The EU issued new amendments to the RoHS Directive, No. 20/2009.

  • 2009-08-25
The EU issued new amendments to the RoHS Directive, No. 20/2009.

The European Commission issued two decisions, 2009/428/EC and 2009/443/EC, on June 5 and June 11, respectively, revising the exclusion clauses of the RoHS Directive concerning the use of lead, cadmium, and mercury.

2009/428/EC
The RoHS Directive Exemption List item 22 (lead as an impurity in Faraday rotators made of rare-earth iron garnet crystals for fiber optic communication systems) (2006/691/EC) was amended, with the exemption period ending on December 31, 2009, and the exemption was cancelled from January 1, 2010.

2009/443/EC
Six exemptions related to the use of lead, cadmium, and mercury have been added.

This relates to lead in the solder used for fine copper wires with a diameter of 100 micrometers or less in power transformers;
Lead in metal-ceramic trimmer potentiometers;
Cadmium in photoresistors used as optocouplers in professional audio equipment (exemption expires on December 31, 2009).
Mercury in cathode sputtering inhibitors in DC plasma displays (the content per display shall not exceed 30 milligrams, exemption expires on July 1, 2010);
Lead based on high-voltage diode electroplating layer of zinc borate glass;
Cadmium and cadmium oxide are used in thick film slurries for aluminum-bonded beryllium oxide.
