The European Chemical Agency (ECHA) has launched their fall consultation of additional substances for the REACH Candidate List of SVHCs. Six substances (see Table 1) have been proposed.
The IEC 62474 Validation Team is currently reviewing the substances for potential applicability to the EEE industry.
