On December 17, 2014, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) voted 3-2 to approve for publication and public comment a proposed new regulation that would lift the existing ban of some phthalates, while imposing a new ban on other phthalates in toys and child care articles.

	Scope	Substances	Limit （per phthalates ）
Current Phtnalates ristriction in CPSIA	children’s toyor child care article	Permanent ban： DEHP、DBP、BBP	0.1%
	children’s toy that can be placed in a child’s mouth or child care article	Interim ban： DINP、DIDP、DNOP	0.1%
Proposed ristriction	children’s toyor child care article	Permanent ban： DEHP、DBP、BBP、DINP、DIBP、DPENP、DHEXP、DCHP	0.1%

The proposed new rule would continue the “permanent ban” (limit of 1,000 parts-per-million [0.1%] in accessible plasticized components of such products) of DEHP, DBP and BBP; would lift the current “interim” ban on DIDP and DnOP but continue permanently the ban on DINP; and would impose a new ban on DIBP, DPENP, DHEXP and DCHP in excess of 1,000 ppm.
