Making the Difficult Simple The Py-Screener system is designed to screen for phthalate esters in polymers. The use of phthalate esters in toys and food packaging is currently restricted. Moving forward, they are expected to be regulated as restricted substances under the Directive on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment (RoHS (II) Directive) in Europe. The pyrolyzer GC/MS (Py-GC/MS) is used to selectively detect and quantify phthalate esters thermally extracted from samples. This screening system consists of a sampling toolkit, special...

This system can be applied to polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), two types of brominated flame retardants already regulated under the RoHS (II) Directive. In addition to this system, Shimadzu provides an X-ray fluorescence spectrometer for inorganic compound screening and various other analytical systems for accurate quantitation. These systems provide a total solution for everything from screening to the accurate quantitation of substances already regulated under the RoHS (II) Directive, and substances for which regulation is anticipated. Substances Restricted...
