REACH Testing for Cyclododecane in Polymer Blends: A Comprehensive Guide

REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation, and Restriction of Chemicals) testing is a critical regulatory requirement for companies operating within the European Union. The regulation aims to improve the protection of human health and the environment by identifying and managing the risks posed by chemicals. One specific testing service offered by Eurolab is REACH Testing for Cyclododecane in Polymer Blends.

Legal and Regulatory Framework

The REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 is the primary legislation governing chemical substances within the EU. The regulation introduces a system of registration, evaluation, authorisation, and restriction to manage the risks posed by chemicals. The regulation requires companies to register their chemicals with the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), which will then evaluate the substances properties and potential hazards.

International and National Standards

Several international and national standards govern REACH Testing for Cyclododecane in Polymer Blends:

  • ISO 9001:2015 - Quality Management Systems

  • ASTM E1762-11 - Standard Practice for Conducting Material Balance Calculations to Determine the Extent of Combustion or Oxidation of a Test Sample

  • EN 14041-1:2016 - Plastics Piping Systems and Fittings - Polyethylene (PE) - Part 1: General

  • TSE (Turkish Standards Institution) TS 1313:2018 - Plastics Piping Systems and Fittings

    • These standards provide guidelines for conducting REACH Testing for Cyclododecane in Polymer Blends, including test methods, sample preparation, and data analysis.

    Standard Development Organizations

    Several organizations are involved in the development of standards related to REACH testing:

  • International Organization for Standardization (ISO)

  • American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM)

  • European Committee for Standardization (CEN)

  • Turkish Standards Institution (TSE)

    • These organizations collaborate to develop and update standards, ensuring consistency across industries and regions.

    Standard Evolution and Updates

    Standards evolve over time as new technologies and research emerge. Organizations such as ISO and ASTM regularly review and update their standards to reflect changes in industry practices and scientific understanding. This ensures that REACH Testing for Cyclododecane in Polymer Blends remains current and effective.
