Organotin compounds

Determination of organotin compounds (methyltin, butyltin, octyltin, hexyltin and triphenyltin cations) after migration by multimethod.

In short — AI-generated

This test determines the presence of organotin compounds, such as methyltin, butyltin, and octyltin, in flexible packaging materials. The analysis is performed by simulating the migration of these substances into a food simulant, followed by a multi-method laboratory analysis to quantify the specific tin cations.

The resulting values indicate whether the packaging complies with legal migration limits for chemical additives. Packaging developers and buyers use these results to ensure the safety of materials intended for food contact and to verify compliance with regulatory requirements.
