Additional information

‘Fatty acids, palm-oil, hydrogenated’ is used in a variety of industrial, professional and consumer settings for a number of applications, including as a source material for energy production and as a raw material or feedstock for the production of other substances such as soaps and surfactants, candles, etc. In addition, it also acts as a processing aid in many industrial processes, such as the polymerization process in the production of resins and rubbers and the flotation processes (e.g. de-inking and mineral recovery). In these applications, ‘Fatty acids, palm-oil, hydrogenated’ can be used as such or in preparations and articles.

Direct exposure of the terrestrial environment is expected to be extremely limited under any of the use scenarios listed above. As a result, there will be no significant toxicity to the terrestrial environment and a PNECsoil was not calculated.
