3.084 Additif alimentaire E240, Formaldéhyde

Le formaldéhyde (E)240 était listé comme conservateur au Codex alimentarius avant 2017. Il est aujourd’hui délisté.

Cependant il reste utilisé dans la fabrication de l’acide alginique et ses alginates (E400..405), des carraghénanes (E407, E407a) et l’héxamine (E239). Il peut être utilisé directement comme additif dans l’alimentation animale (hors bio).

Poison puissant dont l’utilisation dans la production alimentaire est interdite dans presque tous les pays du monde.

Largement utilisé aux États-Unis il est le polluant de l’air des maisons le plus rependus. L’une des utilisations les plus courantes du formaldéhyde aux États-Unis est la fabrication de résines urée-formaldéhyde, utilisées dans les panneaux de particules. Ce composé organique volatil (COV) est également très souvent présent dans les vêtements synthétiques, car il confère aux tissus leurs propriétés : infroissable, résistant et hydrofuge. Ceci en fait donc un des polluants les plus courants de nos intérieurs.

C’est un gaz hautement réactif que l’on trouve dans la combustion incomplète de substances carbonées ou d’hydrocarbures, il y en a dans la fumée des feux de forêt, dans les rejets d’automobiles et dans la fumée du tabac. Il est produit industriellement par oxydation de méthanol. Le formaldéhyde gazeux n’est pas disponible commercialement. Dans la très grande majorité des cas, il est produit et vendu sous forme de solutions aqueuses contenant de 25 à 56% de formaldéhyde et de 0,5 à 15% de méthanol.

CARACTÉRISTIQUES

Préparé dans le commerce par oxydation catalytique en phase vapeur du méthanol en utilisant de l’air comme agent oxydant et de l’argent, du cuivre, de l’alumine ou du coke chauffés comme catalyseur. … Préparation de formaldéhyde stable en chauffant des polyoxyméthylènes de faible poids moléculaire avec du pentoxyde de diphosphore.

Utilisations

Le formaldéhyde est utilisé pour l’homme comme traitement du pied d’athlète, dans les pastilles contre la toux, les désinfectants cutanés, les bains de bouche, les crèmes spermaticides, comme désinfectant pour les vasectomies et les canaux radiculaires, et autrefois pour stériliser certains kystes avant l’ablation chirurgicale.

Toxicité

Le formaldéhyde est très toxique chez tous les animaux, l’ingestion de 30 ml d’une solution à 37% de concentration peut être létale pour un homme.

Classé cancérigène de ‘Groupe 1’ au Centre International de Recherches sur le Cancer (CIRC) et ‘Connu pour être cancérigène chez l’homme‘ au National Toxicology Program américain (NTP).

Les risques

Très nombreux effets mutagènes, génotoxiques et reprotoxiques démontrés.

Officiellement, l’EFSA européenne ne reporte pas de préoccupation toxicologique, le justifiant par des dosages estimés faibles.

GHS Hazard StatementsH301: Toxic if swallowed [Danger Acute toxicity, oral] H311: Toxic in contact with skin [Danger Acute toxicity, dermal] H314: Causes severe skin burns and eye damage [Danger Skin corrosion/irritation] H317: May cause an allergic skin reaction [Warning Sensitization, Skin] H331: Toxic if inhaled [Danger Acute toxicity, inhalation] H341: Suspected of causing genetic defects [Warning Germ cell mutagenicity] H350: May cause cancer [Danger Carcinogenicity]

Effets secondaires

EPA: cancérogène probable pour l’homme, basé sur des preuves limitées chez l’homme et des preuves suffisantes chez les animaux. IARC: cancérogène pour l’homme. NTP: On s’attend raisonnablement à ce qu’il soit un cancérogène pour l’homme

RÉSIDUS AUTORISÉS (dits Critères de pureté)

Le formaldéhyde se trouve naturellement dans les aliments jusqu’à des niveaux de 300 à 400 mg / kg, y compris les fruits et légumes (p. Ex. Poire, pomme, oignon vert), viandes, poissons (p. Ex. Canard de Bombay, morue), crustacés et champignons séchés, etc. L’ingestion d’une petite quantité de formaldéhyde NATUREL est peu susceptible de provoquer un effet aigu.

Liste des Produits chimiques préoccupants

Au Canada, le formaldéhyde sert principalement à la production de résines et d’engrais ainsi qu’à diverses utilisations mineures. Le formaldéhyde pénètre dans l’environnement canadien à partir de sources naturelles (y compris les incendies de forêt) et de sources humaines directes, comme les véhicules à moteur et d’autres utilisations sur place faisant appel à la combustion de carburants et à des procédés industriels. L’oxydation des composés organiques naturels et anthropiques présents dans l’air peut aussi donner lieu à la formation secondaire de formaldéhyde. Même s’il n’existe pas d’estimations quantitatives à ce sujet, il est probable que les rejets provenant de sources naturelles et secondaires au Canada sont plus considérables que les rejets humains directs. Toutefois, c’est au voisinage des sources anthropiques que les concentrations les plus élevées de formaldéhyde ont été mesurées dans l’environnement, et elles sont des plus préoccupantes pour l’exposition des humains et d’autres organismes vivants.

Avantages

A température ambiante le formaldéhyde est un gaz, cependant très soluble dans l’eau, l’alcool, l’acétone. Le terme de formol désigne simplement du formaldéhyde dilué dans l’eau.

Le formaldéhyde possède des propriétés biocides, de fixateur, d’intermédiaire de synthèse et de conservateur, propriétés très recherchées dans pratiquement tous les secteurs de fabrication d’une économie moderne.

Source de l’additif

Le formaldéhyde est synthétisé à partir de méthanol.

Origine

Le formaldéhyde est un gaz incolore à forte odeur désagréable. Parfaitement soluble dans l’eau. Une solution aqueuse de formaldéhyde est appelée “formol”.

Ou peut-on retrouvé

Selon Wikipédia, le formaldéhyde ou formol (nom généralement réservé aux solutions aqueuses) n’est pas limité à l’alimentation transformée puisqu’on le trouve aussi comme :

  • Conservateur dans les vaccins toxoïdes (anti-grippe, anti-hépatite A, par ex.);
  • Produits cosmétiques ;
  • Dentisterie, produits d’obturation des canaux de dents dévitalisées ;
  • Fixateur et conservateur de cadavres d’animaux ou d’humains ;
  • Désinfectant, notamment en médecine vétérinaire (pédiluves de désinfection) ;
  • Pour assécher ou tuer la peau (traitement médical des verrues par exemple) ;
  • Dans la production de nombreux autres produits chimiques ….

Toujours selon Wikipédia, de petites quantités de méthanal seraient produites par le métabolisme de la plupart des organismes, dont l’organisme humain. Ce serait aussi un des polluants les plus répandus de l’air intérieur des habitations et lieux fermés de travail.

Cosmétiques et soins de la peau

En ce qui nous concerne, cette substance chimique est donc initialement un produit attrayant pour l’industrie cosmétique surtout d’un point de vue financier car il en faut très peu pour conserver un produit, tellement son action est puissante. Son cout de revient ne dépasse pas quelques dollars le kg.

Ses fonctions (INCI)

  • Antimicrobien : Aide à ralentir la croissance de micro-organismes sur la peau et s’oppose au développement des microbes
  • Dénaturant : Rend les cosmétiques désagréables. Principalement ajouté aux cosmétiques contenant de l’alcool éthylique
  • Conservateur : Inhibe le développement des micro-organismes dans les produits cosmétiques.

Cet ingrédient est présent dans 0.04% des cosmétiques.
