What is the danger
The plastic material of the cable has excessive concentrations of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), diisobutyl phthalate (DIBP), lead and short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) (measured values: 1.9%, 0.15%, 0.13% and 3.5% by weight, respectively). The solders in the product have an excessive concentration of lead (measured value up to 72.6% by weight). DEHP and DIPB may harm the health by causing possible damage to the reproductive system. DIPB may further harm the health of children. Lead poses a risk to the environment. 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.
