【原创】[求助] 德国关于PAH的法令

2005年8月2日，由Aldi组织的关于对PAH值定值的会议在柏林召开。Stiwa,Aldi Nord & Sued, IfR, SGS, TUV Rheinland, LGA 以及 TPS 均出席了会议。下列的PAH值被定义：

对于塑料，经常性固定接触的部件，就是说接触时间会超过30秒的部件（如手柄，方向盘等），值如下：
EPA-PAH 10mg/kg
BaP 1mg/kg

对于塑料，偶尔性接触的部件，就是说接触时间少于30秒的部件，值如下：
EPA-PAH 200mg/kg
BaP 20mg/kg

0.1mg/kg起记值。若被测材料被测低于0.1mg/kg，则视为0mg/kg。 Aldi 从现在即刻就自愿接受认定这些被定义的数值。

The restriction in Germany for PAHs:

In Germany, certain restrictions about PAH’s fall under Drinking water act and other regulations for waste disposal. There are many scientifical publications about the carcinogenic and harmful effects by PAH’s, so that PAH’s might be objected regarding § 30 of the german food and commodities act (LMBG) § 30 does not mention specifically PAH’s, but it refers to applicable ban for all harmful substances, which may cause any cause for human health based on scientifical publications.

PAHs (also known as PCAs - polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) are known to cause cancer and Benzo (a) Pyrene was the first human carcinogen identified in the 1740s as causing testicular cancer in chimney sweeps. The carcinogenic PCAs are in the 3-7 ring size as these, when metabolised and activated in the body are able to fit into the DNA helix structure and bind to the DNA. It is errors in repair that give rise to cancer.
