Practical guidelines on the application of migration modelling for the estimation of specific migration

cover
The aim of this practical guidance document is to assist the users of the described diffusion models to predict conservative, upper bound specific migration values from plastic food contact materials for compliance purposes. Explanatory guidance tables and practical examples of migration modelling are provided. This document is an updated version of the report "Estimation of specific migration by generally recognised diffusion models in support of EU Directive 2002/72/EC" (Simoneau, 2010) concerning the current legal basis (Regulation (EU) No 10/2011) and the use of migration models for the estimation of specific migration from plastic multi-layers. This document represents the current validity of the models based on constant periodical evaluations of new experimental migration data performed by the Task Force on Migration Modelling chaired by the Directorate General Joint Research Centre of the European Commission on behalf of Directorate General Health and Consumers. The members of the Task Force are R. Brandsch, C. Dequatre, E.J. Hoekstra, P. Mercea, M.R. Milana, A. Schäfer, C. Simoneau, A. Störmer, X. Trier and O. Vitrac.
