Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

EC number: 271-078-3 | CAS number: 68515-37-7 A complex combination of hydrocarbons produced by the esterification of phthalic anhydride with isononyl alcohol. It consists predominantly of C9 primary alcohols, C9 paraffins, and saturated and unsaturated C18 ethers and boiling in the range of approximately 120°C to 220°C (248°F to 428°F).

Description of key information
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Skin sensitisation
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)
- Additional information:
Discard alcohol (CAS #84852-02-8) is a mixture of components: a mixture of C8-13 branched hydrocarbons, C9-13 branched primary alcohols and C10-12 cyclic ethers. All components are multi-isomeric. The composition is variable. All structures are branched and multi-isomeric. For the purposes of read across, data from an equivalent alcohol will be used (isodecanol, CAS #68526-85-2), as will data from a commercial substance (Vammar D10, CAS #98072-31-2) that contains similar aliphatic ethers to discard alcohol.
There was no evidence of skin sensitization in guinea pigs induced and challenged with CAS # 98072 -31 – 2 or CAS #68526-85-2.
Migrated from Short description of key information:
Skin Sensitization – Negative for guinea pigs (OECD TG 406).
Respiratory sensitisation
Endpoint conclusion
- Additional information:
There are no data which have evaluated the skin and respiratory sensitization potential of CAS # 98072 -31 - 2 in humans. However, a skin sensitization study utilizing CAS # 98072 -31 – 2 found no indication of skin sensitization in guinea pigs. It is presumed that CAS # 98072 -31 - 2 will not be a respiratory sensitizing agent.
Migrated from Short description of key information:
No data
Justification for classification or non-classification
No classification for sensitization is indicated according to the general classification and labeling requirements for dangerous substances and preparations (Directive 67-548-EEC) or the classification, labeling and packaging (CLP) regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
