December 1, primary and secondary school students often use rackets, skipping ropes and other sporting goods by the CCTV news ‘Weekly Quality Report’ column exposed plasticiser exceeds the limit, some samples of plasticiser content even exceeded the reference standard limit value of more than 200 times; the report also mentioned that a large number of experiments have shown that prolonged excessive exposure to plasticisers will interfere with the human body's endocrine disruption, affecting the youth's reproductive health and growth and development.

Plasticisers are a class of commonly used plastic additives, the main role of which is to increase the softness, ductility and processability of plastic materials.The earliest report on plasticisers can be traced back to the plasticiser food safety incident in Taiwan in 2011, which brought plasticisers into the public eye and received widespread attention.

China's market supervision departments at all levels have conducted spot checks on children's shoes, children's toys, baby products and other commodities, and ‘phthalate esters (a major category of plasticisers) are unqualified’ is particularly common. Market supervision departments in many places have also detected excessive phthalates in pen bags, erasers, compasses, correction tapes, balance bikes and other products; some online toys due to the lack of appropriate standards and effective supervision, the same plasticiser exceeds the standard; PVC cling film and other food packaging materials will also have plasticiser exceeds the risk.

It is understood that China's regulatory requirements in the field of plasticisers are basically consistent with the developed countries, but the implementation of the production side of the landing has to be improved, especially the unlicensed operation of the small workshop is the abuse of plasticisers ‘disaster area’.

Relevant experts suggest that do not buy the material is too soft products, do not recommend the purchase of colour is too bright and pattern is too rich products; as far as possible in the regular commodity channels to buy big brands of goods as well as contact with the relevant items in a timely manner after washing their hands, can effectively reduce the harm caused by plasticisers on the human body.
