Materials and articles in contact with foodstuffs - Polymeric coatings on paper and board- Guide to the selection of conditions and test methods for overall migration

Scope

This Technical Specification specifies test methods for 'alternative tests' and 'substitute tests' performed with volatile test media, iso-octane and a volume fraction of 95 % aqueous ethanol, for the determination of overall migration from polymeric coatings on paper and board intended to come into contact with fatty foodstuffs.
NOTE 1 It also includes guidance for the application of Council Directive 82/711/EEC [1], as last amended by Commission Directives 93/8/EC and 97/48/EC [2] [3] as regards the determination of the specific and overall migration into fatty food simulants (fat test) and includes a glossary to clarify the terminology used, see annex B.
NOTE 2 The iso-octane and a volume fraction of 95 % aqueous ethanol volatile test media used in these test methods are those specified for 'substitute tests' in Council Directive 82/711/EEC and its subsequent amendments. In addition to the use of iso-octane and 95 % v/v aqueous ethanol as test media for 'substitute tests', Council Directive 82/711/EEC and its subsequent amendments specifies the use of modified polyphenylene oxide as a test medium for use at temperatures of 100 °C and above. A test method for overall migration from polymeric coatings intended to come into contact with fatty foodstuffs using modified polyphenylene oxide (MPPO) is in preparation.
