Cеминар-тренинг «Общественные кампании в области химической безопасности и отходов» 23-24 ноября 2012

1. Поливинилхлорид (ПВХ) с точки
зрения его влияния на окружающую
среду
«Химические вещества вокруг нас»
Минск, 24 ноября 2012
RNDr. Йиндрих Петрлик
Арника – Программа по токсическим
веществам и отходам

2. ПВХ –
жизнен-
ный
цикл

3. Использование ПВХ

4. Use of PVC for windows frame
 Frames of different materials have been
assessed on the basis of their production,
energy consumption and environmental
impacts.
 The investigation shows that
aluminium and PVC frames exhibit
large amounts of
environmental burdens. Accelerated
ageing tests have been carried out to test
the
durability of windows against weathering
impacts. These tests show that
aluminium clad timber windows are
comparatively least affected by
environmental impacts.

5. Use of PVC for windows frame

6. Использование ПВХ
Hard PVC (water/sewer
tubes, window frames,
doors, profiles, boards)
Soft/elastic PVC
(flooring, electrical cables,
wrap, vessels, toys, health
care devices, protecting
gloves, wallpapers,
shoes, artificial leather,
rain coats etc. ….)

7. Как узнать ПВХ?

8. ПВХ и токсические вещества

9. PVC - Common Additives
 Anti-oxidants – stop degradation from presence of oxygen
 Anti-static agents – avoid buildup of static electrical charge
 Catalysts – in polymerizing process
 Chemical blowing agents – create foamed products
 Flame retardants
 Heat stabilizers – slows polymer breakdown (degradation)
 Impact modifiers and processing aids
-- impact modifiers: increase resistance to stress
-- processing aids: increase melting rate of resin
 Lubricants –prevent resin from sticking to production equip.
 Plasticizers – softening agents
 Ultraviolet light stabilizers

10. Phthalates
Phthalates – used as plasticizers – not binded in
PVC - can release from plastic
(e.g. phthalates, adipates)
Phthalates
Group of 40 chemicals, 6 most hazardous
chemicals prohibited to use in toys and/or
childcare products and cosmetics (DEHP, DBP,
BBP, DIDP, DINP, DNOP)
Negative impacts: reproductive health, endocrine
disruptors, kidneys, liver, lungs, asthma, alergies

11. Don‘t Play With PVC - campaign
 Todecrease the use of
 The
Goals of the
PVC in all uses, where
campaign: safer alternatives exist
especially when PVC is
used
1) In toys and
child care
products
2) as food
packaging and
3) in health care

13. PVC campaign elements
 Toys and food packaging analyses for
phthalates
 Cooperation with: Mother‘s centers,
kindergardens, hospitals, local authorities
on replacement / phase out of PVC / PVC
audits, PVC free coalition
 Round tables with food industry,
supermarkets etc.
 Poles in front of the supermarkets

14. PVC campaign elements
 Raising awareness campaign: lectures,
articles in journals, information stands,
traveling exhibition, petition, info-fact
sheets, fact sheets for informed
professionals / high school students
 Press conferences
 Poster campaign

15. Analyses of PVC products
(flooring, wallpapers)
