Overview

EN 15075:2013 is the CEN European Standard that specifies the characteristics, purity requirements and test methods for sodium hydrogen carbonate (sodium bicarbonate, NaHCO3) when used directly or as an ingredient in commercial formulations for treating swimming pool water. The Standard defines identification data (CAS 144-55-8, EINECS 205-633-8, formula NaHCO3, Mr 84.01), commercial forms, key physical and chemical properties, and includes guidance on labelling, transportation and storage.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Identification & properties: chemical name, synonyms, empirical/chemical formula, relative molecular mass; appearance as a white powder or crystals, slightly hygroscopic; density 2.2 g/cm3 (bulk 0.5–1.1 kg/dm3); solubility 95 g/L at 20 °C; decomposes at 50 °C.
  • Purity and composition: commercial product must contain ≥ 98.5% NaHCO3 (mass fraction).
  • Impurities limits (expressed mg/kg of NaHCO3):
    • Iron (Fe(II)): max 5
    • Insoluble matter: max 200
  • Trace metal limits (mg/kg of NaHCO3):
    • Arsenic (As): max 2
    • Cadmium (Cd): max 2
    • Chromium (Cr): max 2
    • Mercury (Hg): max 0.1
    • Nickel (Ni): max 2
    • Lead (Pb): max 2
  • Test methods: sampling and analytical procedures are given by the normative reference EN 898.
  • Labelling & transport: not classified as a dangerous substance for transport (no UN number at publication); labelling should include product name, grade/trade name, net mass, supplier details and a statement of conformity with EN 15075.
  • Storage & handling: stable up to 50 °C in dry conditions; keep dry, tightly closed and away from acids (reacts with acids releasing CO2).

Applications and users

  • Primary use: pH and alkalinity adjustment in swimming pool water; can be used directly or to prepare commercial pool-treatment formulations.
  • Typical users: pool operators, water treatment chemical manufacturers, quality control laboratories, procurement/specification teams, national regulatory bodies and standards implementers.
  • Practical value: helps ensure consistent product quality, predictable dosing behavior and safe handling/storage; supports regulatory compliance and consumer safety in pool water chemistry.

Related standards

  • EN 898 (referenced for sampling and analytical methods)
  • Note: EN 15075:2013 supersedes EN 15075:2006. Users should verify national regulations and approvals - conformity with this European Standard does not by itself guarantee national acceptance or use restrictions.

Keywords: EN 15075:2013, sodium hydrogen carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, pool water treatment, purity criteria, test methods, storage and handling.
