Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:
General grade
Acute inhalation toxicity potential of the UVCB substance was determined by classifying based on Mixture rules from EU CLP (additivity formula of classified components to derive hazard class) and back calculation to the corresponding acute toxicity range estimate.

Test material

Constituent 1
Details on test material:
Reasonable worst-case across industry, as reported in Section 1.2.
Representative sample for mineralogical information is provided in IUCLID Section 4.23.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Good quality estimate of the Acute Toxicity Estimate (ATE) -inhalation of the UVCB substance.
The substance is classified as acute toxic resulting in an ATE of 0.05 mg/L.
Executive summary:

The study provided a conservative estimate of the effect concentration, derived on basis of the classification outcome (mixture toxicity rules) from a reasonable worst-case sample of the substance using mineralogical information from the representative sample. 

 

Validity of the model used:

1. Defined endpoint: the endpoint is a REACH compliant defined endpoint

2. Unambiguous algorithm: EU CLP guidance based summation formula to determine classification, followed by back-calculation to related hazard criteria

3. Applicability domain: applicable to classify complex metal containing materials. 

4. Mechanistic interpretation - metal species: the tool translates the elemental composition into a mineralogical composition relevant for classification.
