This document is applicable to liming materials, which contain oxides, hydroxides, carbonates or silicates of the nutrients calcium (Ca) or magnesium (Mg) and the function of which is to correct soil acidity. It is applicable to fertilizing products, which are classified as PFC 2 or the PFC 2 component in PFC 7 of Regulation (EU) 2019/1009 [3]. NOTE – The methods referred to in this document have not been tested for fertilizing product blends (PFC 7) [3]. This document specifies references to the methods for the determination of the following physical and chemical properties and specific contaminants in liming materials: - Determination of the cadmium content; - Determination of the chromium VI content; - Determination of the mercury content; - Determination of the nickel content; - Determination of the lead content; - Determination of the arsenic content; - Determination of the total chromium content; - Determination of neutralizing value; - Determination of the reactivity; - Determination of the grain size/granulometry; - Determination of the total CaO content; - Determination of the total MgO content. This document does not specify references to the methods for the determination of the following physical and chemical properties and specific contaminants in liming materials, as they are covered in other European Standards: - Determination of the copper and zinc content; - Determination of the chloride content; - Determination of quantity (indicated by mass or volume); - Determination of the phosphonates content.
