Описание (английский):

Liquids simulating fodd and beverages are placed in contact with mouldings of the sample material, under defined conditions. The formaldehyde content of the liquid is then determined and the quantity of formaldehyde extracted per unit area of content is calculated. Two spectrophotometric methods for the determination of formaldehyde in the liquid, using chromotropic acid disodium salt or acetylacetone as reagents, are given.

Overview

ISO 4614:1977 specifies a test method for determining extractable formaldehyde from melamine‑formaldehyde plastics intended for contact with food and beverages. The standard defines an extraction procedure using liquids that simulate food and drink, and two spectrophotometric analytical procedures to quantify formaldehyde in the extract. Results are reported as formaldehyde mass per unit area (µg/cm²).

Key topics and requirements

Scope: Tests melamine‑formaldehyde mouldings intended for food contact to measure migration of formaldehyde into simulant liquids.

Test specimens: Moulded containers (e.g., beakers or cups) with internal surface area 150–250 cm² and capacity 150–250 cm³; surface/volume ratio must be between 0.75 and 1. Six specimens required; determinations done in duplicate with each extraction liquid.

Extraction liquids: Three simulants specified - water, acetic acid (30 g/l), and ethanol (100 g/l).

Extraction procedure: Fill specimen with extraction liquid preheated to 80 °C, cover, let stand 30 min at room temperature, recover extract and cool to 20 ± 0.5 °C before analysis.

Analytical methods (spectrophotometry):

Procedure A (chromotropic acid): Reagent-based colorimetric reaction; measure absorbance at 570 nm. Typical working concentration range 1.0–10.0 µg/ml.
Procedure B (acetylacetone): Hantzsch reaction variant; measure absorbance at 415 nm. Typical working concentration range 0.5–8.0 µg/ml.

Calibration: Prepare formaldehyde working standards and plot absorbance versus concentration; calibration line should be linear and pass through origin.

Result expression: Convert measured concentration (µg/ml) to extracted mass per area (µg/cm²) using the measured extract concentration, dilution factor, total extraction volume and specimen contact area.

Practical applications and users

Manufacturers of melamine‑formaldehyde tableware, cookware, and food-contact components for routine QC and product release testing.

Independent analytical laboratories performing migration and compliance testing.

Regulatory authorities and certification bodies assessing safety of food contact plastics.

R&D teams optimizing resin formulations and cure conditions to minimize extractable formaldehyde.
