Get used to recurring testing. Think AQL. Have you looked at RoHS re-castigated?

The manufacturer could change their adhesive without your knowledge. You would have to do lot sample testing of your production.

I would presume there is some % of total content that is allowed if one only knew what materials are in the adhesive. Not my area just asking for a panicked compatriot. He's looking for any means at the moment to clear this gap.
