Fatty acids, tall-oil, magnesium salts

GHS

General Information

Name:

Fatty acid, tall oil, magnesium salts

Implementation:

EU

Remarks:

The UVCB substance is made in solvent mixtures composed of e.g. naphtha and other complex hydrocarbon mixtures. These solvents are classified for several hazardous properties and are practically impossible to remove completely to isolate the pure UVCB substance. The mixture is therfore not relevant for evaluating physical hazards (e.g. flammability) or toxicological testing. The classification for toxicological endpoints is based on (read-across) the inherent properties of two of its components; 2-ethyl hexanoic acid (CASno:149-57-5) and Crude Tall Oil (CASno:8002-26-4). The Magnesium hydroxide part of the UVCB substance is deliberately excluded since it is non hazardous and unclassified substance.
The substance has been classified as a reprotoxicant based on the harmonised classification of 2-ethylhexanioc acid.
