Specific Migration - Determination of Epoxy Derivatives

Specific migration analysis of plastics and materials in contact with food is generally carried out in two stages.

- The first step in Migration Determination is to expose plastic materials and materials that come into contact with food to foodstuffs or food simulants.
- The second step is the detection of migration in foodstuffs or food simulants.

Epoxy Derivatives in food contact plastic materials and materials tested within the scope of EN 13130-1 standard are as follows.
• BADGE.2H₂O; Bisphenol A bis(2,3-dihydroxypropyl) ether
• BADGE.2HCl; Bisphenol A bis(3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyl) ether
• BADGE.H₂O.HCl; Bisphenol A (3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyl) (2,3-dihydroxypropyl) ether
• BADGE.H₂O; Bisphenol A (2,3-dihydroxypropyl) glycidyl ether
• BADGE.HCl; Bisphenol A (3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyl) glycidyl ether
• BADGE; Bisphenol A diglycidyl ether
• BFDGE; Bis[4-(glycidyloxy)phenyl]methane
• NOGE; Novolac glycidyl ether
