Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

JUSTIFICATION FOR DATA WAIVING
REACH Annex VIII (Section 8.6.1) states that a short-term repeated dose toxicity study (28 days) is required in one species (male and female) utilising the most appropriate route of administration, having regard to the likely route of human exposure. This data requirement has been addressed through provision of a short term repeated dose toxicity test on the substance, which was conducted via the oral route.
In accordance with Column 2 of REACH Annex VIII, the repeated dose toxicity study (required in Section 8.6.1) by the inhalation route does not need to be conducted as exposure of humans via inhalation is extremely unlikely. The substance is not manufactured or imported as such on the EU market, but it is only available as a reacted monomer in an imported polymer with residual levels below 0.1 %; consequently the potential exposure is minimal and it is therefore considered justified to omit repeated dose toxicity testing via the inhalation route.
