Mercury in electronic components as part of electrotechnical products
Summary
The EU directive on «Restriction of Hazardous Substances» (RoHS) requires the testing of four regulated heavy metals (Pb, Hg, Cd, Cr(VI)) in electrotechnical products. After sample preparation according to IEC 62321 the determination of mercury in electronic components can be carried out by anodic stripping voltammetry (ASV) at a gold rotating disk electrode (Au-RDE).
