Safety of toys - Part 3: Migration of certain elements
This European Standard specifies requirements and test methods for the migration of aluminium, antimony, arsenic, barium, boron, cadmium, chromium (III), chromium (VI), cobalt, copper, lead, manganese, mercury, nickel, selenium, strontium, tin, organic tin and zinc from toy materials and from parts of toys.
Packaging materials are not considered to be part of the toy unless they have intended play value.
NOTE 1 See guidance document of the European Commission guidance document no. 12 [2] on the application of the Directive on the safety of toys – packaging.
The standard contains requirements for the migration of certain elements from the following categories of toy materials:
— Category I: Dry, brittle, powder like or pliable materials;
— Category II: Liquid or sticky materials;
— Category III: Scraped-off materials.
The requirements of this standard do not apply to toys or parts of toys which, due to their accessibility, function, volume or mass, clearly exclude any hazard due to sucking, licking or swallowing or prolonged skin contact when the toy or part of toy is used as intended or in a foreseeable way, bearing in mind the behaviour of children.
NOTE 2 For the purposes of this standard, for the following toys and parts of toys the likelihood of sucking, licking or swallowing toys is considered significant (see H.2 and H.3):
— all toys intended to be put in the mouth or to the mouth, cosmetics toys and writing instruments categorized as toys can be considered to be sucked, licked or swallowed;
— all the accessible parts and components of toys intended for children up to 6 years of age can be considered to come into contact with the mouth. The likelihood of mouth contact with parts of toys intended for older children is not considered significant in most cases (see H.2).
Sicherheit von Spielzeug - Teil 3: Migration bestimmter Elemente
Diese Europäische Norm legt Anforderungen an und Prüfverfahren für die Migration von Aluminium, Antimon, Arsen, Barium, Bor, Cadmium, Chrom (III), Chrom (VI), Cobalt, Kupfer, Blei, Mangan, Quecksilber, Nickel, Selen, Strontium, Zinn, Organozinnverbindungen und Zink aus Spielzeugmaterialien und Spielzeugteilen fest.
Verpackungsmaterialien werden nicht als Teil des Spielzeugs angesehen, es sei denn, sie haben einen beabsichtigten Spielwert.
ANMERKUNG 1 Siehe hierzu Leitlinie Nr. 12 der Europäischen Kommission zur Anwendung der Richtlinie über die Sicherheit von Spielzeug — Verpackungen [2].
Diese Norm enthält Anforderungen an die Migration bestimmter Elemente aus den folgenden Kategorien von Spielzeugmaterialien:
— Kategorie I: Trockene, brüchige, staubförmige oder geschmeidige Materialien;
— Kategorie II: Flüssige oder haftende Materialien;
— Kategorie III: Abgeschabte Materialien.
Die Anforderungen dieser Norm gelten nicht für Spielzeug und Spielzeugbestandteile, die bei bestimmungs¬gemäßem oder vorhersehbarem Gebrauch und unter Berücksichtigung des Verhaltens von Kindern wegen ihrer/ihres Zugänglichkeit, Funktion, Volumens oder Masse jegliche Gefährdung durch Saugen, Lecken oder Verschlucken oder längeren Hautkontakt eindeutig ausschließen.
ANMERKUNG 2 Für die Zwecke dieser Norm wird für folgendes Spielzeug und Teile von Spielzeug die Wahrschein-lichkeit von Saugen, Lecken oder Verschlucken an/von Spielzeug als wesentlich angesehen (siehe H.2 und H.3):
— bei jedem Spielzeug, das dazu bestimmt ist, in oder an den Mund genommen zu werden, sowie bei Kosmetik-spielzeug und Schreibgeräten, die als Spielzeug eingestuft sind, kann davon ausgegangen werden, das sie gesaugt, geleckt oder verschluckt werden;
— bei allen zugänglichen Teilen und Bestandteilen von Spielzeug, das für Kinder bis zu 6 Jahren vorgesehen ist, kann von Mundkontakt ausgegangen werden. Die Wahrscheinlichkeit des Mundkontakts mit Teilen von Spielzeug, das für ältere Kinder vorgesehen ist, wird in den meisten Fällen als nicht signifikant angesehen (siehe H.2).

4.2 Specific requirements The migration of elements from toy materials categorized in accordance with 4.1 shall not exceed the migration limits given in Table 2 when tested in accordance with Clauses 7 and 8. SIST EN 71-3:2013+A3:2018
This requirement does not preclude the preparation of test portions which represent the material and any base material upon which it is deposited. If the total weight of available toy material is less than 10 mg test portions are disregarded (see H.5). The above does not preclude the possibility of testing toy materials before they are used to manufacture a toy in order to prove compliance of the final toy. In this case, it shall be assessed that the manufacturing process does not influence the migration of elements from the toy materials. 7.2 Standards preparation Prepare standard solutions covering a suitable working range appropriate to the required limits for each element for the three categories. Examples for ICP-MS and ICP-OES are included in Annex E. 7.3 Sample preparation 7.3.1 General A blank solution shall be determined for any bias. The analytical results shall be corrected for any bias due, for example, to contaminants present in the filter paper (6.2.6) or the gastric simulant. When there is a significant bias the method should be checked. 7.3.2 Category I: Dry, brittle, powder like or pliable and Category II: Liquid or sticky If possible obtain a test portion of not less than 100 mg of the material from the laboratory sample. If a test portion of 100 mg or more cannot be obtained, a test portion shall be obtained from each toy material present in the laboratory sample in a mass greater than 10 mg. If the weight of the test portion obtained is between 10 mg and 100 mg, that weight shall be reported (see Clause 10 h)). In this case the analytical results shall be calculated as though 100 mg of the test portion had been used (see H.5). If the toy material contains any grease, oil, wax or similar material, material shall be de-waxed. De-waxing shall not be carried out on test portions being analysed for organic tin. Dry a high retention filter paper (see 6.2.6) for 4 h at 37 °C ± 4°C. Weigh the filter paper to the nearest 0,1 mg (Wfp1). The filter paper used should be as small as possible without risking loss of the test portion during the de-waxing procedure. Weigh the test portion, to the nearest 0,1 mg, onto the pre-dried and weighed filter paper. Calculate the mass of the test portion. Use this mass for the calculation of the results of the test. Fold the filter paper carefully to enclose the test portion without loss. Extract the test portion within the filter paper with boiling n-heptane (6.2.5) using suitable laboratory apparatus. The use of a de-waxing step shall be reported (see Clause 10 h)). It has been shown that Soxhlet extraction with n-heptane for 6 h is usually sufficient to completely remove non-polar ingredients from waxy toy materials. Alternative methods should be validated to show that they are capable of completely removing the non-polar ingredients from relevant toy materials. SIST EN 71-3:2013+A3:2018
