Diffusion of phthalic acid esters from PVC milk tubing.
نویسنده
چکیده
At the beginning of our work on diffusion processes in PVC tubing used in milk collection it was observed that plastic tubes which have been used for extended periods lose their originally smooth inner surface (1). In spite of careful maintenance, fine tears arise, forming a network on the inside which is in contact with milk, water, and cleaning solution (Fig. 1).

An Investigation into Possible Sources and Health Risks of Phthalic Acid Esters in the Iranian Laminated Flexible Films
Phthalates are esters of phthalic acid, mainly used as plasticizer in polymeric packaging materials. The main objective of this research was to determine the exact roots of the phthalate esters in the Iranian flexible/laminated packaging films commercially used for food products such as ketchup, spaghetti, mayonnaise, black tea and snack foods. This investigation was carried out by analyzing th...

Phthalic acid esters are presently being used in amounts and products that can easily, although inadvertently, contribute to environmental pollution. As plasticizers, phthalic acid esters are added to synthetic plastic resins to impart flexibility to the finished product, improve workability during fabrication, and extend or modify properties not present in the original resins (1). Plastic form...

The use of plastics and plastic-containing products is a reality of modern life that has transformed both the home and work environments. In addition to the polymerized molecules that form the matrix of the plastic, however, other chemicals (adjuvants) are commonly incorporated into plastic products to impart specific use or performance characteristics such as combustion resistance, color enhan...
