Halogen-Free Testing and Quality Assurance:
Suppliers to the electronics industry are increasingly pressured by consumer electronic manufacturers to provide "Halogen-Free" or "Low-Halogen" products. Currently, most electronic products and components are treated with a flame retardant. Certain halogenated compounds are used as flame retardants in a variety of applications including thermoplastics, insulation materials, component mold compounds, solder masks and printed circuit board laminates. In addition, polyvinyl chloride (PVC - a resin that contains chlorine) is a commonly used base resin for certain cable jacketing.
Halogens consist of five non-metallic elements found in group VIIA of the periodic table and they include: Fluorine (F), Chlorine (CI), Bromine (Br), Iodine (I), and Astatine (At). However, from the electronics industry point of view Halogen-Free products must not contain concentrations of Bromine or Chlorine above the threshold levels as defined by the International Electro technical Commission, IEC 61249-2-21 Standard. Fluorine, Iodine and Astatine are not restricted at this point in time.
Halogens testing and Verification Service: The current threshold limits for Halogen-Free as per IEC 61249-2-21 is as follows:
- Bromine (Br): < 900 parts per million (0.09%)
- Chlorine (CI): < 900 parts per million (0.09%)
- Total Bromine (Br) + Chlorine (CI): < 1500 parts per million (0.15%)
We offer Testing and Verification of your electrical and electronic products/components for the presence and concentration values of Halogens (Bromine and Chlorine). In addition, we can help you with a quality assurance system such as IECQ Hazardous Substance Process Management (HSPM) QC080000 certification to greatly reduce or eliminate the presence of hazardous substances in your process and products.
