Description of key information
The majority of the applications for which this substance is used will not result in the material being released to the air or soil. Hydrated magnesium silicate is mainly used as an adsorbent for both industrial processes and also for public use. The material itself is generally in granule or bead form and produces little or no airborne dust. Talc is a naturally occurring substance and is present in large amounts naturally in the environment. It is not known to be toxic to above-ground organisms and not expected to be toxic in any way to above-ground organisms and thus this end point is waved.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.

This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
