7 July, 2017, The EU REACH regulation SVHC list has been increased to 174，Every year can increase the 2 batch，Helsinki, 5 September 2017，Nine new material such as cadmium carbonate is proposed to join high focus on material list (SVHC)，A public consultation has been launched, to determine whether REACH add nine new SVHCs,The deadline for public consultationis 20 October 2017. According to the new regulations, once these substances are added SVHC list, must satisfy the information communication, reporting and a series of obligations. The proposed to join SVHC list 9 substance information is as follows:
substances | NOEC | NO CAS | Substancefeatures | Common use |
Dechlorane plus (including any of its individual anti- and syn-isomers or any combination thereof) | - | 13560-89-9; 135821-74-8; 135821-03-3 | vPvB | Used as a non-plasticising flame retardant, used in adhesives and sealants and in binding agents. |
Bisphenol-A | 201-245-8 | 80-05-7 | Endocrine disruptive - environment | Used in the manufacture of polycarbonate, as a hardener for epoxy resins, as an anti-oxidant for processing PVC and in the production of thermal paper. |
Benz[a]anthracene | 200-280-6 | 56-55-3 | CancerigenicPBTvPvB | Normally not produced intentionally but rather occurs as a constituent or impurity in other substances. |
Cadmium nitrate | 233-710-6 | 10325-94-7 | Carcinogenic mutagenic After repeated contact, cause particular organ poisoning | Used in laboratory chemicals and for the manufacture of glass, porcelain and ceramic products. |
Cadmium carbonate | 208-168-9 | 513-78-0 | Carcinogenic mutagenic After repeated contact, cause particular organ poisoning | Used as a pH regulator and in water treatment products, laboratory chemicals, cosmetics and personal care products. |
Cadmium hydroxide | 244-168-5 | 21041-95-2 | Carcinogenic mutagenic After repeated contact, cause particular organ poisoning | Used in laboratory chemicals and for the manufacture of electrical, electronic and optical equipment. |
Chrysene | 205-923-4 | 218-01-9 | Normally not produced intentionally but rather occurs as a constituent or impurity in other substances. | |
Reaction products of 1,3,4-thiadiazolidine-2,5-dithione, formaldehyde and 4-heptylphenol, branched and linear (RP-HP) [with ≥0.1% w/w 4-heptylphenol, branched and linear] | - | - | Endocrine disruptive - environment | Used as a lubricant additive in lubricants and greases. |
Tricobalt tetraoxide containing ≥ 0.1% w/w nickel oxides | 215-157-2 | 1308-06-1 | Cancerigenic | Used in laboratory chemicals, pH regulators and in water treatment products, semiconductors, polymers and coating products. |
That bisphenol A has been included in the list of SVHC, because of its reproductive toxicity and endocrine disruptive to human health.This proposal is to increase its damage properties.
