Full Description BS PD CEN/TS 17035:2017 sets requirements for bio-based surfactants in terms of properties, limits, application classes and test methods. It lays down the characteristics and details for assessment of biobased surfactants as to whether they: are fit for purpose in terms of performance related properties; comply with the requirements regarding the health, safety and environment which apply to general surfactants; are derived from a certain minimum percentage of biomass; and comply with at least similar sustainability criteria as comparable (non-bio-based) surfactants. The criteria of the regulation on Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) [11] also apply to bio-based surfactants.
NOTE EN 16575 defines the term \"bio-based\" as derived from biomass and clarifies that \"bio-based\" does not imply \"biodegradable\". In addition, \"biodegradable\" does not necessarily imply the use of \"bio-based\" material.
