  • Does Esbo migrate from PVC/PVDC cling film?
  • The aim of this study was to investigate the migration of ESBO from PVC/PVDC cling film, based on gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The specific migration of ESBO was evaluated using various food simulants (water, 4% acetic acid, 50% ethanol and n-heptane) for PVC and PVDC wrap products.
  • Can Esbo be released from PVC/PVDC wrap into oily food?
  • These results demonstrated that ESBO could be released from PVC/ PVDC wrap into oily food. Therefore, ESBO-contained PVC/ PVDC wrap should be used with caution, particularly in direct contact with heated high-fat food. In addition, regular moni-toring of ESBO migration from PVC/PVDC wrap products should be necessary to ensure food safety.
  • Can Esbo be used for PVC stabilization in commercial lids?
  • An evaluation of the use of ESBO for PVC stabilization in commercial lids was carried out by using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). ESBO was detected in all materials and their thermal stability was highly dependent on the plasticizer concentration.
  • Does Esbo migrate from PVC/PVDC wrap to food simulants?
  • The potential migration of ESBO from PVC/PVDC wrap into various food simulants under different conditions was evaluated based on gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Different brands or types of stretching food-grade PVC wrap were collected. A total of 13 PVC wraps and 1 PVDC wrap were purchased from on-line or off-line markets in Korea.
  • Can Esbo be used as a primary plasticizer for PVC plastisols?
  • ESBO is usually mixed with co-plasticizers, which could be a reasonable practice used by industry in order to fulfil the specific migration limits of each plasticizer. However, since ESBO was seen to play a role in thermal stability of PVC itcould be a good alternative as a primary plasticizer and/or stabilizer for PVC plastisols.
  • Does Esbo reduce thermal degradation of PVC?
  • Therefore, it could be concluded that thethermal degradation of PVC is clearly limited by the addition of ESBO at amounts higher than 1–2 wt%, and especially if ESBO concentrations are in the range of values used for plasticizers (30–40 wt%).
