Version 3 of this dossier, dated 30 March 2020, is a restriction proposal for diantimony trioxide used as a synergist for halogenated flame retardants in electrical and electronic equipment. CAS 1309-64-4. EC 215-175-0. It is not a baby-product test report.
Key numbers
The cover prints Version 3 and the date 30 March 2020. Section 10 (printed p.68) concludes that diantimony trioxide facilitates sorting of brominated-flame-retardant plastic because of its density, that workplace measurements cited there were below national occupational exposure limits, and that monitoring of recycling plants is still warranted because antimony trioxide is treated as a suspected carcinogen. This source page does not adopt an occupational limit or a consumer-article concentration from the dossier tables.
Methods (brief)
