Introduction in environmental testing
Perspectives
EU perspective: “gift to society”

What is REACH?
EU Chemicals Regulation
- Registration
- Evaluation
- Authorization and restriction
- Chemicals Protection human health + environment Enhancing competitiveness of EU chemicals industry
12,400 Substances 48,000 registrations ECHA

- environmental fate, - eco-toxicological, - physico-chemical:
Limit testing by: Substance Information Exchange Forum (SIEF)
Substance of Very High Concern (SVHC) Regulatory authority in implementing REACH
What about ASTM?

What about testing?
Only toxicity testing?

REACH and ASTM F2577-14
Scope: - case studies to illustrate the decision
process - On forehand knowledge: example
wrought steel: there is no need to test for organic substances - Generic: If knowledge cannot rule out
that a substance is present a test method may be required
- recommendations on the application and frequency of test methods
Guidance for Assessment of Materials and Products for Declarable Substances

ASTM advantage for REACH
Advantages:
- True international experts: - EU - Asian countries - Americas - Global players involved: - Bureau Veritas, Intertek, UL,
others
- Bi-annual screening and update

What is RoHS 2?
EU Regulation
- Restriction
- Of - Hazardous
- Substances (Cd, Cr6+, Hg, Pb, PBB+PBDE)
Prevent the release of hazardous substances into the environment Ban on heavy metals and other dangerous chemicals in electrical and electronic equipment RoHS 2: much wider range of products: thermostats, medical devices, cables, control panels
Electric+ electronic equipment

RoHS 2
What’s new? • A gradual extension to all EEE, cables and
spare parts; full compliance by 2019; • A review of banned substances by July 2014,
and periodically thereafter; • Clearer and more transparent rules for granting
exemptions • Improved coherence with REACH • Clarification of important definitions • CE marking denoting compliance with EU
norms and RoHS • transition periods of up to 8 years for new
products affected

• Upstream focus • 6 substances: Pb, Hg, Cd, CrIV,
PBB,PBDE • E&E • Homogeneous materials discussion • Import testing • REACH and more categories
• Continuous improvement, design and recycling technology
• Heavy metals and flame retardants • Cooperation government + producers • Same exemptions as EU RoHS • No mark required • Not applicable before 2008
• Catalogue of Waste Electric and Electronic Product
• Same 6 substances as EU RoHS
• Must be on Catalog
• No exemptions
• Export testing

EU: IEC is mandated: Testmethod IEC 62321 - IEC 62321-1 Part 1: Introduction and
overview - IEC 62321-2 Part 2: Disassembly, disjunction
and mechanical sample preparation - IEC 62321-3-1 Part 3-1: Screening - Lead,
mercury, cadmium, total chromium and total bromine using X-ray fluorescence spectrometry - IEC 62321-3-2 Part 3-2: Screening - Total
bromine in polymers and electronics by Combustion - Ion Chromatography - IEC 62321-4 Part 4: Mercury in polymers,
metals and electronics by CV-AAS, CV- AFS, ICP-OES and ICP-MS - IEC 62321-5 Part 5: Cadmium, lead and
chromium in polymers and electronics and cadmium and lead in metals by AAS, AFS, ICP-OES and ICP-MS
What about RoHS testing?
and ASTM?

In progress: - tin-based solder alloys using optical emission spectrometry; - analysis of heavy metals in glass by field portable X-ray
fluorescence (XRF); - identification and quantification of lead in paint and other
coatings using energy dispersive x-ray spectrometry (EDXRF); and - analysis of tin-based solder alloys for lead, cadmium, mercury,
antimony and bismuth (and others) using inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry.

ASTM advantage for RoHS
Advantages:
- True international subject matter experts: - EU - Asian countries - Americas - Global players involved: - Testing labs and instrument
manufacturers - Bi-annual screening and
update - 4 year update, F2577, F2617

Rare Earth Materials (REMs)
What are they …..why bother?
© ASTM International October 21, 2014 REACH, ROHS & REMs Testing 16
REMs in the world
Why
© ASTM International
Perspectives: - Policy framework for raw materials: consumption,
availability, sustainable supply - Remove trade barriers: Chili, Peru, Centr. Americas - Monitoring and enforcement - Outreach activities Activities EU - 2008 raw materials initiatives (TTIP) - ERECON
