Environmental testing

      Environmental testing includes RoHS testing, REACH testing, PAHs (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons), Phthalates (phthalates), Halogen (halogen), Formaldehyde (formaldehyde), PFOS, PFOA, DMF (dimethyl fumarate) , PCP (Pentachlorophenol), Cadmium content (cadmium content test), Nickel (nickel release), Total Lead (total lead content) and other environmental tests.

 

      RoHS testing

      The EU officially promulgated the 2002/95/EC Directive on January 27, 2003, the Directive on the Prohibition of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (RoHS Directive), which came into force on July 1, 2006. . On July 21, 2011, RoHS2.0, the revised RoHS Directive (2011/65/EU), replaced the old RoHS Directive (2002/95/EC). EU member states must implement RoHS2 before January 2, 2013. 0 updated to local law.

 

      REACH detection

      In May 2007, the European Union enacted the most important regulation in the EU's 20 years: REACH, the 1907/2006/EC Regulation on Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH). This is the latest chemical regulation of the European Union. It came into effect on June 1, 2007 and was officially implemented in the EU from June 1, 2008. On December 17, 2015, the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) has formally included five substances in the 14th critical material into the list of candidates for SVHCs (SVHC list). Currently, there are 169 substances in the SVHC list. Previously, Sweden proposed dicyclohexyl phthalate (CAS: 84-61-7) and 1,6-hexanediol diacrylate (CAS: 13048-33-4) failed to enter the SVHC list.

 

      PAHs polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons

      PAHs (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) are also known as: Polyaromates, Polyaromatic Hydrocarbons. (Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons PAHs) are a class of chemical substances formed by coal, oil, gas, wood, garbage or other organic matter when incompletely burned, with more than 100 different species. They can be extracted and used as plasticizers. Some of them, such as Benzo (a) pyrene (benzopyrene a), are classified as carcinogenic and some are suspected carcinogens.

 

     Phthalates (phthalate)

 

    Phthalates (phthalate) is a widely used industrial plasticizer. The addition of phthalates is mainly to make hard plastics softer.

    The European Union issued Directive 2005/84/EC (formerly 1999/815/EC) in the official gazette of December 27, 2005, restricting the content of Phthalates in children's toys and other supplies. The 25 member states must convert the directive into national legislation by July 16, 2006, and will be implemented on January 16, 2007. All manufacturers and importers must abide by the relevant laws.
