Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Dermal NOAEL

Based on Appendix R. 8-2, Example B.5, as a worst case it is assumed that 100% adsorption orally to rats and by dermal adsorption to human are equivalent.

NOAEL (dermal) = 250 * 100/100

NOAEL (dermal) = 250 mg/kg/day.

Inhalation NOAEL

Calculation of inhalation NOAEL is based on formulae in R. 8 -3, as a worst case it is assumed 100% adsorption orally to rats and by inhalation to human are equivalent with suitable modification to account for test species being canine rather than rat. The granulometry data for this substance indicates that the substance is not respirable by humans; the vapour pressure of the substance is extremely low indicating the substance is non-volatile. Target endpoints are also assumed to be equivalent.

Canine respiration rate determined based on principles outlined in Handbook of Veterinary Nursing, H. Orpet, P. Welsh, 2002 Blackwell Science Ltd, ISBN:9780632052585

Assumptions made:

Tidal volume (canine) 10 ml/kg bw

Respiration rate 20 breaths per minute

Circuit factor 1.5

Respiratory volume (canine) = 10 x 20 x 1.5 = 300 ml/min/kg bw = 0.3l/min/kg bw

8h exposure = 0.3 x 0.001 x 60 x 8 = 0.144 m3/kg bw

For workers (8h exposure/d)

NOAEL (inhal) = 250 * 1/0.144 m3/kg/d * 100/100 * 6.7m3/10m3

NOAEL (inhal) = 1163.19 mg/m3
