What standards do anti - aging agents used in exported plastic rattan need to meet?
Plastic rattan is easily subject to ageing due to factors such as exposure to the elements or poor - quality raw materials. To protect plastic rattan from fading, most manufacturers will add anti - ageing agents during production, such as the anti - ageing agents of Jinwei Nanomi. So, does the added anti - ageing agent need to meet certain standards?
At present, all kinds of materials we use are developing in the direction of green and environmental protection. Therefore, generally, the anti - ageing agent for plastic rattan needs to meet at least one environmental - protection standard. Common standards include RoHS and REACH.
RoHS is a mandatory standard legislated by the European Union. Its full name is the "Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive" in electrical and electronic equipment. The purpose of this standard is to eliminate six substances, namely lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls and polybrominated diphenyl ethers, in electrical and electronic products, and it particularly stipulates that the content of cadmium should not exceed 0.01%.
REACH is the abbreviation of "Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals". The REACH Directive is a regulation of the European Union for the preventive management of all chemicals entering its market. Therefore, for daily - use products produced in the European Union or imported into the European Union market, mainly referring to textiles, they must pass the registration, inspection and approval of the content of harmful chemical substances. Once the content exceeds the specified amount, they are not allowed to be sold in the European Union market.
