Abstract

The work aims to establish a method for the determination of 10 PFASs in food contact composite films and bags and investigate the safety risks and regulatory compliance of these substances in such materials. With ethyl acetate as the extraction solvent, ultrasound-assisted extraction was employed to extract the substances of interest. Under acid catalysis, the alcohols were converted to their corresponding acetates with acetic anhydride. The target substances were detected with gas chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS). By examining the effects of catalyst type, derivatization reaction temperature, and reaction time on recovery rates, it was determined that sulfuric acid was the best catalyst, with derivatization by acetic anhydride at 60 °C for 60 minutes. The target substances were separated by a DB-5MS (30 m×0.25 mm×0.25 μm) capillary column with a temperature gradient method and GC-MS/MS multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. Quantification was performed with the internal standard method. Experimental results showed that the 10 PFASs had good linearity in the concentration range of 10-200 μg/L, with correlation coefficients r≥0.997. The LODs ranged from 0.001 to 0.003 mg/kg, and the LOQs ranged from 0.003 to 0.01 mg/kg. In the matrix of composite food contact films and bags, the average recoveries at three spiked levels (high, medium, and low) ranged from 85.8% to 108.4%, with relative standard deviations (RSD, n=6) of 1.6% to 7.6%. This method is characterized by accurate qualitative and quantitative results, high sensitivity, good selectivity, and excellent reproducibility, making it suitable for the simultaneous detection of 10 PFASs in composite food contact films and bags.
