Scope

GB/T 35595-2025 is the English-translated version of 玻璃容器 砷、锑溶出量的测定方法.

GB/T 35595-2025 is the Chinese national standard covering how much arsenic and antimony a glass container gives up to what is stored in it — the pretreatment, the preparation of the leachate, and five ways of measuring what comes out: spectrophotometry, atomic absorption, atomic fluorescence, ICP atomic emission and ICP mass spectrometry, with the bracketing technique for reading against adjacent standards, and the annex that computes the exposed surface area on which the result is reported. The 2017 edition offered one measurement route; four instrumental ones have been added beside it. It replaces GB/T 35595-2017, under the China National Light Industry Council. In force from 1 March 2026. Issued on 29 August 2025, it has been in force since 1 March 2026, replacing GB/T 35595-2017.

Foreword

This document complies with the provisions of GB/T 1.1-2020 "Standardization Work Guidelines Part 1: Structure and Drafting Rules of Standardization Documents". Drafting.

This document supersedes GB/T 35595-2017 "Determination of Arsenic and Antimony Leaching from Glass Containers" and is consistent with GB/T 35595-2017.

Aside from structural adjustments and editorial changes, the main technical changes are as follows.

— Terminology and definitions have been changed (see Chapter 3, Chapter 3 of the 2017 edition);

— The principles have been removed (see Chapter 4 of the 2017 edition);

— The reagents have been changed (see Chapter 4, Chapter 5 in the 2017 edition);

— The instruments, equipment, and tools have been changed (see Chapter 5, Chapter 7 of the 2017 edition);

— Sampling requirements have been changed (see Chapter 6, Chapter 8 in the 2017 edition);

— The extraction process has been modified (see Chapter 7, 9.1 of the 2017 edition);

— The principles of different determination methods have been modified (see 8.1.1, 8.2.1, 8.3.1, 8.4.1, 8.5.1, Chapter 4 of the 2017 edition);

— Atomic absorption spectrometry (Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry) has been added (see 8.2);

— Atomic fluorescence spectrometry has been added (see 8.3);
