Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Justification for type of information:
REPORTING FORMAT FOR THE CATEGORY APPROACH
This read-across hypothesis is based on a category approach. Within this approach, it is assumed that, based on structural similarity, the source and target substances will display similar toxicological properties. Of the category approaches detailed in the RAAF guidance document, Scenario 6 “Difference compounds have the same type of effect(s)” is considered the most appropriate hypothesis for this read-across. This read-across is detailed in the read-across justification document provided under 'Assessment Report'.
