Waste removal
In our society, the question about ecological waste removal and the product recycling of every kind becomes more important day by day.
The embedded cadmium is used to stabilize the vinyl of waterbeds without any health hazard. The percentage is less than 68 ppm. Replacing the cadmium by using barium or zinc causes the percentage decreases the percentage to 20 ppm. Zinc and barium are worse stabilizers than cadmium which decreases the life expectancy because the material gets brittle. Nowadays thinner material is used to avoid the break of the material, but this might destroy the vinyl in the worst case. According to researches, vinyl can get torn by a strength of less than 0,5 mm and it is likely to break with more than 0,6 mm. However, cadmium can not be left out.
