⚠ Some of the #pvc additives and microparticle releases may pose risks to people and the environment. That’s the main conclusion of the recent investigation, conducted by the European Chemicals Agency. 📝 A while ago, the European Commission approached ECHA with the request to prepare a report on polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastic and its additives. As the Commission expressed: 📣 “There are growing concerns that the alternative substances used to replace the restricted additives, particularly plasticisers and flame retardants, may themselves pose risks.” 🔬 The investigation focused on 63 PVC additives, such as plasticisers, heat stabilisers and flame retardants. 💻 Learn more about the results and future actions here 👉 https://lnkd.in/d33p4Vy7
