Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information

In a report (BG Chemie Toxikologische bewertungen, Nr. 89, 1997) is stated that the no adverse effected level (NOAEL) of 3,4-dichloro-α,α,α-trifluorotoluene after repeated exposure, 28- or 90-days, was between 5 and 10 mg/kg bw. Effects on the liver (centrilobular hypertrophy of the hepatocytes, increased relative liver weight) and kidneys were observed. However, the observed kidney effects were not likely to occur in humans, because it is specific for the species in which it was tested.

 

In a repeated dose study presented in the ECHA dissiminated dossier (d.d. 2014-08-20) Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to 7.5, 15, 30, 60, 120 mg/kg bw 3,4-dichloro-α,α,α-trifluorotoluene, via oral gavage daily for 14 days. The NOAEL was determined to be more than 120 mg/kg bw.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Because of the limited information available for repeated dose toxicity, classification is not possible in accordance with EU Classification, Labeling and Packaging of Substance and Mixtures (CLP) Regulation No. 1272/2008 and EU Directive 67/548 (DSD).
