1、Designation: F2931 11Standard Guide forAnalytical Testing of Substances of Very High Concern inMaterials and Products1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2931; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the ye
2、ar of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This guide contains a list of potential test methods forthe analysis of Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) a
3、sdesignated by the European Chemical Agency (ECHA), inOctober 2008. Substances of Very High Concern are defined inArticle 57 of the European Union Regulation #1907/2006.Information on the test methods cited is publicly available andis drawn from a variety of sources. This guide is intended toassist
4、in the selection of test methods that are applicable for theSVHCs identified.1.2 The specific SVHCs covered within this guide arecompiled from the ECHACandidate List of Substances of VeryHigh Concern. This list is also referred to as the REACHCandidate List.1.3 This guide specifically addresses meth
5、ods for the analy-sis of SVHCs in products. It is not intended to cover the manyand varied analysis challenges associated in the manufacturingenvironment.1.4 Limitations:1.4.1 This guide is intended to provide a compilation ofavailable test methods for the SVHCs listed on the ECHACandidate list and
6、is not intended to be exhaustive. The testmethods within this guide are not the only ones available forany specific substances and this guide does not recommend anyspecific test method.1.4.2 Test methods for specific substances at the detectionlimits required for REACH reporting are not always avail
7、able.In some cases, it is necessary to deduce the quantity ofsubstance present through the analysis and quantification of itselements. Although this approach is routinely used somedegree of uncertainty exists in the final result due to thereduced specificity of the test method.1.4.3 Although this gu
8、ide is intended to be updated on aperiodic basis to capture new developments in the field, thereis no assurance that the information provided is the mostcurrent.1.5 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.6 This standa
9、rd does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.
