| | mechanical stressing (testing) | Explanation:
I think they are using the term work-up to mean testing, as this is tied to EU regulations for the use of platistic and other materials.
The "high (mechanical) energy" would then refer to the a strong or forceful testing of the material AND "substances bound in materials and/or article" would refer to the material being tested.
THIS WEBSITE spells it out a bit more:
"High mechanical work up of massive
metals, substances bound in materials or
articles (PROC 24).
Disperse indoor use of articles with
high release (ERC 10B)
Substantial thermal or kinetic energy applied to
substance by grinding, mechanical cutting,
drilling or sanding. Release of solids (dust) or
fumes to be expected. Fall-out to be disposed
of as waste"
