This migration report analyzes samples of ceramic sheets coated with a liquid material used in drinking water facilities. The report details the experimental procedure where sample pieces were immersed in water at 70°C over three 24-hour cycles to determine migration levels of organic compounds. Analysis found that migration levels of all compounds tested were below their specific migration limits, indicating the material is suitable for use in contact with drinking water according to applicable standards.

2. ELEMENTS OF STUDY DESCRIPTION
Material pieces. The pieces consist in ceramics sheets covers with the product. The
samples have been identified as 1889760 (Sample) and 1922401 (Blank)
Application: The material has been indicated to be used in water installations.
Commercial name: 11775 CONTROLL INNERSEAL.
Reception data in AQUALOGY LABAQUA on 28th-February 2013.
Manufactured: MAYNOR AS
NORUEGA. Sample remitted by: KOMSOL
HISPAÑA, S.L. Samples prepared by : KOMSOL
HISPAÑA, S.L..
Essay pieces preparation: The sample consist in 10 ceramics sheets cover with the
product. KOMSOL HISPAÑA applied the product on the sheets according with the manual
instructions of the product.
● Pieces characteristics and dimensions:
Dimensions:
10.5 cm × 3.1cm each piece.
S = 0.326dm2
× 2 faces = 0.652dm2
Total pieces = 10
STotal = 6.52dm2
Ratio S/V = 6.52 / 1 litter = 6.52dm-1

3. EXPERMENTAL PROCEDURE
The present study is based on UNE-EN ISO 12873-2: 2005 Influence of materials on water
intended for human consumption, Influence of migration. Part 2: Test method applied in situ
materials, excluding metallic materials and cement-based materials.
When the migration water was obtained, the water sample was analyzed, indicated in the
Annex I, in order to calculate the migration rate.
According with the UNE-EN ISO 12873-2: 2005 and with CEN/CENELEC regulations, all
the European countries are required to reach the specifications indicated.
Table 1. General information about the migration test:

Reagents used:
- Tap water from the laboratory.
- Essay water, Milli-q from Millipore A10 equipment (Internal Laboratory Code = A-052)
- Chronometer ID Plan 1873, ID Calibration 25126. (Laboratory code G-154) Ultratermostater
+ refrigeration unit ID Plan 701. ID Calibration 9732. Laboratory Code
(AG – 145)
Migration steps:
- Sampling, shipment and preservation. The sample was provided by the company KOMSOL
HISPAÑA, S.L No special preservation condition was required.
- Sample preparation. The client covered the ceramics sheets on LABAQUA facilities. After
the product applications process, the sheets was stand 28 days in the dark. According with
UNE-EN 12873-1: 2005 only the surface in contact with the water must be into
consideration for the migration. All the sheets faces was cover with the product.
- Pieces treatment. The previous treatment consist on a washing step with a continuous water
flow (rate between 1 to 3 m/min) during 60±5 minutes.
- Static contact period. The sheets were complete immersed in one (1) litter of water during
24±1 hours. No disinfection process has been required.
- Migration essay. The sheets were immersed in 1L of water at 70±2 ºC. Three cycles (24
hour each) was carried out at the indicated temperature. At the same time, a blank without
samples pieces, have been also carried out in the same conditions than the samples. This report
includes the results obtained for the performed cycle of each sample
- Analysis. The final concentration of the organic compounds was determined by means of the
analytical methods indicated in the Annex I.
