19、d specifies the determination of formaldehyde in aqueous extracts prepared from paper and board intended to come nt0 contact with foodstuffs. The limit of determination is 1 mgkg. This means that for a paper with a grammage of 100 urn2 the limit of determination will be 0,001 mg/drn2. For contact at

20、 room temperature the cold water extract is applied. For paper and board materials intended for boiling and hot filtering purposes the hot water extract is applied. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications.

24、ormaldehyde reacts with pentane-2,4-dione (acetylacetone) in the presence of ammonium acetate to form 3,5-diacetyl-l,4-dihydrolutidine. The absorbance of the extract is measured at a wavelength of 410 nm. NOTE The extract should also be scanned by ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy for confirmation where

25、 the level of formaldehyde exceeds specified limits (see clause 1 O). 5 Reagents All reagents shall be of analytical grade and the water shall be distilled or of equivalent purity. 5.1 Anhydrous ammonium acetate 5.2 Acetic acid 99% (d = 1,05) 5.3 Pentane-2,Gdione 5.4 Hydrochloric acid, 1 mow 5.5 Sod

28、 solution Measure 5,O ml formaldehyde solution (see 5.7) into a 1000 ml volumetric flask and make up to 1000 ml with water. Just before use determine the concentration of this solution as follows. Transfer 10,O ml of the stock solution into a conical flask, add 25,O ml of a standard iodine solution

29、(see 5.8) and 10,O ml of sodium hydroxide solution (see 5.5). Allow to stand for 5 min. Acidify with 11,0 ml of hydrochloric acid (see 5.4) and determine the excess iodine by titration with a standard sodium thiosulphate solution (see 5.9), using 0,l ml of the starch solution (see 5.6) as indicator.

30、 NOTE Add the starch solution when the solution being titrated has become a pale straw colour. Theoretically, 1 ,O ml of 0,05 moIA iodine consumed is equivalent to 1,5 mg formaldehyde. 5.1 3 Formaldehyde-standard: Dilute solution Dilute an aliquot of the formaldehyde stock solution (see 5.12) to 20

31、times its volume with water, and then further dilute an aliquot of this second solution to 1 O0 times its volume so that 1 ,O ml of the final solution contains about 0,001 mg of formaldehyde.
