Entry 68の追加

「Entry 68 パーフルオロオクタン酸およびその塩」はEU POPs規則を優先するということで削除されたばかりですが、パーフルオロオクタン酸より炭素数の多い「Entry 68　直鎖、分岐鎖パーフルオロカルボン酸（CnF2n+1COOH、n=8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 (C9-C14 PFCAs))とその塩およびその組み合わせを含む」という形で置き換えられました。（パーフルオロオクタン酸はC7F15COOH)

Entry 68

以下、欧州委員会の官報より

Linear and branched perfluorocarboxylic acids of the formula CnF2n +1-C(= O)OH where n = 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, or 13 (C9-C14 PFCAs), including their salts, and any combinations thereof;

Any C9-C14 PFCA-related substance having a perfluoro group with the formula CnF2n +1- directly attached to another carbon atom, where n = 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, or 13, including their salts and any combinations thereof;

Any C9-C14 PFCA-related substance having a perfluoro group with the formula CnF2n +1- that it is not directly attached to another carbon atom, where n = 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 or 14 as one of the structural elements, including their salts and any combinations thereof.

The following substances are excluded from this designation
- CnF2n +1-X, where X = F, Cl, or Br
where n = 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 or 14, including any combinations thereof,
- CnF2n +1-C(= O)OX' where n> 13 and X'=any group, including salts.

Conditions of restriction（制限条件）

1.Shall not be manufactured, or placed on the market as substances on their own from 25 February 2023.

2. Shall not, from 25 February 2023, be used in, or placed on the market in:
(a) another substance, as a constituent;
(b) a mixture;
(c) an article,
except if the concentration in the substance, the mixture, or the article is below 25 ppb for the sum of C9-C14 PFCAs and their salts or 260 ppb for the sum of C9-C14 PFCA-related substances.

3. By way of derogation to paragraph 2, the concentration limit shall be 10 ppm for the sum of C9-C14 PFCAs, their salts and C9-C14 PFCA related substances, where they are present in a substance to be used as a transported isolated intermediate, provided that the conditions in points (a) to (f) of Article 18(4) of this Regulation are met for the manufacturing of fluorochemicals with a perfluoro carbon chain length equal to or shorter than6 atoms. The
Commission shall review this limit no later than 25 August 2023.

4. Paragraph 2 shall apply from 4 July 2023 to:
(i) textiles for oil- and water-repellency for the protection of workers from dangerous liquids that comprise risks to their health and safety;

(ii) the manufacture of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) for the production of:
- high performance, corrosion resistant gas filter membranes, water filter membranes
and membranes for medical textiles;
- industrial waste heat exchanger equipment;
- industrial sealants capable of preventing leakage of volatile organic compounds and PM 2,5 particulates

5.By way of derogation to paragraph 2, the use of C9-C14 PFCAs, their salts and C9-C14 PFCA-related substances shall be allowed until 4 July 2025 for:

(i) photolithography or etch processes in semiconductor manufacturing;

(ii) photographic coatings applied to films;

(iii) invasive and implantable medical devices;

(iv) fire-fighting foam for liquid fuel vapour suppression and liquid fuel fire (Class B fires) already installed in systems, including both mobile and fixed systems, subject to the following conditions:

- fire-fighting foam that contains or may contain C9-C14 PFCAs, their salts and C9-C14 PFCA-related substances shall not be used for training;
- fire-fighting foam that contains or may contain C9-C14 PFCAs, their salts and C9-C14 PFCA-related substances shall not be used for testing unless all releases are contained;
- from 1 January 2023, uses of fire-fighting foam that contains or may contain C9-C14 PFCAs, their salts and C9-C14 PFCA-related substances shall only be allowed to sites where all releases can be contained;
- fire-fighting foam stockpiles that contain or may contain C9-C14 PFCAs, their salts and C9-C14 PFCA-related substances shall be managed in accordance with Article 5 of Regulation (EU) 2019/1021.

6.Paragraph 2(c) shall not apply to articles placed on the market before 25 February 2023.

7.Paragraph 2 shall not apply to the can coating for pressurised metered-dose inhalers until 25 August 2028.

From 25 August 2024, the concentration limit shall be 100 ppb for the sum of C9-C14 PFCAs, in fluoroplastics and fluoroelastomers that contain perfluoroalkoxy groups. All emissions of C9-C14 PFCAs during the manufacture and use of fluoroplastics and fluoroelastomers that contain perfluoroalkoxy groups shall be avoided and, if not possible, reduced as far as technically and practically possible. This derogation shall not apply to articles referred to in paragraph 2(c). The Commission shall review this derogation no later than 25 August 2024.

11. The concentration limit referred to in paragraph 2 shall be 1 000 ppb for the sum of C9- C14 PFCAs, where these are present in PTFE micro powders produced by ionising irradiation or by thermal degradation, as well as in mixtures and articles for industrial and professional uses containing PTFE micro powders.
