Plastic Film Organic Compound Analysis

Plastic Film Organic Compound Analysis

Plastic Film Organic Compound Analysis

The analysis of organic compounds in plastic films is a crucial process that ensures compliance with international standards and quality control. Plastic films are widely used across various industries, including packaging, electronics, medical devices, and construction. Ensuring the integrity and safety of these materials requires thorough testing to identify any potentially harmful or incompatible chemicals.

At Eurolab, our expertise lies in providing comprehensive organic compound analysis for plastic films. This service is designed to meet stringent quality standards and ensure compliance with international regulations such as ISO 17025. Our team of experts uses state-of-the-art analytical instruments to identify both known and unknown compounds present within the film.

Our process begins with a thorough sample preparation, which involves cutting small pieces from the film specimen. These samples are then subjected to precise analysis using techniques such as Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). FTIR helps in identifying functional groups present in the polymer structure, while GC-MS provides detailed information about volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds.

The results from these analyses are used to determine whether any regulated substances or impurities exceed acceptable limits. For instance, phthalates, bisphenol A (BPA), and certain plasticizers may be present in the film, and their levels must comply with standards like EU Directive 2011/65/EU on Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS).

Our comprehensive reporting includes not only quantitative results but also qualitative insights into potential risks associated with the identified compounds. This information is invaluable for quality managers, compliance officers, and R&D engineers who need to make informed decisions about material selection and process optimization.

In addition to regulatory compliance, our service offers significant benefits in terms of product lifecycle management. By identifying problematic compounds early in the development phase, manufacturers can avoid costly recalls and reputational damage later on. Furthermore, understanding the chemical composition allows for continuous improvement in formulations, leading to more sustainable products.
