This document was prepared by Subcommittee SC1 of TC 194 as one of a series of analytical test methods for plastics materials and articles in contact with foodstuffs. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of
19、an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by November 2004, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by November 2004. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association. This standard is
20、 intended to support Directives 2002/72/EC 1, 89/109/EEC 2, 82/711/EEC 3 and its amendments 93/8/EEC 4 and 97/48/EC 5, and 85/572/EEC 6.

It is therefore strongly recommended that users of this standard refer to the latest relevant published Directi
22、ve(s) before commencement of a test or tests described in this standard. EN 13130-6 should be read in conjunction with EN 13130-1.

33、itzerland and United Kingdom. EN 13130-6:2004 (E) 5 Introduction Vinylidene chloride (1,1-dichloroethylene), H 2 C=CCl 2 , is a monomer used in the manufacture of certain plastics films and coatings intended to come into contact with foodstuffs. During the manufacture of vinylidene chloride polymers
34、 and copolymers, residual vinylidene chloride monomer can remain in the polymer and can migrate into food coming into contact with the polymer. The method described in this European Standard should be used in conjunction with part 1 of this standard, which describes the procedures required prior to
35、the determination of vinylidene chloride. EN 13130-6:2004 (E) 6 1 Scope This part of this European Standard specifies a method for the determination of vinylidene chloride (VdC) in plastics materials and articles. The method is applicable to poly(vinylidene chloride) (PVdC) films, PVdC coated films,
36、 and laminates and coextruded materials containing PVdC. The level of vinylidene chloride determined is expressed as milligrams of vinylidene chloride per kilogram of polymer. The method is appropriate for the quantitative determination of vinylidene chloride at a level of 5 mg/kg in plastics materi
37、als and articles. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text, and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amen
38、dments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies (including amendments). EN 13130-1:2004, Materials and articles in contact with
39、foodstuffs - Plastics substances subject to limitation - Part 1: Guide to test methods for the specific migration of substances from plastics to foods and food simulants and the determination of substances in plastics and the selection of conditions of exposure to food simulants. 3 Principle The lev
40、el of vinylidene chloride in a polymer is determined by headspace gas chromatography with automated sample injection, using either electron capture detection (ECD) or flame ionization detection (FID). As it is not possible to obtain test material free of vinylidene chloride, the method of standard a
41、ddition is employed. Quantification is achieved using 1-chloropropane (1-CP) as an internal standard. Plastics samples are dissolved in N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA) prior to headspace analysis. For samples not soluble in this solvent, e.g. laminates and co-extrusions, determination can be carried out
42、 by the hot jar method in which the polymer alone is heated to release the vinylidene chloride. If interferences are experienced with the internal standard then calibration is carried out by external standardization. If automated headspace sampling cannot be performed then manual injection as descri
43、bed in annex A shall be applied. Confirmation of vinylidene chloride levels is carried out either by combined gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) or by re-analysis on a second GC column of different polarity. 4 Reagents WARNING: All chemicals are hazardous to health to a greater or lesser e
44、xtent. It is beyond the scope of this standard to give instructions for the safe handling of all chemicals, that meet, in full, the legal obligations in all countries in which this standard may be followed. Therefore, specific warnings are not given and users of this standard shall ensure that they

Add to the N,N
48、-dimethylacetamide a quantity of approximately 0,1 ml (0,125 g) vinylidene chloride (4.1) and shake the closed flask.
