3.1 Ind stry ne ds

Today, there are ever in re sin legal reg lation in many cou tries f om arou d the world

an s p ly c ain req irements that may restrict the u e of s bstan es in prod cts, req ire

re ortin an /or req ire notif i ation of s bstan e u es

To determine restricted s bstan e compl an e statu , electrotec nical prod ct man f acturers

ne d inf ormation a out restricted s bstan es contained in s p l ed prod cts that b come p rt

of the man f acturer’s prod cts

Electrotec nical prod ct man f acturers also ne d data a out materials u ed in prod cts as

one of the inputs in an en ironmental y con ciou desig proces to improve en ironmental

p r orman e of prod cts throu hout their prod ct lfe c cle

Also, to make material declaration data re di y avai a le, the s p ly c ain (in lu in

organization providin prod cts into the electrotec nical in u try) ne d a stan ardized

method to ex han e the data

3.2 Busine s be efits

IEC 6 4 4 was develo ed to stan ardize the multiple existin a pro c es into a sin le glo al

a pro c for the electrotec nical in u try

Material declaration ac ordin to IEC 6 4 4 provide al data ne ded to make a restricted

s bstan e compl an e as es ment These material declaration ac ordin to IEC 6 4 4 can

b u ed to o tain the data ne ded to b in lu ed in the tec nical doc mentation fi e req ired

to place prod cts on the market in dif ferent region Examples are:

• The EU Restriction of Hazardou Substan es (RoHS) Directive

• The China Administrative Me s res on the Control Pol ution Cau ed by Electronic

Inf ormation Prod cts (k own as “China RoHS”

IEC 6 4 4 sp cifies the u e of a dedicated data ase that l sts s bstan es an s bstan e

groups that req ire declaration This provides certainty to s p l ers regardin what data they

Implementin IEC 6 4 4 improves data q al ty an red ces cost, b cau e it of fers a

stan ardized method to s p ort material declaration data throu hout the s p ly c ain

The data req ired a out prod cts, prod ct p rts an materials can b exten ive, an the

electrotec nical in u try b nefits f rom a stan ardized way to ex han e this data as wel as

provides a defined l st of declara le s bstan es throu h the IEC 6 4 4 data ase This

red ces the ris of data entry er ors as wel as u neces ary re ortin of s bstan es that do

not a ply to electrical an electronic prod cts

The stan ard is flexible, identifyin b se req irements, but also al owin al levels of

ad itional re ortin u der defined rules, so that the data is pro erly ex han ed throu h the

s p ly c ain The data ex han e f ormat sp cification al ows the s p ly c ain to u e a sin le

Bro d implementation by electrotec nical in u try organization wi res lt in:

• material declaration data b in avai a le as a con ition to sel to the eletrotec nical

• improvement of data q al ty, red ction of compl an e costs an el mination of

an develo ers ta le

IEC 6 4 4 sp cifies that only s bstan es that remain in the prod ct may b declared in the

material declaration fi e IEC 6 4 4 also req ires that man facturin c emicals that re ct,

form other c emicals or otherwise do not remain in the prod ct are not to b in lu ed For

example, f or a resin an a hardener that are u ed to form ep x in a prod ct, the final e ox

s bstan e s ould b declared if it is a declara le s bstan e or as a volu tary declaration The

in ivid al resin an hardener c emical could b declared only if a resid al amount of these

c emicals remained in the prod ct

The rec rsive nature of prod ct p rts (s own in Fig re 2 a ove with the ar ow b c to prod ct

p rts), al ows the u ers flexibi ty to re ort multiple levels within a produ t’s “Bi of Materials”

(BOM) s c that u ers are not ju t l mited to only one p rt level u der the prod ct For

example, one can declare a p rsonal computer (prod ct with a mother b ard (prod ct p rt 1)

at ribute to b come not a plca le u der certain con ition an therefore it may not b u ed

For example, the “identifier” at ribute within the Prod ctID clas is l sted with a con itional

o l gation If the Prod ctID is u ed to identify the prod ct at the to of the material declaration

hierarc y, then the identifier information is man atory an mu t b provided by the u er in the

material declaration However, if the Prod ctID is u ed in declarin a prod ct p rt that is

lower in the declaration hierarc y, this identif ier inf ormation is o tional

There are a few other data elements an atributes that are also l sted with a con itional

o l gation The Mas , Mas Percent, an MatMas Percent elements have p rtic larly complex

con itional provision that mu t b careful y reviewed to en ure cor ect implementation

4.1.3 Guida c on us of ma s a d ma s perc nt fields

IEC 6 4 4 sp cif ies that a declaration is req ired to re ort either mas or mas p rcent, but

not b th This is imp rtant for data q al ty purp ses as only one data field is varia le an the

secon data field is a calc lated value

If b th the mas p rcent an the mas are declared, but d e to er ors the calc lation do s not

cor esp n to the re orted mas , then the receiver of the material declaration wi not k ow

whic n mb r is the cor ect one to u e

A general rule of th mb is to re ort u in mas p rcent when re ortin prod ct fami es (e.g

ICs, resistors, ca acitors, etc) whic contain multiple prod cts in one declaration, but to u e

mas when re ortin as embl es or finis ed go d when a sin le prod ct is declared

Re ortin con entration (mas p rcent f or prod ct fami es provides s ficient data f or the

receiver of the declaration to cor ectly calc late the mas of e c prod ct in the fami y in their

IT sof tware s stem to ls, whi e stre mlnin the n mb r of material declaration to b

ex han ed b twe n the two comp nies

4.1.4 Calc lating ma s perc nt

In the material declaration, either mas or mas p rcent for the s bstan e, s bstan e group,

material or prod ct p rt can b u ed

Man la oratories re ort con entration in p m One p m me n 1 p rt in 1 0 0 0 0 l ke

p rts, s c as grams to gram b sis p m is converted to mas p rcent for s c cases by the

f ormula Mas p rcent = X p m / 10 0 0

Se Ta le 1 f or con ersion fom p m to mas p rcent

Table 1 – Conv rsion table from p m to ma s perc nt

With one ju tified ex e tion, mas p rcent is alway refer in to the next hig er level in the

prod ct hierarc y that is declared This me n that mas p rcent wi ref er to the material,

prod ct p rt or prod ct The ex eption is that if a s bstan e is as ig ed to a s bstan e group

in the declaration (se IEC 6 4 4:2 12, 4.2.3 a), 4.3.4 a) an 4.3.5 a) , the mas percent

refers to material (if declared), prod ct p rt (if declared) or to the prod ct The mas p rcent

of a s bstan e is never calc lated b sed on the mas of the s bstan e group Declarin a

s bstan e as a mas p rcent of the s bstan e group can cau e er ors an therefore it is not

al owed in IEC 6 4 4 This is stated in the relevant req irements in luded in IEC 6 4 4:2 12,

4.2.3 c), 4.3.4 c) an 4.3.5 c)

This deviation f om the generic rule en ures that the recipient of a material declaration is a le

to interpret the data cor ectly u der any combination of b se an o tional re ortin This is

neces ary to co e with situation where a declara le s bstan e group has a re ortin

req irement that is b sed on materials (e.g homogene u material) The situation is f urther

compl cated when only a p rt of the comp u d (e.g the le d in le d/le d comp u d ) is to b

declared As some s bstan es within the s bstan e group may b u k own, the inf ormation

on p rcentage of the declared s bstan es within the s bstan e group can ot b

u ambig ou ly cor elated to the man atory material mas p rcent declaration, an as a

con eq en e a further tran fer of this inf ormation would not b of u e

As a con eq en e, the declaration of mas p rcent of a s bstan e within a s bstan e group

is not al owed in IEC 6 4 4 To sec re that the volu tari y provided declaration of a

s bstan e is u ef ul f or any fol ow-up declaration , its mas or mas p rcent of the material (if

declared), prod ct p rt (if declared) or prod ct is ne ded

To con ert f om mas to mas p rcent, one divides the mas of the s bstan e or s bstan e

group by the mas of the prod ct, prod ct p rt or material an then con erts to p rcent

Mas p rcent = mas of s bstan e/mas of prod ct, p rt or material × 10 p rcent

The only time the MatMas Percent data field is u ed in the XML fie is when the IEC 6 4 4

data ase has a man atory re ortin thres old at the material level For al other in tan es,

either the Mas or the Mas Percent data f ield s ould b u ed in the XML fi e

4.1.5 Interpretation of reportin thre hold f or de larable s bsta c s a d de larable

s bsta c groups

For most of the declara le s bstan e an declara le s bstan e group entries in the

IEC 6 4 4 data ase, the re ortin thres old is b sed on the mas p rcent of the prod ct

This is re resented by a re ortin thres old that is l sted as "0,1 mas p rcent" The

referen e to the mas of the prod ct that is declared is impl ed in this thres old However,

there are declara le s bstan es an declara le s bstan e groups that have a re ortin

thres old with a dif ferent calc lation b sis The EU RoHS declara le s bstan e groups are

examples that u e the mas of the homogene u material as the b sis f or calc lation If the

re ortin thres old ref ers to somethin other than the prod ct (s c as a material or a

prod ct p rt l ke a b t ery), this is in icated in the IEC 6 4 4 data ase

4.1.6 Guida c on de larin a s bsta c that belongs to two dif fere t s bsta c

groups

A material declaration that conf orms to IEC 6 4 4 req ires that a declared s bstan e with a

man atory re ortin req irement mu t b as ig ed to its resp ctive declara le s bstan e

group with a man atory re ortin req irement, if the declara le s bstan e group is declared

The req irement “s c s bstan es s al b as ig ed to the s bstan e group”is sp cified in

IEC 6 4 4:2 12, 4.2.3 a) an 4.3.4 a)

In most material declaration this is straig tforward However, sin e the esta ls ment of

IEC 6 4 4, several corner cases have emerged with a declara le s bstan e fitin into two

declara le s bstan e groups F r example, the REACH SVHC s bstan e “L ad s lf oc romate

yel ow” cre tes s c a situation The declara le s bstan e groups “L ad/L ad Comp u d ”

an “Chromium (VI) Comp u d ” are b th relevant "L ad/L ad Comp u d ” an “Chromium

(VI) Comp u d ” ne d to b declared if they are present at or a ove the re ortin thres old

f or e c homogenou material However, it is not p s ible in an XML f ile (by the desig of the

XML s hema) to as ig the same oc ur en e of “L ad s lfoc romate yelow” to b th

s bstan e groups simultane u ly even if the L ad s lfoc romate yel ow trig ered the

Interntio l Eletr ote nicl Com isio

declaration of b th declara le s bstan e groups Re ortin this oc ur en e u der b th

L ad/L ad Comp u d ” an “Chromium (VI) Comp u d ” would in or ectly double the total

amou t of L ad s lfoc romate yel ow an s ould b avoided, to

Several p s ibi ties arise f or as ig in the s bstan e group in s c situation In the case of

L ad s lf oc romate yel ow, the resp n er (s p l er f il n out the material declaration) ne d

Otherwise the declaration do s not fulf il the req irements of IEC 6 4 4 There are two
