Scope: This method provides for the accelerated laboratory
evaluation of the leachability of waterborne wood
preservatives expressed as a percentage of the original
preservative retention. The small specimen size and high
proportion of end-grain greatly accelerates leaching. Data
derived using this method may be useful for estimating the
long-term efficacy of preservative systems. This data is not
intended to, nor shall it be used to predict potential
environmental impacts of treated wood in service. This
method is designed with waterborne preservatives in mind and
may not be applicable to other types of preservatives. This
test method is intended to provide information for
standardization of protection treatments. It may also be useful
as a screening test.
