ABSTRACT

The aim of this article is to update the restrictions on the presence in Europe of substances toxic to humans, animals and the environment according to regulations by the European Chemicals Agency, the European Parliament and the Montreal Protocol. The following compounds are considered and analysed: one- and two-carbon chlorinated compounds, mercury, cadmium and lead compounds, phthalates, formaldehyde, polymer micro-particles and additives of PVC. The increasing and continuous dissemination of these restrictions exalts the positive side of Chemistry and depresses its negative side.
