This European Standard specifies requirements and test methods for the substances and materials used in chemical toys (sets) other than experimental sets. These substances and mixtures are:

  • those classified as dangerous by the EC-legislation applying to dangerous substances and dangerous mixtures [5];

  • substances and mixtures which in excessive amounts could harm the health of the children using them and which are not classified as dangerous by the above mentioned legislation; and

  • any other chemical substance(s) and mixture(s) delivered with the chemical toy.

NOTE The terms ā€œsubstanceā€ and ā€œmixtureā€ are defined in the REACH regulation No. (EC)1907/2006 and in the CLP regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.

Additionally, requirements are specified for markings, warnings, safety rules, contents list, instructions for use and first aid information.

This Part of EN 71 applies to:

  • plaster of Paris (gypsum) moulding sets;

  • ceramic and vitreous enamelling materials supplied in miniature workshop sets;

  • oven-hardening plasticised PVC modelling clay sets;

  • plastic moulding sets;

  • embedding sets;

  • adhesives, paints, lacquers, varnishes, thinners and cleaning agents (solvents), supplied or recommended in model sets.
