Materials and articles in contact with foodstuffs - Plastics - Part 3: Test methods for overall migration into aqueous food simulants by total immersion
This part of this European Prestandard describes a test method for the determination of the overall migration into aqueous based food simulants from plastics which are intended to come into contact with foodstuffs, by total immersion in aqueous food simulant for 10 days, 24 h or 2 h at 40 °C or for 2 h at 70 °C. This method is most suitable for plastics in the form of films and sheets, but can be applied to a wide range of articles or containers from which test pieces of suitable size can be cut.
