NBN EN 1186-8:2002

This part of this European Prestandard describes a method of test for the determination of the overall migration from one surface only of plastics in the form of finished articles, which are intended to come into contact with a fatty foodstuff, by filling the finished article with olive oil and leaving for 10 days, 24 h or 2 h at 40 °C or for 2 h at 70 °C. Testing samples by this method enables testing of non-homogeneous articles providing that they are not too large. This method is most suitable for plastics in the form of containers and articles that can be filled.
