28、5725-2. 4.1 Determination of total heavy metals content 4.1.1 General The total concentration of heavy metals in a product is considered as a relevant criterion regarding the end of life disposal. This test method identifies the main chemicals of potential hazard which may contaminate the environmen

29、t after disposal or incineration. There shall be no Arsenic, Cadmium and Lead in the materials used for the product assembly or in the final product. Presence of heavy metals shall be established by either: testing the materials individually; or testing the upper and lower components of the shoe as

30、composite groups of materials. NOTE The total concentration of other heavy metals (see Table 1) can be determined using this method.
