About these substances

Plain-language summary of each regulated substance found above, drawn from public regulatory data.

Cadmium and its compounds (CAS 7440-43-9)

Cadmium is a natural metal found in the earth's crust, often used in batteries, pigments, plastics, and jewelry. It can also appear as compounds like cadmium oxide, cadmium chloride, or cadmium sulfate. The European Union's REACH regulation lists cadmium and its compounds as substances of very high concern because they are carcinogens and can be toxic to organs with repeated exposure. This means cadmium is linked to an increased risk of cancer and can harm kidneys, bones, or lungs over time. Because of these risks, REACH restricts cadmium in jewelry, plastics, and brazing materials to limit human exposure. You might encounter cadmium in old batteries, some paints, or certain metal coatings. The goal of regulation is to reduce your contact with this metal, especially in everyday items. For more details, see the EU REACH SVHC Candidate List at https://echa.europa.eu/candidate-list-table. This summary draws on public regulatory data; the linked source is authoritative.

Cadmium (CAS 7440-43-9)

Cadmium is a naturally occurring metal that is used in batteries, pigments, coatings, and some fertilizers. It can also be found in cigarette smoke. Because cadmium can build up in the body over time, California's Proposition 65 program lists it as a chemical known to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. The "C" in the listing stands for cancer, "DM" for developmental and male reproductive toxicity, and "R" for female reproductive toxicity. This means that products containing cadmium must carry a warning label if they expose people to significant amounts. The regulation is based on scientific evidence that cadmium can harm the kidneys, bones, and lungs with long-term exposure. You can find the official list of these chemicals at the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) website: https://oehha.ca.gov/proposition-65/proposition-65-list.

Cadmium and cadmium compounds (CAS 7440-43-9)

Cadmium and cadmium compounds are naturally occurring metals found in the earth's crust. You might encounter them in rechargeable batteries, some pigments, coatings, and certain fertilizers. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classifies cadmium and its compounds as Group 1, meaning they are carcinogenic to humans. This classification is based on strong evidence from studies showing that exposure, especially through inhalation or ingestion, can increase the risk of lung cancer and other cancers. IARC's evaluation is part of its Monographs program, which reviews scientific data to identify cancer hazards. The agency does not say that everyone exposed will get cancer, but that the link is well-established. This summary draws on public regulatory data; the linked source is authoritative.

Cadmium (Cd) (CAS 7440-43-9)

Cadmium is a heavy metal that occurs naturally in the earth's crust and is often used in batteries, pigments, coatings, and electronics. It can be found in items like rechargeable nickel-cadmium batteries, solar panels, and some solders. The European Union restricts cadmium under the RoHS Directive because it is classified as a carcinogen and can be toxic to the kidneys with long-term exposure. The limit is set at 0.01% by weight in homogeneous materials. This means manufacturers must keep cadmium levels very low in most electronic products sold in the EU. The restriction helps reduce the risk of cadmium entering the environment or human bodies through discarded electronics.

Cadmium and its compounds (CAS 7440-43-9)

Cadmium is a naturally occurring metal that, along with its compounds, is banned from use in cosmetic products sold in the European Union. You might find it as an impurity in some pigments or as a contaminant in certain mineral-based ingredients, but it is not intentionally added to cosmetics. The reason for this strict ban is that cadmium can build up in the body over time, and the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classifies it as a Group 1 carcinogen, meaning it is known to cause cancer in humans. It can also harm the kidneys and bones with long-term exposure. Because cosmetics are applied to the skin and can be absorbed, regulators want to prevent any risk to your health. This ban is part of the EU Cosmetics Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009, which ensures that only safe ingredients are used in products like makeup, lotions, and soaps.

Cadmium and its compounds

Cadmium is a naturally occurring metal that is often combined with other elements to form compounds used in batteries, pigments, coatings, and plastics. You might find it in rechargeable batteries, some paints, or as a stabilizer in PVC products. The European Union restricts cadmium and its compounds under REACH Annex XVII because they can build up in the environment and in living things, posing long-term risks. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classifies cadmium as Group 1 (carcinogenic to humans), meaning it is linked to cancer in people. These restrictions limit how much cadmium can be used in consumer goods, especially in jewelry, plastics, and solders, to reduce exposure.
