Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2019/170 of 16 November 2018 amending, for the purposes of adapting to scientific and technical progress, Annex III to Directive 2011/65/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards an exemption for lead in PZT based dielectric ceramic materials for certain capacitors (Text with EEA relevance.) · European Union

(6) A complete substitution or elimination of lead in such capacitors is still scientifically and technically impracticable due to the lack of reliable substitutes. The exemption does not weaken the environmental and health protection afforded by Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) and establishing a European Chemicals Agency (OJ L 396, 30.12.2006, p. 1). . The exemption for the use of lead in PZT based dielectric ceramic materials for capacitors which are part of integrated circuits or discrete semiconductors should therefore be renewed.
