Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reliable studies of acute oral and acute inhalation toxicity in the rat are available.  Both found no deaths and no significant toxicity.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Acute toxicity: via oral route

Endpoint conclusion
Value:
mg/kg bw

Acute toxicity: via inhalation route

Endpoint conclusion
Value:
mg/m³ air

Additional information

The rat acute oral toxicity study found no evidence of toxicity following administration of test substance at 5000 mg/kg. In the inhalation study, rats exposed for 4 hours to a dust atmosphere nominally 4.9 mg.l (measured concentration 0.316 mg/l) showed a similar absence of adverse reaction (including an absence of treatment-related histopathological change in the lungs and tracheae). The difference between nominal and measured concentrations in this study may indicate that close to a maximum practicable concentration was achieved, and it is also notable that particle size analysis of the test substance in its commercial form found 50.9% to have particle size =/> 45 microns.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The results of acute toxicity indicate that no classification for this endpoint is appropriate.
