Description of key information
Sunlight, air, heat, peroxides, radicals, mineral acids, bases catalyse polymerisation of acrolein. Therefore, acrolein is stabilized using hydroquinone to inhibite polymerisation.
Additional information
1. European Union Risk Assessment Report of Acrolein (EU, 2001)
Not reported.
2. Agreement with further international Reports and Studies published after finalisation of the EU Risk Assessment Report 2001
-
3. Substantial disagreements in comparison to further international Reports to European Union Risk Assessment Report 2001
-
4. Additional aspects in further international Reports
BUA-Report (1994): Sunlight, air, heat, peroxides, radicals, mineral acids, bases catalyse polymerisation of acrolein. Therefore, acrolein is stabilized using hydroquinone to inhibite polymerisation.
5. Additional information in newer Studies, not included in the European Union Risk Assessment Report 2001 or further cited international reports

6. Conclusions
Sunlight, air, heat, peroxides, radicals, mineral acids, bases catalyse polymerisation of acrolein. Therefore, acrolein is stabilized using hydroquinone to inhibite polymerisation.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
