Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Administrative data

Description of key information

The substance does not display acute toxicity, as seen by the high values for the LD50/LC50 for oral, dermal or inhalation routes of administration in rat and rabbit model systems. 

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Acute toxicity: via oral route

Endpoint conclusion
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Value:
15 000 mg/kg bw

Acute toxicity: via inhalation route

Endpoint conclusion
Dose descriptor:
LC50
Value:
5 mg/m³ air

Acute toxicity: via dermal route

Endpoint conclusion
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Value:
5 000 mg/kg bw

Additional information

The acute oral LD50 is greater than 15,000 mg/kg bw, the acute dermal LD50 is greater than 5,000 mg/kg, and the acute inhalation LC50 is greater than 5 mg/m³. The substance does not display acute toxicity, as seen by these high values for the LD50 for oral or dermal routes of administration in rat and rabbit model systems. For inhaltion route of administration the highest achievable exposure concentration of 5 mg/m³ did not show any deaths or clinical signs compared to control group. In addition, the inhalation route is not appropriate, as the substance is a waxy solid and does not form particles which are inhalable.  

Justification for classification or non-classification

None of the values for LD50/LC50 for oral, dermal or inhalation administration meets the criteria for classification for acute toxicity, according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
