Registry of CLH intentions until outcome

The registry of classification and labelling (CLH) intentions until outcome lists the intentions and proposals received by ECHA for a new or revised harmonised classification and labelling of a substance. The proposals are submitted by Member State competent authorities, manufacturers, importers or downstream users.  

Interested parties can follow the progress of a proposal through the CLH process, from the notification of the intention to the adoption of the opinion of the Committee for Risk Assessment (RAC). The advance notice enables interested parties to plan and prepare for commenting later on.

Anyone with relevant information on the identity or hazard properties of a substance is encouraged to provide this information to the dossier submitter during the early stages of the process, or at the latest during the consultation.

Where an opinion has been adopted by RAC, the status is indicated as ‘Opinion Adopted’.

Note: The classification tables for those substances that have been reviewed are listed in the ‘Corrigenda to the RAC opinions’ document.

boric acid [1]; diboron trioxide [2]; tetraboron disodium heptaoxide, hydrate [3]; disodium tetraborate, anhydrous [4]; orthoboric acid sodium salt [5]; disodium tetraborate decahydrate [6]; disodium tetraborate pentahydrate [7]

Harmonised classification at the time of the proposal
Repr. 1B, H360FD
Specific concentration limits at the time of the proposal
A proposal for a revised harmonised classification of boric acid submitted in September 2013 did not include a revision of the SCL and the concentration limit was therefore not addressed in detail by the RAC. However, in the opinion for boric acid the RAC notes that the SCL of 5.5% was derived by using the “German method” and that the GCL of 0.3% would apply for boric acid if the CLP guidance available at the time (version 4.0 - November 2013) had been used. The current proposal will adapt the SCLs (ranging from 3.1% to 8.5 % w/w) to GCLs for boric acid and 6 borates (0.3%).
