John - I sent attached docs to RoHSUSA for John Burke to post there so
that all could access - you should receive the attachments here on this
email but the forum copy will have them stripped. The Norway 17 doc is
available on the WTO site - I sent a message several days ago saying how
to access it.
Regards,
Chris

Not just TBBPA but also BPA. FR4 epoxies are made from a mix of
typically 50-60% BPA and the rest TBBPA. These are theoretically reacted
with epichlorohydrin (or similar) in the prepolymer stage and this is
then crosslinked with DICY or other crosslinkers plus additives.
Theoretically, no free BPA or TBBPA remains in the finished product, but
the reactions are never 100% stoichiometric, especially where the epoxy
interfaces at a boundary. There will always be a small amount of free
BPA/TBBPA available at the surface of an epoxy resin. The question
therefore lies in the tolerable percentage that will be permissible. If
it is literally a total ban, then no consumer electronics containing FR4
or with a flame-retardant polycarbonate cover (ie, just about
everything) will be permitted.
