Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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 accordance with the ECHA Guidance R.10 (May 2008), the derivation of PNECs is required for the chemical safety assessment (CSA) of substances manufactured/imported/used in quantities from 10 t/a onwards. Thus, no PNECs have been derived for the REACH registration of Chromium diboride in the tonnage band 1-10 t/a (REACH Annex VII).

Conclusion on classification

Studies investigating the acute toxicity of Chromium diboride to aquatic invertebrates and algae do not have to be conducted as the substance is highly insoluble in water, hence aquatic toxicity is unlikely to occur. Thus, a classification for aquatic environmental hazards is not warranted.
