PBDE

(Poly Brominated Depheny Ether)

Fire retardant of plastic,

rubber,wood and fiber

4-10 PBDEs are added to the list of the poisonous materials.

- Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999

America don't restrict the PBDEs

appropriately

The Good Role Model for the other countries

WEEE ; Directive 2002/96/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 January 2003 on waste electrical and electronic equipment

RoHS ; Directive 2002/95/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 January 2003 on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment

First kind Specified Chemical Substances

Restriction for importing and manufacturing

- TeBDE, PeBDE, HxBDE, HpBDE

Managed Chemical Substances

Careful using

- DeBDE, MBDE, DiBDE, TrBDE

The Danger Of PBDEs

Do You Know PBDEs?

Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals

A study of 20 mother-child pairs indicates that....

Products which contain PBDEs

computer

television

building materials

carpet

etc

Especially on estrogen

and thyroid hormones

(The Geneva association)

  • Don't use electronics and furniture made before 2005.
  • Vacuum regularly
  • Check the list of PBDE-free products

@ www.ewg.org/pbdefree

It may too late

The PBDEs' density of wildlife's body and human body is rising.

Problem

Companies claim "PBDE is safe"

Sources

"Penta-BDE is put in question in Europe.

It is not produced and imported domestically now. In the inspection, the result of denying toxicity comes out on such as fishes, and I recognized that there is no influence on the human body even if it is high concentrated. "

Demands of penta-BDEs are much more than any other contries

Annual using of penta-BDE -2001

Fire-retardants in brest milk

75times higher than that in Europe

-EWG(2006)

BUT

there is no evidence that PBDE is safe!!!
