Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Justification for type of information:
The performance of a test for toxicity to birds is scientifically not justified. REACh Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, Annex X, Sect. 9.6.1, Col. 2, states as follows:
“Any need for testing should be carefully considered taking into account the large mammalian dataset that is usually available at this tonnage level.”

Direct and indirect exposure of soil and soil macroorganisms is practically negligible, as:
1) HAT-ISO is manufactured and formulated in closed systems. Thus, direct and indirect exposure of soil and soil macroorganisms during manufacturing and formulation is practically negligible.
2) Use of formulated HAT-ISO is also unlikely to result in direct and indirect exposure of soil and soil macroorganisms. During use HAT-ISO is included in three-dimensional matrices of polymeric, resinous material and completely retained.

Therefore, the direct and indirect release of HAT-ISO to soil and terrestrial organisms is practically negligible. Therefore, direct and indirect exposure of HAT-ISO to soil is highly unlikely and performance of a test for toxicity to terrestrial organisms is scientifically not justified. The Chemical Safety Assessment does not indicate the need to investigate toxicity to terrestrial organisms further. Moreover, there is comprehensive data on vertebrate toxicity available with the registered substance. Therefore, further testing would not be in line with animal welfare reasons. For more details on exposure assessment see risk assessment report in section 13.
