Soil quality — Determination of effective cation exchange capacity and base saturation level using barium chloride solution

Qualité du sol — Détermination de la capacité d'échange cationique et du taux de saturation en bases échangeables à l'aide d'une solution de chlorure de baryum

Abstract / scope

This document specifies a method for the determination of the cation exchange capacity (CEC) at the pH of the soil and for the determination of the content of exchangeable sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium in soil.

This document is applicable to all types of air-dried soil samples. ISO 11464 can be used for pre-treatment.
