Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Workers - Hazard via inhalation route

Systemic effects

Long term exposure
Hazard assessment conclusion:
DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
Value:
2.2 mg/m³
Most sensitive endpoint:
repeated dose toxicity
Route of original study:
By inhalation
DNEL related information

NOAEC
Value:
55.2 mg/m³

Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

Modification factor: Time scaling is required to adjust for 6h/d exposure to 8h/d working condition. Exposures were for 5 days a week so no adjustment is needed.  In addition, worker ventilation rate needs to be accounted for.

55.2 mg/m3* (6h/d / 8 h/d) * (6.7m3/10m3) = 27.7 mg/m3

Workers - Hazard via dermal route

Systemic effects

Long term exposure

Value:
0.21 mg/kg bw/day
Most sensitive endpoint:
repeated dose toxicity
Route of original study:
By inhalation
DNEL related information
DNEL derivation method:
ECHA REACH Guidance
Overall assessment factor (AF):
50
Dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEC
Value:
55.2 mg/m³
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
8 mg/kg bw/day
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

Modification factor: A dose unit conversion factor (from inhalation to dermal for an 8 hour exposure; 0.38 m3/kg) was included. Time scaling is required to adjust for 6h/d exposure to 8h/d working condition. Exposures were for 5 days a week so no adjustment is needed.  In addition, worker ventilation rate needs to be accounted for.


55.2 mg/m3 * (6 h/d / 8 h/d) * 0.38m3/kg bw * (6.7 m3/10 m3) = 10.5 mg/kg bw

Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:
