Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information - General Population

No DNELs have been derived for general population as exposure does not occur during the lifecycle of the substance.

 

The substance is not used by consumers or professionals and only has manufacture, formulation and industrial uses.

 

The substance is used in the industrial processing of polymers, where it is added as a stabilizer and also as a catalyst/process regulator in the production of polyurethanes or silicones. During the processing of the polymer the substance will be completely used up and as a reactive catalyst the substance is destroyed in the production of polyurethanes or silicones. As such the substance does not exist in the products, therefore in-direct exposure of the general population via releases from the end products are not possible. Indirect exposure of the general population via releases to the environment is also not considered to occur, as the substance is only used in industrial settings where there will be effective waste management processes to prevent release.
