4.3.3 Assessment based on test results
4.3.3.1 For performance of migration of any of the heavy metals or specific elements from
wallcoverings in roll form, as listed in Table 2, the following values (both in mg/kg), shall be determined:
a) an analytical value, A, obtained in the test performed in accordance with EN 12149:1997, Clause 4
(Test A), and
b) a corrected value, C, calculated according the following Equation, where B is analytical correction
factor from Table 3 for the corresponding heavy metal or specific element:
C = A – (A × B)/100
EXAMPLE Analytical result for lead (A) is 120 and corresponding analytical correction factor in Table 3 (B) 30 %.
Corrected analytical value, C = 120 – (120 × 30)/100 = 120 – 36 = 84 mg/kg ≤ 90 mg/kg.
This is regarded as satisfying the respective maximum migration requirement, specified in Table 2.
