유해물질 제한지침(Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive)은 유럽연합(EU)에서 시행되며 해로운 물질을 사용한 전자제품이나, 전기기기를 제한하는 지침이다. 일반적으로 RoHS(알오에이치에스)라고 적는다. 2003년 2월에 WEEE(Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment)에 의해 제정 공포되고 2006년 7월 1일 발효되어 카드뮴, 납, 수은, 6가 크롬, 브롬계 난연제(PBBs, PBDEs)의 사용이 금지되었다. 중국에서도 이와 비슷한 제도 RoHS(일명 China RoHS)를 시행을 하고 있어 유럽에서 정한 6가지 품목과 규제 대상이 아니지만, 과학기기나 의학장비도 중국의 RoHS에는 규제 대상에 포함되어 있다.

The purpose of this study is to examine Technology Trade of Korea China for Korea China FTA. For this purpose, to analysis the present condition of technology trade and Trade Specialization Index(TSI), Technical Barriers to Trade(TBT). The Technology trade of Korea China is the surplus Technology trade of Korea but reducing to surplus scale. Also as a result of TSI analysis, Chemistry, plastic, primary metal, Medical precision industry, basic materials industries have weakened the Korea. In addition to Technical Barriers to Trade of China is very complexity for example, China Compulsory Certificate(CCC), China RoHS, China REACH. Therefore the Policy Technology Trade of Kore against China have to the centerpiece of Korea Technology export drive to expand in China.

It is of importance that all countries in worldwide, including EU and China, have adopted the Restrictions on the use of certain Hazardous Substances (RoHS) for all electronics. IEC62321 document, which was published by the International Electronics Committee (IEC) can have conflicts with the standards in the market. On the contrary Publicly Accessible Specification (PAS) for sampling published by IEC TC111 can be adopted for complementary application. In this work, we tried to find a route to disassemble and disjoint cellular phone sample, based on PAS and compare the screening methods available in the market. For this work, the cellular phone produced in 2001, before the regulation was born, was chosen for better detection. Although X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) showed excellent performance for screening, fast and easy handling, it can give information on the surface, not the bulk, and have some limitations due to significant matrix interference and lack of variety of standards for quantification. It means that screening with XRF sometimes requires supplementary tool. There are several techniques available in the market of analytical instruments. Laser ablation (LA) ICP-MS, energy dispersive (ED) XRF and scanning electron microscope (SEM)-energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) were demonstrated for screening a cellular phone. For quantitative determination, graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GF-AAS) was employed. Experimental results for Pb in a battery showed large difference in analytical results in between XRF and GF-AAS, i.e., 0.92% and 5.67%, respectively. In addition, the standard deviation of XRF was extremely large in the range of 23-168%, compared with that in the range of 1.9-92.3% for LA-ICP-MS. In conclusion, GF-AAS was required for quantitative analysis although EDX was used for screening. In this work, it was proved that LA-ICP-MS can be used as a screening method for fast analysis to determine hazardous elements in electrical products.

These days the international environmental regulations of the developed countries, especially from the EU, are rapidly changed to the regulations of product-based environment from a conventional end-of-pipe environmental technology. Especially the motive in this paper come from the EU's electrical and electronic equipment environment regulation. It may affect much to whole export of Korea Firms Integrated product policy has the potential to increase not only competitive power in today's global market, but also trade compatibility between countries. Furthermore it is important to make a contribution to sustainable development. CEOs must change their notions about firms' environmental policy from the end-of-pipe approach to the sustainable approach to improve company's competitive power. As emphasized a paradigm of naw environmental management by EU' environmental directives, the company must establish clean production system to save resources and reduces pollutant. Also Korean Company constructs a systematical network to collect EU' environmental regulation information which are changing rapidly. Large company will cooperate with small and medium-sized firm for their win-win strategy in the field of environmental management. Also it is necessary to make the domestic regulations of product-based environment to meet the international environmental regulations.
