China-Consultation on the Catalogue of Hazardous Chemicals (2015). | regulatory trends

Specific Q: Hello, regarding the Catalogue of Hazardous Chemicals (2015), I would like to consult the following questions: 1. If a material contains 81 hazard categories with higher risk in the "Catalogue of Hazardous Chemicals (2015)", but the component content is not in the 2828 listed items, does this material belong to hazardous chemicals? 2. Radioactive substances such as uranium-235, plutonium hexafluoride, generally meet health hazards such as carcinogenicity, as well as viruses like COVID-19, why are they not included in the Catalogue of Hazardous Chemicals? 3. All solids, liquids, and gases are composed of chemicals, and the Catalogue of Hazardous Chemicals (2015) also contains mixtures, why are items like lithium batteries not in the catalog?

A: 1. According to the "Implementation Guide for the Catalogue of Hazardous Chemicals (2015) (Trial)", chemicals that meet the principles for determining hazardous chemicals but are not included in the "Catalog" should be registered as hazardous chemicals by enterprises in accordance with the "Measures for the Administration of Registration of Hazardous Chemicals", but they do not need to go through the relevant safety administrative licensing procedures. Enterprises should manage them as hazardous chemicals. 2. Radioactive substances are regulated by specific regulations and are not within the scope of hazardous chemicals regulation. 3. Substances listed in the "Catalog" do not consider goods such as lithium batteries, but will focus on battery fluids.
