Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

No consumer uses for which exposure or risk evaluation are required under REACH are included in this registration; consumer uses are regulated under the cosmetics directive (76/768/EEC; as amended).
However, the oral systemic effects, long-term DNEL has been derived for man via environment exposure assessment.
