Abstract / scope
ISO 13897:2018 specifies the requirements for reusable mixing-capsules intended to contain dental amalgam alloy powder and dental mercury when these are mixed to produce dental amalgam, and the test methods used to determine conformity to these requirements.
NOTE ISO 7488 specifies requirements for mixing machines. The requirements for mixing-capsule are not dealt with in ISO 7488, although the mixing-capsule is an essential part of the mixing machine.
