Results and discussion

Any other information on results incl. tables

The low PAH amounts that were extractable with toluene from cured rubber compounds (containing 30% carbon black) suggest that the PAHs become part of the network formed during the vulcanizat ion process.

The sum of 8 EU priority PAHs that migrated into toluene from uncured and cured rubbe r compounds was low (total immersion, 168h at 30°C). For uncured compounds the total 8 EU PAH were less than 2 mg/L (ppm); from cured compounds it was less than 0.05 mg/L (ppm); migration of PAHs from uncured and cured rubber samples into artificial sweat, saliva and water was below the limit of quantification.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Migration of PAHs from uncured and cured rubber samples into artificial sweat, saliva and water was below the limit of quantification.
