Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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: 232-489-3 | CAS number: 8052-41-3 A colorless, refined petroleum distillate that is free from rancid or objectionable odors and that boils in a range of approximately 148.8°C to 204.4°C (300°F to 400°F).
Carcinogenicity
Administrative data
Description of key information
No experimental animal data has been reported concerning the carcinogenic properties of Stoddard solvent. The carcinogenic properties of petrochemical products are usually ascribed to the content of benzene or polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), especially benzo[ a]pyrene.
In Stoddard solvent, however, these constituents are only present in very minute amounts <0.1%.
The content of benzene in theStoddard solventis lower than 0.1 w/w%.
Benzene <0.1%.

Justification for classification or non-classification
Justification for classification or non classification:
Based on the hazard assessment of Stoddard solvent (Benzene <0.1%) in section 2.1 and 2.2. in IUCLID 6, available data for the substance and following the“Guidance on Information Requirement and Chemical Safety Assessment R.8. Characterisation of dose [concentration]- response for human health”, according to the EU’s list of dangerous substances (OJEC No L200/130.7.99) and according to the criteria described in Directive 67/548 and in the CLP Regulation:
Directive 67/548 |
Carcinogenicity Carc. Cat. 1; R45 May cause cancer. Carc. Cat. 1; R49 May cause cancer by inhalation. Carc. Cat. 2; R45 May cause cancer. Carc. Cat. 2; R49 May cause cancer by inhalation. Carc. Cat. 3; R40 Limited evidence of a carcinogenic effect.
|
CLP |
Carcinogenicity Carc. 1A Carc. 1B Carc. 2 H350: May cause cancer <state route of exposure if it is conclusively proven that no other routes of exposure cause the hazard>. H351: Suspected of causing cancer <state route of exposure if it is conclusively proven that no other routs of exposure cause the hazard>. |
It is concluded that the Stoddard solvent (Benzene <0.1%) does not meet the criteria to be classified for human health hazards for Carcinogenicity.

Benzene <0.1%.
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.
