However, this does not apply to substances used in ways that are not directly involved in the manufacturing process, including analysis, measurement, and product development. (n) Presence of Substances Contained (cf. List A Substances Contained 0:No 1:Yes) Please input "1", when at least one 42 chemistry substance is contained. Please input "0", when 42 chemistry substances are not contained. Next, please click an "input" button. Please input substance information on a chemistry substance Survey screen. Note: 42 chemistry substances. When you click on the Input List A substances column, a list of the 42 substances is displayed. 4

6 (o) Note Please fill that in about the item which cannot be indicated for the reasons of the trade secrets of the information about composition parts etc. (3) Chemical substances survey(2) It is investigation about the situation of the chemistry substance of fundamental information investigation. Please input in principle all the substances that constitute the object item. (a) Amount Contained Enter the amount of chemical substance contained per the unit set in item (h) Unit, in the Basic Information Survey.(Integer maximum size ten Decimal point ten and below enter it in milligrams and round off after the ten digit.) (b) Application The application is the component of the part that contains the chemical substance subject to the survey. Enter the name of the application containing the substance for which you indicated the amount contained in (a). For the name of the application, enter the name used in specifications and diagrams, your usual term, or the general name for the application. When the item covered by the survey is a single electronic part or other part, the component is the item recorded on the diagram of the part concerned or the composition materials list. E.g. 1) Ceramic material, internal electrode, or external electrode in a layered ceramic capacitor E.g. 2) Lead wire, electrolytic solution, sealing material, or electrode foil in electrolytic capacitors E.g. 3) Rubber contact points, springs, plastic covers for switches When the item covered by the survey is a machinery product or assembly electronic part, the usage part is the item recorded on the diagram of the part (product) concerned, or the parts list. E.g. Layered ceramic capacitor, electrolytic capacitor, printed circuit board, or solder for assembly (c) Purpose of Use Enter the purpose of use for the substance contained, and other reasons for using that substance, in simple terms. E.g. 1) Stabilizer, plasticizer, coloring, flame retardant, rust preventative, solder ingredient, etc. E.g. 2) Main ingredient, heat stability improvement, electrical characteristic improvement, mechanical characteristic improvement, etc. E.g. 3) Impurity (when it is clear that it was not intentionally added), etc. 5

7 4.Notes for Survey of Chemical Substances Contained (1) Concept of "Contained" In principle, when the substance was intentionally added or is clearly present, the substance is considered to be contained regardless of the amount. When the substance was not intentionally added it is treated as an impurity. You are asked to record all possible impurities that can be measured. (2) Calculation of Amount Contained Indicate the amount contained using the amount under control, or the theoretical, calculated, designed amount, or actually measured. When there is variation in the amount contained in a manufacturing lot, indicate the maximum amount, in principle. Furthermore, the calculation of the amount contained in a part applies to the amount of chemical substance contained in the purchased components or materials that make up the part, as well as the amount contained in the manufacturing process. Retracing the purchased ones for the amount back to its supplier, determine this and enter the results. (3) Amount Contained in Metals and their Compounds For the amounts contained for metals and their alloys, enter the figure calculated for the amount of metal element. Note 1: For the metal conversion coefficients for compounds that are not included on the Example Substance List, calculate after checking the atomic weight using a chemical substance handbook. E.g. 1: To find the amount of antimony contained for a component containing 100 mg of antimony trioxide (Sb2O3), multiply by the conversion coefficient Antimony amount = 100 mg = 83.5 mg Æ 84 mg (4) Chemical Substances used in Processes Do not include any solvents or washing solutions used in the manufacturing process when they do not remain in the product due to their volatility. However, in cases where substances from the Survey Substance List are intentionally used in the manufacturing process, be careful as many of them are non-volatile and may remain in the product. (5) When the same substance falls under more than one survey substance group,amounts contained for each group. e.g. If the article contains lead chromate, indicate the amount of lead and hexavalent chromium contained for both "Lead and its compounds" and "Chromium VI compounds. " 6

8 (6) Ozone-layer Depleting Substances There are two types of ozone depleting substance surveys: the survey of substances used in the manufacturing process, and the survey of substances contained in the product. Respond to the survey of substances used in the manufacturing process by referring to section 3. (1) (k) Use of Ozone-depleting Substances in Manufacturing Process, and respond to the survey of substances contained in the product by referring to section 3. (2) (a) Amount Contained. (7) Bromide Flame retardants (excluding PBBs and PBDEs) For the amounts contained in bromide Flame retardants (excluding PBBs and PBDEs) provide either the CAS No. or ISO code.if entering the ISO code, the CAS No. need not be provided. (8) Radioactive Substances If a radioactive substance has been intentionally added, indicate the radiation level (in becquerels (bq)) rather than the amount. 7

9 5.Input Rule (1) About the reserve 4 of investigated place information It is the item to set up in order that an surveyed company may discriminate the maker of an surveying company. Do not make entries or changes here. (2) About the parts number and parts name of Basic Information Survey When you fill in a part number or a part name, please be sure to fill both in. (3) About Composition information When there is entry in addition to the part number of basic information investigation, and part name, please be sure to fill in composition part and part weight. (4) About weight (content) The sum total value of investigation unit mass, part weight, and a chemistry substance content must be in agreement with the weight of a higher rank. part mass must be made into the sum total value of part weight 100% (coincidence). Part weight must be made into the sum total value of the contained substance 100% (coincidence). Note:Parts mass (10g) = Composition part weight sum total (10000mg) = chemistry substance content sum total (10000mg) Note:Parts mass is the "g" input. Part weight and a content are the "mg" inputs. (5) About cancellation of content chemistry substance investigation Even if it performs preservation (JGP output), when there is no input in fundamental information investigation and only the substance is written, contents chemistry substance information is not outputted. (6) New-line Please do not perform a new-line within a cell by all input items. 8
