DecaBDE-almost a year on
On 1 April 2008 The European Court of Justice issued a judgement ruling that from 30 June 2008 onwards DecaBDE shall be banned in all applications falling under the scope of RoHS.
The withdrawal of the RoHS exemption 9a namely "DecaBDE in polymeric applications" last year is a subject of much discussion, and I still receive many questions on the matter almost a year after the event.
