Hazard: The black cord has an excessive concentration of short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs). 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. The black cord also has an excessive concentration of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), diisobutyl phthalate (DIBP) and dibutyl phthalate (DBP) (measured values: up to 1.5 %, 5.4 %, 1.2 % and 1.5 % by weight, respectively). These phthalates may harm the health by possibly causing damage to the reproductive system. The solder in the product has an excessive concentration of lead (measured value up to 57.8 % by weight). Lead poses a risk to the environment.
