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).

Key value for chemical safety assessment
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.
Acute exposure to CAS # 98072 -31 -2 and CAS #68526-85-2 has a low potential for toxicity via the oral route. The LD50 via the oral route is greater than 5,000 mg/kg and 2648 mg/kg, respectively.
Justification for classification or non-classification
No classification for acute toxicity 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.
