Additional information
Validated in vitro assays (OECD TG 431 and 439) revealed no corrosive and no irritant property to the skin. For investigating the ocular irritant property an in vitro human corneal epithelium (HCE) test, as prevalidated in 2004 is available. This model is recognized in the scientific community as a highly valuable model for the identification of substances that do not require classification for serious eye damage/eye irritancy (e.g. Cotovio et al., Toxicol. in Vitro, 24, 2010, 523 -537), and is routinely used by cosmetic and pharmaceutical companies. As test result the substance was concluded to be non-irritant to the eye.
For in vivo Irritation/Corrosion for (2,4,6-trioxotriazine-1,3,5(2H,4H,6H)-triyl)tris(hexamethylene) isocyanate (EC 223-242-0, CAS 3779-63-3, mono constituent substance), in the following referred to as "HDI Trimer pure", a read across from the close structural analogue HDI oligomers, isocyanurate type (EC 931-274-8, CAS 28182-81-2, UVCB) is applied. A justification for the read-across with special focus on inhalation toxicity was elaborated and is attached to this endpoint summary. Based on this justification all available toxicological data for HDI oligomers, isocyanurate type can be used for the toxicological evaluation of HDI Trimer pure. This approach is in accordance with Annex XI, section 1.5 of the REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006.
(All available studies for HDI oligomerisation product (isocyanurate type), EC 931-274-8, at http://echa.europa.eu/web/guest/information-on-chemicals/registered-substances)
In vivo Irritation/Corrosion studies with the read-across substance according to OECD TG 404 or 405 revealed slight skin and very slight eye irritation properties, respectively.
The read-across substance was proven to be respiratory irritating based on acute and repeated inhalation toxicity studies.
HDI Trimer pure itself was also found to be a pulmonary irritant based on a study according to the recommendations of TRGS 430 (Technical Rule for Hazardous Substances 430, published by the German Federal Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs, last update 2009; report AT06458, Bayer AG, 2012, see chapter Acute toxicity: inhalation). In this study clinical signs, lung weights and bronchoalveolar lavage analysis revealed findings suggestive of pulmonary irritation at concentrations higher than 15.7 mg/m³. The NO(A)EL of the study was determined to be 3.2 mg/m³.
Justification for selection of skin irritation / corrosion endpoint:
Key-study of the read-across substance.
Justification for selection of eye irritation endpoint:
Key-study of the read-across substance.
Effects on respiratory irritation: irritating
Justification for classification or non-classification
According to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, Annex I, no classification is warranted for skin or eye irritation/corrosion.
Read across from a close structural analogue reveals only slight irritating effects to the skin and very slight irritating effects to the eye of rabbits, both not justifying classification. Additionally, (2,4,6-trioxotriazine-1,3,5(2H,4H,6H)-triyl)tris(hexamethylene) isocyanate
was tested in in vitro assays for skin corrosion and irritation and eye irritation. Also from the in vitro assays no corrosive or irritant property was concluded.According to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, Annex I, classification as STOT SE 3 (H335: May cause respiratory irritation) is warranted.
