Relationship of this European Standard with Council Directive 89/109/EECand Commission Directive 90/128/EEC and associated Directives.29Bibliography.31SIST EN 1186-8:2002

Further Directives andamendments to existing Directives are expected which could change the legislative requirements which thisstandard supports.
It is therefore strongly recommended that users of this standard refer to the latest relevantpublished Directive(s) before commencement of any of the test or tests described in this standard.EN 1186-8 should be read in conjunction with EN 1186-1.Their titles are as follows:EN 1186 Materials and articles in contact with foodstuffs – Plastics -Part 1Guide to the selection of conditions and test methods for overall migrationPart 2Test methods for overall migration into olive oil by total immersionPart 3Test methods for overall migration into aqueous food simulants by total immersionPart 4Test methods for overall migration into olive oil by cellPart 5Test methods for overall migration into aqueous food simulants by cellPart 6Test methods for overall migration into olive oil using a pouchPart 7Test methods for overall migration into aqueous food simulants using a pouchPart 9Test methods for overall migration into aqueous food simulants by article fillingPart 10Test methods for overall migration into olive oil (modified method for use in cases whereincomplete extraction of olive oil occurs)Part 11Test methods for overall migration into mixtures of
14C-labelled synthetic triglyceridePart 12Test methods for overall migration at low temperaturesPart 13Test methods for overall migration at high temperaturesSIST EN 1186-8:2002

The test method can also be usedwith appropriate modifications with 'other fatty food simulants ' called simulant D - a synthetic mixture of triglycerides, sunfloweroil and corn oil.
These other fatty food simulants will produce different chromatograms for the simulant methyl esters to those ofthe methyl esters of olive oil.
Select suitable chromatogram peaks of the methyl esters of the other fatty food simulants for thequantitative determination of the simulant extracted from the test specimens.The test method described is applicable to most types of plastics, although there are some plastics for which it isknown not to be applicable.2 Normative referencesThis European Standard incorporates by dated and undated reference, provisions from other publications.
Thesenormative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text, and the publications are listed hereafter. Fordated references, subsequent amendments to and revisions of any of these publications apply to this EuropeanStandard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision.
For undated references the latest edition of thepublication referred to applies (including amendments).EN 1186-1:2002, Materials and articles in contact with food – Plastics – Part 1: Guide to the selection of conditionsand test methods for overall migration.ISO 648, Laboratory glassware - One mark pipettes.ISO 4788, Laboratory glassware - Graduated measuring cylinders.3 PrincipleThe overall migration from a sample of the plastics is determined as the loss in mass per unit of surface areaintended to come into contact with foodstuffs.The selection of the conditions of test will be determined by the conditions of use, see clauses 4, 5 and 6 of EN1186-1:2002.Test specimens of known mass are filled with olive oil for the exposure time, at temperatures above 20 °C andbelow 100 °C, then emptied and blotted to remove oil adhering to the surface, and reweighed.The specimens will usually retain absorbed olive oil that is extracted and determined quantitatively by means of gaschromatography after conversion to methyl esters.
Methylation is carried out by reacting a borontrifluoride/methanol complex with fatty acids formed by hydrolysing the oil with potassium hydroxide.
An internalstandard, triheptadecanoin, is added prior to the extraction of the absorbed olive oil from the test specimens.
Thisensures that any active or extractable components of the plastics react with the internal standard, as well as withthe extracted olive oil. The internal standard is also subjected to the hydrolysis and methylation reactions, providingcompensation for any inefficiencies in the hydrolysis and methylation processes.SIST EN 1186-8:2002

If an unacceptable amount of interference is present thensuitability of one of the 'other fatty food simulants' should be examined, see annex A and 9.3 and 9.5 of EN 1186-1:2002.
If aninterference is present which would interfere with the triheptadecanoin internal standard an alternative internal standard shouldbe used, see annex A, and 9.3 of EN 1186-1:2002.4 ReagentsNOTEAll reagents should be of recognized analytical quality, unless otherwise specified.4.1Olive oil, simulant D, as specified in 4.2 of EN 1186-1:2002.4.2Extraction solvent (see 9.1 of prEN 1186-1:2001).4.2.1For non-polar plastics, such as polyethylene and polypropylene:- Pentane 98 % boiling point 36 °C.For polar plastics, such as polyamide and polyacetal:- 95/5 by volume azeotropic mixture of pentane 98 % and ethanol 99 %.NOTE 1Pentane is a very volatile and highly flammable solvent.
Care should therefore be taken when handling this solventto prevent contact with sources of ignition.
Ethanol is also a flammable solvent.
It is not recommended that extractions witheither pentane or the pentane/ethanol mixture be left unattended, particularly overnight.NOTE 2Due to the low boiling points of
these solvents, cooled condenser water can be required to prevent undue loss ofthe solvent from the condenser.or4.2.2Other suitable solvent.NOTE 1
