Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Administrative data

Description of key information

No dedicated studies are available for the evaluation of skin, eye, or respiratory tract irritation potential of the substance. However, during acute and repeated dose inhalation exposures with the substance, no signs of skin, eye, or respiratory irritation were observed. These studies include nose-only exposures for 4 hours in rats up to 102900 ppm (690413 mg/m3), whole-body exposures for 2 hours in rats up to 21000 ppm (140902 mg/m3), whole-body repeat exposures in rats and rabbits to concentrations as high as 50000 ppm (335480 mg/m3) and 15000 ppm (10064 mg/m3), respectively.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

Irritation studies are technically not feasible because the substance volatilizes at biological temperatures and ambient pressure. However no signs of eye, skin, or respiratory irritation were observed in several inhalation toxicity studies. These studies include nose-only exposures for 4 hours in rats up to 102900 ppm (690413 mg/m3), whole-body exposures for 2 hours in rats up to 21000 ppm (140902 mg/m3), whole-body repeat exposures in rats and rabbits to concentrations as high as 50000 ppm (335480 mg/m3) and 15000 ppm (10064 mg/m3), respectively. Therefore, no classification is required for skin or eye irritation according to EU Directive 67/548/EEC and the EU Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures (CLP) Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
