compound products and is used in the retanning
stage of the tanning process.
At present, the official European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) classification recognized in the European Union
(EU) for melamine is the following:
[1]
— substance of very high concern (SVHC) and included in the candidate list for authorisation ;
[2]
— suspected to be Carcinogenic ;
[2]
— under assessment as Persistent, Bioaccumulative and Toxic ;
[2]
— under assessment as Endocrine Disrupting .

This document specifies a method for determining the total content (solvent extractable) of melamine in
chemicals for the leather tanning industry.
This method requires the use of liquid chromatography (LC) with a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer
(MS/MS), an ultraviolet (UV) detector, or diode array detector (DAD) to identify and quantify the melamine.

4 Principle
The chemical sample is extracted in a 50:50 (volume fraction) mixture of acetonitrile and water. Subsequently,
an aliquot of the extract is diluted in the appropriate mobile phase and analysed using LC-MS, LC-MS/MS, or
LC with a UV (LC-UV) or diode array detector (DAD; LC-DAD).
Melamine is a highly polar substance. From a chromatographic perspective, hydrophilic interaction liquid
chromatography (HILIC) provides good separation and quantification of melamine using LC-MS, LC-MS/
MS, LC-UV, and LC-DAD. However, because HILIC-based columns are not widely available in laboratories,
reversed-phase (RP) chromatography using C8 or C18 columns can be a suitable alternative, offering
good separation with LC-MS and LC-MS/MS detection. Therefore, this document describes two alternative
chromatographic approaches: one using a HILIC column and the other using an RP (C18 or C8) column.
NOTE Melamine is water-soluble but has low solubility in organic solvents. Therefore, care is taken to ensure
complete solubilization of melamine during

L'IULTCS, initialement créée en 1897, est une organisation mondiale de sociétés de cuir professionnelles
destinée à faire progresser la science et la technologie du cuir. L'IULTCS a trois Commissions, lesquelles sont
chargées d'établir des méthodes internationales d'échantillonnage et d'essai du cuir. L'ISO reconnaît l'IULTCS
comme un organisme international de normalisation pour la préparation des méthodes d'essai pour le cuir.
Le présent document a été élaboré par la Commission des essais chimiques de l'Union internationale des
sociétés de techniciens et chimistes du cuir (commission IUC, IULTCS), en collaboration avec le comité
technique CEN/TC 289, Cuir, du Comité européen de normalisation (CEN), conformément à l'Accord de
coopération technique entre l'ISO et le CEN (Accord de Vienne).

Introduction
Le présent document comprend une procédure d'analyse de mélamine dans des produits chimiques de
tannage du cuir utilisant un équipement de chromatographie en phase liquide (LC).
Dans l'industrie du cuir, la mélamine peut être présente sous forme de monomère résiduel dans des résines
basées sur la polymérisation de la mélamine, où la résine mélamine-formaldéhyde est la plus typique. Ce
type de résine est présent dans les produits chimiques tels que la résine mélamine-formaldéhyde ou les
produits composés et est utilisé au stade de retannage du procédé de tannage.
Actuellement, la classification officielle de l'Agence européenne des produits chimiques (ECHA) reconnue
dans l'Union européenne (UE) pour la mélamine est la suivante:
[1]
— substance extrêmement préoccupante (SVHC) et incluse dans la liste des candidats à l'autorisation ;
[2]
— suspectée d'être cancérigène ;
[2]
— en cours d'évaluation en tant que produit persistant, bioaccumulatif et toxique ;
[2]
— en cours d'évaluation en tant que perturbateur endocrinien .

Détermination de la teneur totale en mélamine
1 Domaine d’application
Le présent document spécifie une méthode de détermination de la teneur totale (extractible au solvant) de
mélamine dans les produits chimiques pour l'industrie du tannage du cuir.
Cette méthode exige l'utilisation d'une chromatographie en phase liquide (LC) avec un spectromètre de
masse triple quadripoles (MS/MS), un détecteur ultraviolet (UV) ou un détecteur à barrette de diodes (DAD)
pour identifier et quantifier la mélamine.

4 Principe
L'échantillon chimique est extrait dans un mélange de 50:50 (fraction volumique) d'acétonitrile et d'eau. Par
la suite, une aliquote de l'extrait est diluée dans la phase mobile appropriée et analysée à l'aide de LC-MS, LC-
MS/MS ou de LC avec un détecteur UV (LC-UV) ou un détecteur à barrette de diodes (DAD; LC-DAD).
La mélamine est une substance hautement polaire. Du point de vue chromatographique, la chromatographie
à interaction hydrophile (HILIC) fournit une bonne séparation et une bonne quantification de la mélamine
à l'aide de LC-MS, LC-MS/MS, LC-UV et LC-DAD. Cependant, comme les colonnes HILIC sont peu répandues
dans les laboratoires, la chromatographie en phase inverse (RP) utilisant des colonnes C8 ou C18 peut
être une alternative appropriée, offrant une bonne séparation avec une détection LC-MS et LC-MS/MS. Par
conséquent, le présent document décrit deux approches chromatographiques alternatives: l'une utilisant
une colonne HILIC et l'autre utilisant une colonne RP (C18 ou C8).
NOTE La mélamine est soluble dans l'eau, mais présente un
