Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

In accordance with Section 2 of REACH Annex XI, this study does not need to be conducted as testing is not technically possible. It is not possible to produce a powdered form of the substance suitable for testing as the powdered form is flammable.
Furthermore, samarium metal is highly insoluble in water - testing the bulk form of the material (as supplied) would not generate test solutions with a sufficient amount of dissolved metal ions. Testing with the registered substance was therefore omitted.

Additional information
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
