Materials and articles in contact with foodstuffs - Plastics - Part 14: Test methods for 'substitute tests' for overall migration from plastics intended to come into contact with fatty foodstuffs using test media iso-octane and 95 % ethanol

This European Standard describes test methods for 'substitute tests' performed with volatile test media, iso-octane and 95 % v/v aqueous ethanol, for the determination of overall migration from plastics intended to come into contact with fatty foodstuffs at all temperatures and for any period of time.
These test methods are suitable for plastics samples in a wide variety of forms.
NOTE 1   The iso-octane and 95 % v/v aqueous ethanol volatile test media used in these test methods are those specified for 'substitute tests' in Commission Directive 82/711/EEC [3]and its subsequent amendments [4], [5].  In addition to the use of iso-octane and 95 % v/v aqueous ethanol as test media for 'substitute tests', Commission 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.  For a test method for overall migration from plastics intended to come into contact with fatty foodstuffs using modified polyphenylene oxide as a test medium, see EN 1186-13.  
NOTE 2   These test methods can also be used for the 'alternative tests' described in Council Directive 82/711/EEC and its subsequent amendments, when the chosen volatile test media are iso-octane and 95 % aqueous ethanol, provided equivalence is shown with olive oil, see prEN 1186-1:2001.

Matériaux et objets en contact avec les denrées alimentaires - Matiere plastique - Partie 14 : Méthodes de replacement pour la vérification de la migration globale des matieres plastiques en contact avec des denrées alimentaires grasses dans l'iso-octane et l'éthanol a 95 %

La présente Norme européenne spécifie des méthodes d’essai « de remplacement » réalisées à l’aide de milieux d’essai volatils tels que l’iso-octane et l’éthanol en solution aqueuse à 95 % (v/v) pour la vérification de la migration globale des matières plastiques destinées à entrer en contact avec des denrées alimentaires grasses, à toutes températures et pendant une durée quelconque.
Ces méthodes d’essai conviennent pour des échantillons de plastiques se présentant sous de multiples formes.
NOTE 1   L’iso-octane et l’éthanol en solution aqueuse à 95 % (v/v) utilisés pour les « essais de remplacement » sont les milieux d’essais spécifiés dans la Directive de la Commission 82/711/CEE [3] et ses amendements ultérieurs [4] et [5]. Outre ces milieux, la Directive de la Commission 82/711/CEE et ses amendements ultérieurs prescrivent également l’utilisation d’oxyde de polyphénylène modifié à des températures égales ou supérieures à 100 °C. Voir l’EN 1186-13 pour une méthode d’essai de vérification de la migration globale des matières plastiques destinées à entrer en contact avec les denrées alimentaires grasses à l’aide d’oxyde de polyphénylène modifié.
NOTE 2   Ces méthodes d’essai peuvent également être utilisées pour les « essais de remplacement » décrits dans la Directive du Conseil 82/711/CEE et ses amendements ultérieurs, lorsque les milieux d’essais volatils choisis sont l’iso-octane et l’éthanol à 95 %, à condition de prouver l’équivalence avec l’huile d’olive (voir l’EN 1186-1:2002).

Foreword
This document (prEN 1186-14:2006) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 194 “Utensils in
contact with food”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document.
This document supersedes EN 1186-14:2002.
WARNING — Both iso-octane and ethanol are volatile flammable solvents. Take care to ensure that
the test specimens are well stoppered, closed and covered to prevent solvent volatilizing into the
interior of the oven, incubator or refrigerator and generating an explosive mixture. Care should be
taken at all times when handling these solvents to prevent contact with sources of ignition.
EN 1186-14 should be read in conjunction with EN 1186-1, EN 1186-3, EN 1186-5, EN 1886-7, and EN 1186-
9.

1 Scope
This European Standard specifies test methods for 'substitute tests' performed with volatile test media, iso-
octane and 95 % v/v aqueous ethanol, for the determination of overall migration from plastics intended to
come into contact with fatty foodstuffs at all temperatures and for any period of time.
These test methods are suitable for plastics samples in a wide variety of forms.
NOTE 1 The iso-octane and 95 % v/v aqueous ethanol volatile test media used in these test methods are those
specified for 'substitute tests' in Commission Directive 82/711/EEC [3] and its subsequent amendments [4], [5]. In addition
to the use of iso-octane and 95 % v/v aqueous ethanol as test media for 'substitute tests', Commission 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. For a test method for overall migration from plastics intended to come into contact
with fatty foodstuffs using modified polyphenylene oxide as a test medium, see EN 1186-13.
NOTE 2 These test methods can also be used for the 'alternative tests' described in Council Directive 82/711/EEC and
