Abstract
Dosage, par chromatographie en phase gazeuse, et confirmation, par spectrometrie de masse, du benzene residuel dans une serie de matieres plastiques destinees a la fabrication d'emballages alimentaires. Les essais de migration a differentes temperatures (temperatures de pasteurisation) indiquent que la teneur en benzene peut atteindre 3,47 ppm

Headspace analysis of benzene in food contact materials and its migration into foods from plastics cookware.

TL;DR: It was established that the benzene originated from the use of t-butyl perbenzoate used as an initiator in the manufacture of the polymer, and was detected in foods when the articles were used for cooking in microwave or conventional ovens.

Determination of benzene residues in recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PETE) by dynamic headspace-gas chromatography.

TL;DR: A dynamic headspace-gas chromatography (HS/GC) method was developed to quantitate benzene in recycled PETE material derived from 21 PETE beverage bottles and calculated results agreed with the experimental recoveries within +/- 10%.

Analytical Measurements of Package Components for Unintentional Migrants

TL;DR: The results of selected studies dealing with the transfer or migration of indirect additives from food contact materials to foodstuffs and/or their appropriate simulants have been reviewed in terms of the polymeric packaging material or packaging article, specific migrant, nature of the contact phase, level of migrant transferred under the conditions of test, and the analytical method employed to monitor com positional changes.
