basic introduction
Phthalates, also known as phthalates, abbreviated PAEs, are the general term for esters formed from phthalic acid. (In short, it is a kind of plasticizer) When used as a plastic plasticizer, it generally refers to an ester of phthalic acid and a 4-15 carbon alcohol. Among them, dioctyl phthalate is the most important variety. Phthalates are a class of chemicals that can soften and interfere with the endocrine system.
Phthalates are mainly used in polyvinyl chloride materials, making polyvinyl chloride change from hard plastic to elastic plastic, which acts as a plasticizer. It is widely used in hundreds of kinds of toys, food packaging materials, medical blood bags and hoses, vinyl floors and wallpapers, cleaners, lubricants, personal care products (such as nail polish, hair sprays, soaps and shampoos). Among the products, in recent years, the environmental health hazards caused by such compounds have received widespread attention in the fields of environmental science, public health, the media, and even the general public.
On October 27, 2017, the preliminary list of carcinogens published by the International Agency for Research on Cancer of the World Health Organization, bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate was included in the list of category 2B carcinogens.
Phthalates hazard
Studies have shown that phthalates play a similar role to female hormones in humans and animals, which can interfere with endocrine, reduce the amount of men's semen and sperm, reduce sperm motility, abnormal sperm morphology, and severely cause testicular cancer. It is the "culprit" causing male reproductive problems.
Nail polish has the highest phthalate content in cosmetics, and many cosmetic fragrances also contain this substance. This substance in cosmetics will enter the body through the women's respiratory system and skin. If it is used too much, it will increase the chance of women suffering from breast cancer and will harm the reproductive system of the baby boy they will have in the future.

Our advantage
1. With a professional qualification and experienced expert technical team, we can provide you with professional consultation and services.
2. Have advanced laboratory equipment to ensure the accuracy and reliability of test data.
3. As a third-party testing and certification organization trusted by customers worldwide, we are your certificate of quality.
SRRC certification is one of the necessary conditions for products to enter the Chinese market for sale. It ensures that the wireless transmission characteristics of the wireless camera comply with national standards, avoiding communication problems caused by radio interference and ensuring the legality and compliance of the product.
FCC certification is a mandatory requirement for wireless device certification in the US market. Through FCC ID certification, wireless microphones can prove their compliance with US radio transmission standards, avoiding market bans or fines for violations. This is particularly important for products that hope to be sold in the US market.
KC certification ensures that products comply with relevant laws, regulations, and safety standards in South Korea, and is a necessary condition for smart door lock products to enter the South Korean market. KC certification covers wireless radio frequency, electromagnetic compatibility, and electromagnetic exposure. Strict testing and evaluation are required to obtain KC certification before products can be legally sold in the Korean market and gain consumer trust.
