What is the danger

The solders in the product have an excessive concentration of lead (measured value: up to 52 % by weight). The plastic material of the cable has an excessive concentration of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) (measured values: up to 1.45 %, 0.28 % and 2.6 % by weight, respectively). Plastics in the product have an excessive concentration of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE) (measured value: 0.9 % by weight). Lead poses a risk to the environment. DEHP and DBP pose a risk to human health and the environment. PBDE might cause neurodevelopmental behavioural defects and is very persistent and bio-accumulative, posing a risk for the environment and human health. SCCPs persist in the environment, are toxic to aquatic organisms at low concentrations and bio-accumulate in wildlife and humans, posing a risk to human health and the environment. Prolonged exposure to them through the skin may cause cancer.
