Overview#
The AD-DSL is the aerospace and defence sector's shared list of substances that should be declared in parts and materials. The International Aerospace Environmental Group, an industry body of aerospace and defence companies, maintains it and revises it periodically as regulations evolve.
How it fits the sector pattern#
Most regulated sectors keep a single agreed list of what to declare and a standard format to declare it in. The AD-DSL is the aerospace version of that list, and it pairs with the IPC-1754 declaration standard for reporting.
The declarable substance list for aerospace and defence.
How it relates#
It is one of the substance lists a declaration can be made against, and it carries the same intent as the other sector lists. Where it differs is scope, since it reflects the substances and regulations that matter most to aerospace and defence programmes.
