RoHS, its full name is "the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment", that is, the directive to restrict the use of certain hazardous substances in electronic and electrical equipment. It is a mandatory directive made by EU legislation.

Lead (PB) 0.1%
Mercury (Hg) 0.1%
Cadmium (CD) 0.01%
Hexavalent chromium (CR VI) 0.1%
Polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) 0.1%
Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE) 0.1%
Di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) 0.1%
Toluene butyl phthalate (BBP) 0.1%
Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) 0.1%
