What is the danger
The white charger cable contains an excessive amount of di-(2-etylhexyl)phtalate (DEHP) and short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) (measured values up to 9.04% and 2.38% by weight, respectively). Also a solder on the PCB contains an excessive amount of lead (measured values up to 50.9%). Phthalates may harm the health of children, causing possible damage to their reproductive system. SCCPs persist in the environment, are toxic to aquatic organisms at low concentrations and bioaccumulate in wildlife and humans. Lead is harmful to the environment.
