The hazard

The solder has an excessive concentration of lead (measured value up to 32.11%). Lead poses a risk to the environment. The plastic wire cape contains an excessive amount of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP), diisobutyl phthalate (DIBP) (measured values up to 3.76%, 1.69% and 0.11% by weight respectively). These phthalates may harm the health of children, possibly causing damage to their reproductive system. The product also contains short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) (measured value by weight 0.88 %). SCCPs persist in the environment, are toxic to aquatic organisms at low concentrations and bioaccumulate in wildlife and humans, posing a risk to human health and the environment. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Directive on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment (RoHS 2 Directive), the Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) Regulation nor with the REACH Regulation.
