| Chapter 1 | This standard specifies the maximum allowable content of restricted substances in electrical and electronic products and the rules for determining their compliance. This standard applies to the control of restricted substances such as lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)], polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE) in electrical and electronic products. | This document specifies the maximum allowable content of restricted substances in electrical and electronic products and the rules for determining their compliance. This document applies to the control of restricted substances such as lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)], polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE), di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP), diisobutyl phthalate (DIBP), butyl benzyl phthalate (BBP), and di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) in electrical and electronic products. |
