Plastic Standards and Additives
New regulations are constantly being enacted to protect consumers from a variety of potentially dangerous materials, compounds, and elements. Recent global regulations have restricted levels of heavy metals, and other contaminants in consumer products and waste electronics. Regulations have also been enacted to control a variety of phthalates in children’s products. Chiron is the first to introduce microplastics reference materials suitable for advanced analytical techniques for this new field of study.
We have continued to lead the reference materials field by creating a line of plastic and plastic additive standards crafted with an eye on new testing regulations.
