Determination of 1, 3-butadiene and Determination of Migration
1 Scope
This standard specifies determination method of 1, 3-butadiene in food contact materials and articles and its migration in such materials and articles.
This standard is applicable to the determination of 1, 3-butadiene in food contact materials and articles and its migration in such materials and articles.
Determination of 1, 3-butadiene
2 Principle
Dissolve or disperse the food contact materials and articles with N, N-dimethyl formamide in a headspace bottle, heat to make the to-be-tested constituent reach gas-liquid equilibrium and then pipet headspace air quantitatively to determine gas chromatography. Carry out the qualitative determination by retention time and quantitative determination by internal standard method with n-pentane as internal standard substance.
3 Reagents and Materials
Class-I water (defined in GB/T 6682) is adopted for the purposes of this method. As for the containers and transferring tools in the test, those made of plastic material shall not be used.

Adjust the gas chromatograph to the optimal working state, place the headspace bottle with standard series into headspace sample injector, take the gas above solution into the gas chromatograph for determination to obtain corresponding chromatographic peaks of n-Pentane and 1, 3-butadiene. Plot the calibration curve with 1,3-butadiene content as the x-axis and the ratio of peak area of 1,3-butadiene to that of n-Pentane the as y-axis.
