- organic solvent-based wood preservatives ; or
- organic water-dispersible formulations, as supplied or as prepared in the laboratory by dilution of concentrates ; or
- water-soluble products ; or
- chemicals which are being studied as active ingredients for application by superficial processes.
NOTE This method may be used in conjunction with an ageing procedure, for example EN 73.
