    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Describes a procedure to evaluate the passive behaviour of stainless steels used in construction products intended to come into contact with drinking water.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This European Standard specifies a procedure to evaluate the passive behaviour of stainless steels used in construction products intended to come into contact with drinking water.

    The passive state of stainless steels is the reason why no relevant amounts of metals are released from these materials into the drinking water. This test is used to verify whether the stainless steel under consideration is passive under conditions which can occur in drinking waters.
