RoHS 3 mandates strict maximum concentration values (MCVs) by weight in homogeneous materials for 10 specific substances: 4 heavy metals, 2 brominated flame retardants, and 4 specific phthalate plasticizers.
Key Highlights & Declarations:
- Lead (Pb) < 0.1% (1000 ppm)
- Mercury (Hg) < 0.1% (1000 ppm)
- Cadmium (Cd) < 0.01% (100 ppm)
- Hexavalent Chromium (Cr VI) < 0.1% (1000 ppm)
- Polybrominated Biphenyls (PBB) < 0.1% (1000 ppm)
- Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDE) < 0.1% (1000 ppm)
- Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) < 0.1% (1000 ppm)
- Butyl benzyl phthalate (BBP) < 0.1% (1000 ppm)
- Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) < 0.1% (1000 ppm)
- Diisobutyl phthalate (DIBP) < 0.1% (1000 ppm)
