This document specifies requirements for formamide in foam toy materials and a test method for determining the content of formamide in foam toy materials. This document is applicable to toys intended for use by children under 36 month or other toys intended to be placed in the mouth. NOTE 1 The document provides a test method to determine if the total content of formamide in foam toy materials is below the 200 mg/kg cut-off limit. Foam toy materials exceeding this limit are subject to the emission limit specified in Appendix C to Annex II to Directive 2009/48/EC. NOTE 2 The European Commission Guidance Document No 11 on the Application of Directive 2009/48/EC on the Safety of Toys [3] provides guidelines to help on the classification of toys intended for children under 36 months of age or of 36 months and over.
