The C&L for skin sensitisation of "Materials for reclaim, Precious Metals in Bricks, Pots, Crucibles and trays, etc." was determined by using the “Classification criteria for mixtures” of Regulation (EC) 1272/2006 section 3.4.3.3.1 “Classification of mixtures when data are available for all components or only for some components of the mixture”.

"Materials for reclaim, Precious Metals in Bricks, Pots, Crucibles and trays, etc." is a complex metal containing UVCB substance with wide concentration ranges for each constituent. Each individual constituent of "Materials for reclaim, Precious Metals in Bricks, Pots, Crucibles and trays, etc.t" may contribute (as 'relevant' component) to the UVCB toxicity. With knowledge of the composition, mineralogical information and knowledge of corresponding toxicity of the various chemical species, the respective mixture rules in accordance with Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 are used to calculate the C&L of "Materials for reclaim, Precious Metals in Bricks, Pots, Crucibles and trays, etc.".

MeClas was used to automatically calculate the classification of the UVCB substance. The calculation tool is based on a database containing the human and environmental hazard information for each component relevant for classification. The information on the representative mineralogical composition (distribution pattern for each constituent of the UVCB substance) is incorporated into MeClas as well.

 

From the derived hazard category (output of MeClas) the corresponding human health (HH) toxicity value was deduced.

 

The following data were used as input of MeClas:

 

1. Classification from individual components according to Annex VI of the CLP regulation (Regulation (EC) 1272/2008) and the 2nd ATP to this regulation, unless additional information on self-classification was used.

 

2. Percentage of the components in the UVCB: individual total element concentrations (percentages based on total substance amount) were recalculated into percentage of the classified chemical species (i.e. substance), taking into account the distribution pattern of the respective element in its present various mineral forms if such information was available.

Interpretation of results:

not sensitising

Remarks:

Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU

Conclusions:

"Materials for reclaim, Precious Metals in Bricks, Pots, Crucibles and trays, etc." (Reclaim 1 and Reclaim 2)) does not possess skin sensitisation potential in accordance with Guidance on the application of the CLP criteria Version 4.0 - November 2014. Hence, "Materials for reclaim, Precious Metals in Bricks, Pots, Crucibles and trays, etc." (Reclaim 1 and Reclaim 2) does not require classification as skin sensitiser in accordance with Regulation (EC) 1272/2008.

Executive summary:

The described MeClas-based-calculation provides a conservative estimate of toxicological effects of "Materials for reclaim, Precious Metals in Bricks, Pots, Crucibles and trays, etc.t", derived on basis of the mixture C&L rules set forth in Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 using mineralogical information from a representative/worst case sample.

Endpoint conclusion

Endpoint conclusion:

no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)

Additional information:

Substance specific information for the UVCB substance "Materials for reclaim, Precious Metals in Bricks, Pots, Crucibles and trays, etc." is not available for the endpoint "Sensitisation". In order to meet the requirements for Annex VII till Annex X of Regulation (EC) 1907/2006, read across information from any constituents being relevant needs to be included.

In total three different grades of "Materials for reclaim, Precious Metals in Bricks, Pots, Crucibles and trays, etc." (Reclaim 1 – Reclaim 3) were identified by the consortium that could be grouped according to their calculated C&L resulting from the individual composition. Thus, for "Materials for reclaim, Precious Metals in Bricks, Pots, Crucibles and trays, etc." two C&L entries (i.e., no C&L and skin sensitising Cat. 1) for skin Sensitisation were calculated. Each group is described in a separate endpoint study record and endpoint summary.

Migrated from Short description of key information:
No information on animal testing of "Materials for reclaim, Precious Metals in Bricks, Pots, Crucibles and trays, etc." (Reclaim 1 and Reclaim 2) is available. Since, "Materials for reclaim, Precious Metals in Bricks, Pots, Crucibles and trays, etc." (Reclaim 1 and Reclaim 2) does not contain any constituent ≥ 1 % that itself is classified for skin sensitisation (Skin Sens. 1 without sub-categorising); the substance must not be classified as being a skin sensitiser.

For information on C&L for "Materials for reclaim, Precious Metals in Bricks, Pots, Crucibles and trays, etc." - Reclaim 3, please refer to the IUCLID endpoint summaries "sensitisation - Materials for reclaim, Precious Metals in Bricks, Pots, Crucibles and trays, etc. (Reclaim 3)".

"Materials for reclaim, Precious Metals in Bricks, Pots, Crucibles and trays, etc." (Reclaim 1 - Reclaim 3) does not contain any constituent ≥ 0.1 % (w/w) that induces respiratory sensitisation. Hence, the substance must not be classified as respiratory sensitiser in accordance with Regulation (EC) 1272/2008.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Skin sensitisation and respiratory sensitisation

"Materials for reclaim, Precious Metals in Bricks, Pots, Crucibles and trays, etc." (Reclaim 1 and Reclaim 2) does not possess skin sensitisation potential in accordance with Guidance on the application of the CLP criteria Version 4.0 - November 2014. Hence, "Materials for reclaim, Precious Metals in Bricks, Pots, Crucibles and trays, etc." (Reclaim 1 and Reclaim 2) does not require classification as skin sensitiser in accordance with Regulation (EC) 1272/2008.

Furthermore, "Materials for reclaim, Precious Metals in Bricks, Pots, Crucibles and trays, etc." (Reclaim 1 and Reclaim 2) does not contain any constituent ≥ 0.1 % (w/w) that is itself classified for respiratory sensitisation. Hence, the substance must not be classified as respiratory sensitiser in accordance with Regulation (EC) 1272/2008.
