0.9% Saline Test Liquid for Superabsorbent and Incontinence Product Testing BZ592
Product Code: BZ592
Manufacturer: Biochemazone
Available Pack Sizes: 1 L, 5 L, 10 L, 20 L
Custom Bulk Quantities Available
Product Overview
Biochemazone 0.9% Saline Test Liquid BZ592 is the 0.9% (w/w) sodium chloride solution used as the test liquid for superabsorbent polymers and urine-absorbing aids. It is the liquid used in the ISO 17190 series (polyacrylate superabsorbent powders for urine-absorbing aids – free swell capacity, centrifuge retention capacity, absorption under pressure) and for whole-product absorption testing of incontinence products to ISO 11948-1.
Absorption results depend strongly on salt concentration and water quality, so each batch is prepared gravimetrically with ISO 3696 compliant high-purity water and checked for conductivity and density before release. The solution is unbuffered with a pH of about 6.0–7.0, and it is supplied in bulk sizes because superabsorbent laboratories use litres every day.
For strike-through and wetback testing of nonwovens, which need a controlled surface tension, see our Simulated Urine for Nonwoven and Diaper Testing.
