Part 3-2 of IEC 62321 specifies the screening analysis of the total bromine (Br) in homogeneous materials found in polymers and electronics by using the analytical technique of combustion ion chromatography (C-IC). This test method has been evaluated for ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene), EMC (epoxy molding compound), and PE (polyethylene) within the concentration ranges as specified in Table 1. The use of this method for other types of materials or concentration ranges outside those specified below has not been evaluated. Table 1 – Tested concentration ranges for bromine by C-IC in various materials Substance/element Bromine Parameter Unit of measure
mg/kg Medium/material tested ABS EMC PE Concentration or concentration range tested 124 to 890 195 to 976 96 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
