This standard is developed in accordance with the rules given in GB/T 1.1-2009.
This standard was proposed by China National Light Industry Council.
This national standard is under the jurisdiction of National Technical Committee on Surfactant Soap and Detergent of Standardization Administration of China (SAC/TC 272).
Hand cleaner
1 Scope
This standard specifies the product classification and labeling, requirements, test methods, inspection rules and marking, packaging, transportation and storage of hand cleaner.
This standard applies to the products for hand cleaning whose effective constituent is surface active agent.
This standard is not applicable to non-water-washable products.

3 Product Classification and Labeling
3.1 Product classification
Hand cleaner products are classified into ordinary type and concentrated type.
3.2 Product labeling
See Table 1 for product labeling method.
Table 1 Product Labeling Method
Type Ordinary Concentrated
Labeling GB/T 34855-2017 GB/T 34855-2017 (Concentrated)
Note: The standard year number may be omitted in the label. If the implementation year number is not marked, the current effective standard shall be implemented. As for products implementing other standards, the labeling shall be carried out according to the executive standard. Products that are described as possessing concentration characteristics in the name or directions for use are concentrated type (such as being described by concentrated, highly-concentrated, high concentration, enriched, etc.), otherwise they are ordinary type.
4 Requirements
4.1 Requirements on raw materials
The raw materials adopted shall meet the relevant requirements for Class B products in GB/T 26396-2011.
4.2 Sensory, physical and chemical indexes
Sensory, physical and chemical indexes of hand cleaner shall meet the requirements of Table 2.
Table 2 Sensory, Physical and Chemical Indexes
Item Ordinary Concentrated
Sensory indexes Appearance Uniform product without layering, no obvious suspended substance (except added product with uniform suspension particulate fraction) or deposit, and no obvious mechanical impurities
Odor Free from odor
Physical and chemical indexes Stabilitya Heat resistance: (40±2)℃, 24 h Without layering, sediment, odor and change of color after recovering to the room temperature, transparent
Cold resistance: (-5±2)℃, 24 h Without layering, sediment, odor and change of color after recovering to the room temperature, transparent
Total effective matter/％≥ 7 14
pHb(25℃) 4.0~10.0
Formaldehyde/(mg/kg)≤ 500
a Stability is only required for liquid or paste products, after recovering the room temperature, the products shall have no obvious change comparing to that before test.
b The tested pH is 1:10 (mass ratio).
4.3 Sanitation requirements
The limit requirements for the microbiological index (total bacterial count, total molds and yeasts count, thermotolerant coliform bacteria, staphylococcus aureus and pseudomonas aeruginosa) and harmful substances (mercury, lead, arsenic, cadmium, methanol and dioxane) shall meet the requirements of Safety and Technical Standards for Cosmetics (Edition 2015).
5 Test Method
Unless otherwise specified, during the analysis, only the recognized analytical reagent and the water at Level 3 or above as specified in GB/T 668 shall be used.
5.1 Appearance
Measure, not less than 200mL, test sample and transfer into a dry, clean and colorless wild-mouth glass bottle (with stopper), observe it under non-direct light.
5.2 Odor
Take proper amount of test sample and identify it by olfactory.
5.3 Stability
Measure, not less than 100mL, two portions of test sample and transfer into 250mL wild-mouth glass bottle (with stopper) respectively, one placed into (40±2)℃ insulation can for 24h, and then compare it with the sample without testing after it recovers to room temperature; another placed into (-5±2)℃ refrigerator for 24h, and then compare it with the sample without testing after it recovers to room temperature;
