Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Skin sensitisation

Endpoint conclusion
Additional information:

Etheramine C13i is corrosive. As indicated in REACH Annex VII, an in vivo skin sensitisation study does not need to be conducted if the substance is classified as corrosive to the skin.

 

When considering available information on all primary amines using OECD Toolbox (v.1.1.0) it shows that some are sensitising (generally diamines) and some are not:

Category of all primary amines

removing all that are dissimilar for:

-      Protein binding: Arylcarboxylate aminolysis; Electrophilic substitution of arenesulfinic acids; Nucleophilic addition to ketones.

-      OASIS Acute Toxicity MOA: Phenols & anilines; Reactive unspecified

However, the substance is out of domain because of its high Pow value. (See attached document: OECD ToolBox-Sensitisation Etheramine C13i.pdf)

 

For the category of primary alkylamines as presented in the EU RAR, all are evaluated as to be non sensitising. Cross-reading with the category primary alkylamines seems most appropriate for this substance. (Ref.EU risk assessment under 93/793/EEC as published by ECHA in the annex XV REACH transitional documents)

For corrosive substances, the use of protective gloves and other equipment, such as face shields, aprons and good work practices are mandatory. As a result, direct dermal contact occurs only occasionally. Therefore, repeated substantial daily dermal exposure is unlikely.

Migrated from Short description of key information:

No information. An in vivo skin sensitisation study does not need to be conducted as the substance is classified as corrosive to the skin. Cross reading with primary alkylamines indicates non-sensitising.

Respiratory sensitisation

Endpoint conclusion
Additional information:

Migrated from Short description of key information:

No information available.

Justification for classification or non-classification

There is no information available from testing. Cross reading with primary alkylamines indicates that the substance would not be sensitising to skin.
