This European Standard specifies the requirements and test methods for N-nitrosamines and N-nitrosatable substances for: toys and parts of toys made from elastomers and intended for use by children under 36months; toys and parts of toys made from elastomers and intended to be placed in the mouth; finger paints for children under 36months. EXAMPLE Examples of toys made from elastomers are balloons and teethers. NOTE With regard to elastomers, up to now N-nitrosamines and N-nitrosatable substances have mainly been detected in vulcanized materials.
