Abstract: The migration of five phthalates from microwave paper to food simulant Tenax was studied under microwave heating at heating power of 250 w and 600 w respectively. It was shown that the migration was influenced by microwave heating power, heating time, molecular structure, molecular weight and polarity of migrant. Compared with conventional heating, microwave heating could accelerate migration process, indicating that the migration was also influenced by heating mode. Microwave heating can be used as a unique method to accelerate the migration of the contaminants from paper packaging.
