Additional information
Justification for grouping of substances and read-across
There are no data available for the irritation/corrosion of Fatty acids, tall-oil, triesters with trimethylolpropane (CAS 94581-09-6). In order to fulfil the standard information requirements set out in Annex VIII, 8.1 and VIII, 8.2 in accordance with Annex XI, 1.5, of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, read-across from structurally related substances was conducted. In accordance with Article 13 (1) of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 “information on intrinsic properties of substances may be generated by means other than tests, provided that the conditions set put in Annex XI are met”. In particular for human toxicity, information shall be generated whenever possible by means other than vertebrate animal tests, which includes the use of information from structurally related substances (grouping or read-across).
Having regard to the general rules for grouping of substances and read-across approach laid down in Annex XI, Item 1.5, of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, whereby substances may be predicted as similar provided that their physicochemical, toxicological and ecotoxicological properties are likely to be similar or follow a regular pattern as a result of structural similarity, the substance listed below are selected as reference substances for hazard assessment.

The above mentioned substances are considered to be similar on the basis of structural similarity resulting in similar properties and/or activities. The available endpoint information is used to predict the same endpoints for Fatty acids, tall-oil, triesters with trimethylolpropane (CAS 94581-09-6). A detailed analogue approach justification is provided in the technical dossier (see IUCLID Section 13).
Skin irritation
A primary dermal irritation study was performed with Fatty acids, C16-18 and C18-unsatd., branched and linear ester with trimethylolpropane (CAS 403507-18-6) comparable to OECD Guideline 404 and GLP (Sanders, 2002). The clipped skin of three male New Zealand White rabbits was exposed to 0.5 mL unchanged test material for 4 hours under semiocclusive conditions. The rabbits were observed for 3 days following exposure. Skin reactions were assessed 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after removal of the test substance. Very slight to well-defined erythema was noted in all animals one hour after patch removal and at the 24 h observation time point. Very slight erythema was seen for 2/3 animals at the 48 and 72 h observations. The mean erythema score over 24, 48 and 72 hours were 1.33 for animal #1 and #3 and 0.33 for animal #2. The mean edema scores were 0.33, 0, and 1.33 for animals #1, #2 and #3 respectively. All effects were at the latest reversible within 7 days. Thus, the test material is not considered irritating to the skin in this study.
Eye Irritation
Fatty acids, C16-18 and C18-unsatd., branched and linear ester with trimethylolpropane (CAS 403507-18-6) was tested for its acute eye irritation potential in a study performed comparable to OECD Guideline 405 (Sanders, 2002). The undiluted test material (0.1 mL) was applied into the conjunctival sac of two male and one female New Zealand White rabbits. The animals were observed for 72 hours and reactions were assessed 1, 24, 48, and 72 hours after instillation according to the Draize scoring system. No corneal or iridal effects occurred during the study. Moderate conjuctival irritation was observed in all treated eyes one hour after application. Minimal conjuctival irritation was noted in two treated eyes (2/3 animals) at the 24 h observation time point. The mean conjunctivae scores over 24, 48 and 72 hours were 0.33 and 0 for animal #1 and #3 and 0 for animal #2. All effects were at latest reversibile within 48 hours. Thus, the test material is not considered irritating to the eyes in this study.
Justification for selection of skin irritation / corrosion endpoint:
Hazard assessment is conducted by means of read-across from structural analogue. The available study are adequate and reliable based on the identified similarities in structure and intrinsic properties between source and target substance and overall quality assessment (refer to the endpoint discussion for further details).
Justification for selection of eye irritation endpoint:
Hazard assessment is conducted by means of read-across from structural analogue. The available study are adequate and reliable based on the identified similarities in structure and intrinsic properties between source and target substance and overall quality assessment (refer to the endpoint discussion for further details).
Justification for classification or non-classification
The available data on skin/eye irritation potential of structural related substances do not meet the classification criteria according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 or Directive 67/548/EEC, and are therefore conclusive but not sufficient for classification.
