Description of key information

In accordance with the Guidance on Information Requirements and Chemical Saftey Assessment, chapter R.7c (ECHA, 2008) the profile on basic toxicokinetics of the reaction product of oleyl alcohol with polyphosphoric acid was derived from its physico-chemical data and toxicological data.
Due to its physico-chemical properties, primarily the low water solubility, and the absence of systemic toxicity in acute and subacute studies the oral absorption is expected to be negligible.
Based on its physico-chemical properties and absence of toxicity in an acute dermal toxicity study very limited absorption into the systemic circulation is expected after dermal application.
Considering the very low vapour pressure, the resulting low volatility of the high viscous liquid it is unlike that the substance will be inhaled either in vapour form or as dust particles under use conditions.
Since the absorption is expected to be very low the assessment of distribution, metabolism, accumulating potential and excretion of the poorly water soluble reaction product of oleyl alcohol with polyphosphoric acid is not considered to be relevant. According to this no signs of systemic toxicity and no target organs were observed in acute and subacute toxicity studies in rats.
