Mathematical modelling of plasticizer migration and accompanying
Coincidentally, plasticizers inevitably migrate from starch-based materials into food, and strategies have already been taken to decrease and inhibit the migration. For example, starch modification such as esterification with high degree of substitution (DS = 2.49) restricted the water uptake and further impeded the migration of plasticizer ( Zhu et al., 2014 ).

Plasticizer migration from polyvinyl chloride film to solvents and foods
In food packages, a plasticizer has the potential to migrate from the wrap into food and thereby become an indirect food additive. Because of this, the US FDA regulates which plasticizers may be used in food wraps and sets the limits for their allowable migration.

Around one quarter of all samples was non-compliant, either because non-authorized plasticizers were used or because plasticizer levels exceeded the specific migration limits. Legal limits for different phthalates in food contact material plastics (plastic layer in direct contact with food) as listed in EU 2011/10 *fatty foods in Annex V: no testing requirements for simulants D1 or D2
Plasticizer Migration: Ensuring Safety in Food Packaging
Plasticizer Migration: Ensuring Safety in Food Packaging New plasticizer technologies allow formulators to achieve performance requirements while meeting best practices for food safety and migration By William Arendt, Marianne M. Conner, Emily McBride
- Do plasticizers migrate into acidic foodstuffs?
- Thus, it has been demonstrated that a contact for prolonged time up to 40 °C did not promote the migration of plasticizers into acidic foodstuffs, but the migration of plasticizers to fatty foods can be high (75%–90% loss of plasticizers) and limit the use of PVC films as fatty food packaging. 1. Introduction
- Is chemical migration from polyethylene food packaging systematically addressed across the lifecycle?
- In a review study published on April 18, 2023, chemical migration from polyethylene (PE) food packaging was systematically addressed across the whole lifecycle.
- Do packaging polymers migrate to food?
- Regulations and Legislation in Migration 9. Conclusions and Outlook The migration of chemical compounds from packaging polymers to food presents a multifaceted challenge with implications for food safety and public health. This review explores the interaction between packaging materials and food products, focusing ...
- Can plasticizers migrate from packaging to food?
- Plasticizers can migrate from packaging materials into food, particularly when exposed to high temperatures or extended periods of storage, posing vital risks to health .
- Do plasticizers migrate into food simulants?
- In addition, commercial films have been evaluated as to plasticizers concentration and specific migration into food simulants. It was found that 25% of the samples comply with the specific migration limits for fatty foods contact while 50% might be used for contact with fatty foods with FRF 2–5.
- Why do chemicals migrate from food packaging into food products?
- The migration of chemicals from food packaging into food products is influenced by various physical and chemical factors. One key factor is temperature; higher temperatures can increase the rate of migration by enhancing the diffusion of chemicals from the packaging material into the food.
