Result(s) of Cr VI for metallic material(s) was (were) expressed in term of positive and negative. Negative means the absence of Cr VI on the tested areas and the result(s) was (were) regarded as in compliance with European Council Directive 2001/65/EU, Article 4(1). While, positive means the presence of Cr VI on tested areas and the result(s) was (were) regarded as in conflict with European Council Directive 2001/65/EU, Article 4(1).
Testing Approach [ Compliance Test for European Coun cil Directive 2011/65/EU ] :
The testing approach was with reference to the following document(s).
