Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Endpoint:
short-term repeated dose toxicity: inhalation
Data waiving:
exposure considerations
Justification for data waiving:
a short-term toxicity study does not need to be conducted because exposure of humans via inhalation in production and/or use is not likely as based on the provided thorough and rigorous exposure assessment
Justification for type of information:
In line with Column 2, point 8.6.1, Annex VIII of Regulation 1907/2006, a repeat-dose inhalation study does not need to be performed as the substance has low vapour pressure (0.0778 Pa at 20°C) so the potential for the generation of inhalable forms is low. The use of this substance should not result in aerosols, particles or droplets of an inhalable size, so exposure to humans in significant and unacceptable concentrations via the inhalatory route will be minimal, and a repeat-dose inhalation study is not required. As an objective of Regulation EC No. 1907/2006 is to reduce, replace or refine animal testing, based on the above information and information in this dossier, it can be reasonably expected that inhalation exposure is not expected and as such, it is not warranted to test the hypothesis in animals.
