Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

other: 90th percentile using MEASE for PROC 10 {Ni 5-25%, non-dispers. use, incidental exp., dur. 1 hr, general vent., RPE, gloves} corrected to take into account the use of RPE (APF 20). If no APF is applied to the long-term value, the long-term value is 0.342.
Exposure estimation tool name:
MEASE
Type of exposure:
inhalation (internal) short-term exposure
Exposure estimation method:
other: 3 x long-term inhalable modelled estimate corrected to take into account the use of RPE (APF 20). If no APF is applied to the acute value, the acute value is 1.026.

inhalation (external) long-term exposure
Exposure estimation method:
other: 90th percentile using MEASE for PROC 10 {Ni 5-25%, non-dispers. use, incidental exp., dur. 1 hr, general vent., RPE, gloves} corrected to take into account the use of RPE (APF 20). If no APF is applied to the long-term value, the long-term value is 0.342.
