Dutch term or phrase: rest na verbranding
Any scientifically minded bods out there who know what the term for 'rest na verbranding' is? I've come across the phrase 'loss on ignition' but can't find out if they're the same. Occurs in a product description of calcium carbonate 5 (= calciumcarbonaat van speciale kwaliteit: een zeer zuivere vorm van krijt) under 'Chemische analyse':

- pH
- CaCO3
- vochtgehalte
- rest na verbranding (= 56.2%)
- MgO
- SiO2
- zware metalen totaal
- Pb
- arsenicum

I'm not sure combustion is the right term here, as we're talking about calcium carbonate, not fuel. Happy to use 'incineration residues' or 'residues after incineration'. Thanks!
