Bisphenol A migration
Bisphenol A (BPA) is a chemical that is
mixed with other chemicals to manufacture plastics and resins. Bisphenol A
(BPA) is typically present in polycarbonate (a high-performance rigid plastic)
and sometimes in the form of additives in certain PVC materials. It is
noteworthy that human exposure to bisphenol A (BPA) may have adverse effects on
the brain, endocrine, and reproductive systems. It is generally believed that
compared to adults, young children and fetuses are more susceptible to damage
from exposure to bisphenol A (BPA).
In June 2014, the European Union issued
Directive 2014/81/EU to limit the use of Bisphenol A (BPA, CAS No. 80-05-7) in toys
for children under 36 months of age, or other toys that can be put into
children's mouths.
On June 25th, the European Commission
decided to strictly limit the migration of bisphenol A through liquid to 0.1
milligrams per liter for toys intended for children aged 3 and below, as well
as toys that may be placed in the mouth according to design, in order to
enhance the safety of toys.
On May 25, 2017, the European Commission
published Directive 2017/898, amending Annex II, Appendix 3 of Directive
2009/48/EC (Toy Safety Directive) concerning Bisphenol A (BPA). The new
directive applies to toys intended for children under 36 months old or other
toys that can be placed in their mouths. The Toy Safety Directive specifies
specific migration limits for chemicals in toys intended for use by children
under 36 months of age or other toys that can be placed in their mouths, as
listed in Appendix C of Annex II. At present, these chemicals are bisphenol A
(BPA), tris (2-chloroethyl) phosphate (TCEP), tris (2-chloropropyl) phosphate
(TCPP), and tris (2,3-dichloropropyl) phosphate (TDCP).
The new directive lowers the bisphenol A
(BPA) content limit for toys by more than half, reducing the migration limit
from 0.1 milligrams per liter implemented in December 2015 to 0.04 milligrams
per liter. EU member states must pass and publish relevant laws, regulations,
and administrative provisions before November 25, 2018, in order to comply with
Directive 2017/898. The relevant legal provisions must be implemented from
November 26, 2018.
