Global migration from plastic materials into olive oil and isooctane: an experimental comparison
Abstract:
Global migration from several plastics (phthalate-plasticized PVC, polyurethane, polyether-polyamide copolymer and silicone rubber) into olive oil, used as a liquid simulant for fatty foods, was compared with global migration into isooctane, which has been proposed as a new fatty-food simulant. The results showed that the isooctane test (involving contact for 2 hr at 40 degrees C) is not suitable as a substitute for the olive oil test (contact for 10 days at 40 degrees C) for some types of commercial plastic materials.
