Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Based on read across from PETMP, PETMA is assumed to be harmful if swallowed (LD50 = 1500 mg/kg bw) and non-toxic if inhaled (no mortality at highest attainable concentration).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Acute toxicity: via oral route

Link to relevant study records
Reference
Endpoint:
acute toxicity: oral
Type of information:
read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
Adequacy of study:
weight of evidence
Justification for type of information:
see category report attached as "full study report"
Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
read-across source
Principles of method if other than guideline:
read across from PETMP using OECD QSAR Toolbox 4.2 using Structural Similarity as descriptor
Species:
rat
Route of administration:
oral: gavage
Key result
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
1 500 mg/kg bw
Based on:
act. ingr.
Remarks:
read across from PETMP
Interpretation of results:
Category 4 based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
Based on read across from PETMP, PETMA is classified as Acute Tox 4 - H302
Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
adverse effect observed
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Value:
1 500 mg/kg bw
Quality of whole database:
read across from valid study

Acute toxicity: via inhalation route

Link to relevant study records
Reference
Endpoint:
acute toxicity: inhalation
Type of information:
read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
Adequacy of study:
key study
Justification for type of information:
see category report attached as "full study report"
Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
read-across source
Principles of method if other than guideline:
read across from PETMP using OECD QSAR Toolbox 4.2 using Structural Similarity as descriptor
Species:
rat
Route of administration:
inhalation: aerosol
Key result
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LC50
Effect level:
> 3 363 mg/m³ air (analytical)
Based on:
other: read across
Exp. duration:
4 h
Remarks on result:
not determinable due to absence of adverse toxic effects
Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Based on read across from PETMP, the 4-h LC50 of PETMA is considered >3.36 mg/L which was the highest attainable concentration of PETMP. Since both substances haver similar visosities, they are assumed to have a similar behaviour when atomised.
Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed
Dose descriptor:
LC50
Value:
3 360 mg/m³ air
Quality of whole database:
read across from valid study, no mortality at highest attainable concentration

Acute toxicity: via dermal route

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no study available
Quality of whole database:
not required since data on two other routes of exposure are available

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on read across from PETMP, PETMA is assumed to be harmful if swallowed (LD50 = 1500 mg/kg bw, Acute Tox 4, H302) and non-toxic if inhaled (no mortality at highest attainable concentration).
