Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reference
Name:
beryllium
Type of composition:
boundary composition of the substance
State / form:
solid: bulk
Reference substance:
beryllium
Contributing activity / technique for the environment
Name of activity / technique:
Foundry melting & casting: Beryllium-containing master alloys (2% beryllium max) are added to the molten copper in the furnace to introduce beryllium into the alloy, before it is cast in moulds. Further processing may occur to meet customer specifications.
