Packaging. Evaluation of the ultimate aerobic biodegradability and disintegration of packaging materials under controlled composting conditions. Method by analysis of released carbon dioxideWhat is BS EN 14046 Biodegradability and disintegration of packaging materials about? A degradable substance doesnt cause long term risks to the environment. Biodegradability is an important parameter for the evaluation of the ecological behaviour of substances. BS EN 14046 specifies a method for the evaluation of the ultimate aerobic biodegradability of packaging materials based on organic compounds under controlled composting conditions by
