Calculating % of substance in an article
  • My company does not deal with chemicals per say, but we do sell “articles” into the EU. Those articles are made up of substances which in most part are not a SVHC. My question is this…. As I pull together the MSDSs of our products, I am trying to figure out how much of a particular substance is in that product. Even though they are not currently on the list of SVHCs…some day they maybe. Do you know of a somewhat simple formula that would help me calculate the % of the w/w of any substance in a article?
  • It depends on the article. And also you need to consider some 6 countries (inc. Germany and France) insist on the calculation has to be made according to every single component of the complex articles..


    As far as I know some firms (like SAP) have those kind of software that you can track these SVHCs.

Howdy, Stranger!
