Migration of photoinitiators, phthalates and plasticizers from paper
For example, Jung and coworkers found high concentrations of BP in instant milk powder beverages from printed paper bag (50.2 mg/kg) (Jung et al., 2013), whereas Cai and coworkers found the highest migration rates for BP into milk powder after 8 days contact with paper food packaging at 0 °C (Cai et al., 2017).
Analysis of phthalate plasticizer migration from PVDC packaging
Plasticizers are chemical products that are added to polymers to improve the processability, extensibility, and durability, etc. Due to small molecular weights of plasticizers, they are easy to migrate from the packaging materials into food, especially under certain conditions, such as high temperature, long heating time etc (Bonini et al., 2008, De Coenselet et al., 2009).
Study of the Migration of Stabilizer and Plasticizer from Polyethylene
Migration investigations (kinetic measurements) were carried out at various specific times until migration equilibrium. For nonfatty food simulants [distilled water, acetic acid 3% (w/v), ethanol 20% (v/v) and ethanol 50% (v/v)], an aliquot (1.0 mL) of simulant was taken from the vial, cooled to room temperature and analyzed directly.
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
Study of the Migration of Stabilizer and Plasticizer from Polyethylene
This study investigates the determination and migration of stabilizers and plasticizers from polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Two methods [ultrasonic extraction with dichloromethane or methanol and total dissolution with phenol/tetrachloroethane (m:m/1:1)] for pre-concentration of additives in PET
- 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
- 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 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 ...
- 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.
- Do photoinitiators migrate in food packaging?
- A review on migration of photoinitiators in food packaging has been reported, indicating the main factors affecting the migration ( Aparicio & Elizalde, 2015 ).
- Why are plasticizers used in food packaging?
- Plasticizers are often utilized in food packaging as they improve the durability and flexibility of plastics . Moreover, these chemical compounds are included in materials such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC) to enhance their processing and handling properties.
