The detailed new CPSC regulation, called the 1112 Rule, approving HDXRF for lead in substrate testing and restating the agency’s April 2011 approval of HDXRF for lead in paint testing, can be accessed at www.cpsc.gov.
HDXRF analyzers measure lead in paint well below the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) limit of 90 parts per million (ppm) for coatings and 100 ppm for substrate materials (including plastics, metals and glass) in children’s products and other consumer goods subject to these strict regulations.
