  • FEICA leaflet notification of polymers (French).pdf

    Uploaded March 09, 2022

    Defining a system for the notification of polymers (FRENCH, in cooperation with AFICAM and DETIC)

    This is the French translation of the original English leaflet which can be consulted here.

    The European Commission is working to extend registration requirements for polymers, currently exempted from registration under EU REACH. The Commission is considering requesting industry to notify of certain polymers’ information.

    This FEICA leaflet explains why the notification of polymers should be limited to a concise dataset and analytical or test data should not be required at the notification stage.

    FEICA comments on the degradation of polyesters

    Polymers of relevant toxicological or ecotoxicological properties will be subject to registration as foreseen under a new REACH amendment. Polymers without such hazards will be exempt from registration obligation (Polymers of Low Concern [PLC] concept). One such exemption is the so-called ’Polyester Exemption‘, under which certain polyesters manufactured from predefined monomers will not require registration. This FEICA paper intends to address the Polyester Exemption and will also provide some background on the degradation of polyesters.

    FEICA comments after sixth CASG polymers meeting

    During the sixth CARACAL Subgroup polymers meeting held on 15 December 2021, the planned impact assessment for the registration of polymers to be commissioned by the European Commission was discussed. FEICA submitted to CIRCABC a paper on the impact of the proposed changes to the molecular weight criteria for the polymers of low concern (PLC) definition and the impact of an exemption for polymeric precursors linked to strictly controlled conditions. This paper covers FEICA comments after sixth CASG polymers meeting.

    FEICA response after the 5th CARACAL Polymers meeting

    The European Commission is working on a proposal to extend registration requirements to polymers (currently exempted) under REACH. The FEICA polymers task force is very active on the topic, being represented in the CARACAL polymers subgroup (CASG polymers) with two seats.

    This paper includes FEICA’s comments from the 5th CASG polymers meeting which was held on 20 October 2021. It discusses the polyesters exemption, the definition of polymers of low concern, the polymeric precursors exemption, the grouping of polymers and the notification of polymers.
