The European Union formally added six SVHC substances to Annex XIV of the regulation. The substances include the three phthalates (DEHP, BBP, and DBP), HBCDD, MDA, and musk xylene. The phthalates have been particularly heavily used in the electronics industry and is driving significant redesign efforts. Addition of these substances to Annex XIV is the final step in the SVHC process to drive elimination of the use of these substances in Europe.
