Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Justification for classification or non-classification

Acute oral toxicity to rat was conducted for the target substance and the LD50 was found to be greater than 30 g/kg bw. Mortality was observed at lower dose but was regarded as not dose-related.

The hydrolysis product isostearic acid has LD50 (rat) greater than 32ml/kg (appox. 28.8 g/kg) (CIR, 1983) and is therefore non-toxic.

TiO2 was considered non-hazardous, based on the published data on EHCA C&L database. The lowest dose reported to produce any toxic effect in rats by oral route is determined to be 60 g/kg (US EPA, 1994).

Based on above findings, the target substance is considered not acute toxic and there is no need to classify the substance as acute oral toxic.
