This document specifies a method of sampling for the determination of moisture content of packed cork, either virgin cork, raw reproduction cork, burnt cork, boiled reproduction cork and raw cork waste.

This document specifies a sampling method for the determination of moisture content of granulated cork, broken cork and crushed cork.

This document specifies a method for determination of the moisture content of packed cork, either virgin cork, raw reproduction cork, burnt cork, boiled reproduction cork and raw cork waste.

This European Standard specifies the requirements for cork floor coverings made from agglomerated composition cork supplied in tile form which are designed to be used with a factory finish and/or an insitu finish. Cork floor coverings can be covered with other complementary layers of decorative materials, e.g. decorative cork or wood veneers, with or without applied colours. This European Standard includes a classification system based on intensity of use which shows where cork floor tiles shoul...view more

This document specifies the classification and properties of granulated cork and cork powder before pressing, as well as the methods of packing.

This document specifies a test method to measure the global migration of cork stoppers. It is applicable to all types of cork stoppers that are ready to use, simulating the real conditions of use. This includes all kind of cork stoppers (completely or partially inserted in the bottle neck). A bottle with an adequate finish is used to carry out the test.

This document specifies a method to obtain granule size distribution of granulated cork by mechanical sieving.

ISO 1216:2017 defines when boiled reproduction cork is considered to be commercially dry. In addition, it classifies the different possibilities of grading boiled reproduction cork in terms of thickness, specifies its visual classification, packing and marking and defines the acceptable loss in transit.

ISO 4709 gives a classification system for composition cork intended to be used as gaskets in the mechanical industry. It provides a means for specifying or describing the relevant properties. Since not all properties that contribute to gasket performance are included, the use of this system is limited to the selection of materials in accordance with specified requirements.

ISO 4708:2017 specifies test methods to determine the characteristics of agglomerated composition cork and rubbercork to be used as gaskets in the mechanical industry. The following characteristics are considered: - thickness, - apparent density, - tensile strength, - compressibility and recovery, - flexibility, - resistance to boiling water, - behaviour in fluids.

ISO 3869:2017 specifies the characteristics of composition cork intended to be used as expansion joint filler between concrete elements or other construction products.

ISO 3867:2017 specifies test methods to determine the following characteristics of the composition cork intended to be used as a joint filler of expansion joints of concrete or other construction materials: - apparent density; - expansion in water; - compression; - recovery; - extrusion; - water absorption. These test methods apply to agglomerated cork joint filler with a nominal thickness ranging from 6,3 mm to 25 mm.

ISO 2190:2016 specifies the reference method for determination of the moisture content of granulated cork.

ISO 10718:2015 specifies a method to enumerate the colony-forming units of yeasts, moulds and bacteria which can exist on cork stoppers and in an alcoholic solution, and which, under certain conditions, can be extracted during the 3 months following delivery. ISO 10718:2015 applies to all types of ready-to-use cork stoppers, submitted to a sanitation process and packaged in properly aseptic and hermetic conditions. ISO 10718:2015 specifies the limit values of the colony-forming units of yeasts, ...view more

ISO 2031:2015 specifies a method of determining the apparent bulk density of granulated cork, as defined in ISO 633.

ISO 1215:2015 applies to commercially dry virgin cork, raw reproduction cork, ramassage, gleanings, burnt cork, corkwaste, boiled cork pieces, and boiled corkwaste and specifies the conditions of packaging for each type.

ISO 7322:2014 specifies test methods for the determination of the following characteristics of composition cork: thickness, apparent density, tensile strength, compressibility and recovery, resistance to boiling water. ISO 7322:2014 is applicable to the product in sheet or roll form.

ISO 20752:2014 specifies a test method to determine releasable 2,4,6-trichloroanisol (TCA) from cork stoppers. It is applicable to all types of cork stoppers and all their cork constituents.

ISO 16420:2013 defines, for each type of ready-to-use, cylindrical cork stopper for still wines (colmated or non-colmated natural cork stoppers, agglomerate cork stoppers, 1 + 1 stoppers), a set of specifications corresponding to different tested parameters. For all parameters, this set of specifications comprises a proposal for the number of stoppers to be tested (incremental sample); an acceptable quality level and, for certain parameters: nominal value or values; specification limits (or "tol...view more
