General information

Current stage: 20.00 New project registered in TC/SC work programme Dec 4, 2025

Originator: ISO

Type: International Standard

Scope

This document specifies the test method to determine the capillarity of cylindrical cork stoppers. It consists in measuring the capillary rise by dipping in a hydro-alcoholic solution containing a dye. Two methods using the same procedure but different concentrations of hydro-alcoholic solutions are described.
It is applicable to all types of cylindrical cork stoppers, ready for use.
