What are the international standards for accessory products
This standard applies to adult jewellery, which means jewellery designed or intended primarily for use by consumers over the age of 12. The standard covers requirements for specified elements and certain mechanical hazards. This does not cover all hazards and performance or quality tests.
Summary of chemical requirements
Lead content
Accessible materials must meet the following total lead content requirements:
- Electroplated metal with suitable primer and topcoat: 6.0%
- Non-plated metal: 1.5%
- Plastics, including rubber: 200 ppm
- All other materials: 600 ppm
- Surface coating: 600 ppm
Materials excluded from testing:
- Materials listed in 16 CFR1500.91 (e.g., stainless steel or surgical steel; Precious metals such as gold and pure
Silver; Pearl; Precious stones like diamonds; Glass, ceramics and crystals; Certain semi-precious stones; Timber; Paper or other
Cellulose fibers; Fabric, elastic, rope; Natural materials such as shells and feathers; And adhesives).
- Parts or "found" objects incorporated into jewellery that have changed their purpose, such as silver or tin
Pewter ware, bottle caps and buttons.
Body-Piercing Materials must fall under one of the following approved materials:
Stainless steel for surgical implantation
Surgical grade titanium
Niobium
Full 14K (karat) or white gold with higher gold content or nickel free gold
Solid platinum
Dense low-porosity plastics, including but not limited to polyethylene (Tygon) or polytetrad if lead is not intentionally added to the material
Polytetrafluoroethylene
Heavy metals in surface coatings
Each surface coating (10 mg or more on its product) shall comply with the solubility limits set out below. The soluble test side
The method is equivalent to the soluble methods listed in ASTM F963-11 and EN 71:3 toy standards.
- 60 ppm Antimony
- 25 ppm Arsenic
- 1000 ppm Barium (Barium)
- 75 ppm cadmium
- 60 ppm Chromium
- 60 ppm Mercury
- 500 ppm Selenium
Cadmium content in some base materials
Accessible metal and plastic/polymer parts that meet the total cadmium screening limit of 1.5% do not need to be further accepted for migration
(migratable) Cadmium content test.
Exceed the 1.5% screening limit and can fit into small parts cylinder (as
The metal and plastic parts of 16 CFR 1501 must meet the following requirements:
- Solubility in plastic/polymer materials when tested using the 2-hour test method set out in EN 71:3
Cadmium content must not exceed 75 ppm.
- When tested according to the 24-hour test method set out in CPSC-CH-E1004-11, in metal materials
Soluble cadmium content shall not exceed 200 micrograms (μg).
Metal and plastic parts can be placed in the inlet (not in the small parts cylinder, but one side is less than 5 cm in length).
- When testing using the 6-hour saline test method, the soluble cadmium content must not exceed 18 micrograms.
Nickel content of metal parts
Jewelry on the market that claims to have taken into account the safety of adults who are sensitive to nickel, or that ensures the release of nickel's potential in the metal
Limited, the jewellery should be based on a reasonable and representative test or composition assessment.
Parts for injecting liquid
Jewelry must not contain liquids listed in 16 CFR1500.14 that must be specially labeled.
Mechanical requirement
Hazard magnet
Jewelry containing dangerous magnets (flux index greater than 50 and can be placed in 16 CFR1501)
(in the cylinder of a small part) shall contain a warning statement of the following or substantially the same wording:
- Warning. Contains magnets. Long-term wear can form holes in human tissue. Swallowing or inhaling magnets can adsorb and squeeze
Intestinal tract or other human tissue, causing serious injury or even death. If swallowed or inhaled, seek medical attention immediately.
(WARNING. Contains magnets. Prolonged wearing can form a hole in body
tissue. Swallowed or inhaled magnets can attract through and squeeze intestines
or other body tissue, causing serious injury or death. Seek immediate medical
attention if swallowed or inhaled.)
Consideration should be given to additional warnings about the dangers of magnetic fields, mentioning that magnetic fields can affect pacemakers or
Other implantable electronic medical device functions.
Jewelry with batteries inside
The battery (" 16 CFR1501 ") that can be placed in the small part cylinder in the jewelry can only be penetrated, taking into account the risk of swallowing and inhalation
Contact with a coin, screwdriver or other common household appliance in the form of opening.
A tongue ring fixed by adsorption
A warning statement of the following or substantially the same wording is required:
- Warning. Choking hazard. Keep away from children.
