Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Clinical signs:
Signs of toxicity related to dose levels:
No treatment related effect was observed during the course of the study.
Body weight:
Throughout the 14-days observation period weight loss was recorded for animal 2 in step 1, loosing weight between the first and the second week. No weight loss was recorded in any other animal. The weight gain was within the expected range.

Additional information

In both studies, oral and dermal, no clinical signs of toxicity were observed throughout the observation period. Except for acute injection of blood vessels in the abdominal region, which is due to the euthanasia injection no special gross pathological changes were found in any animals. Weight gain of all animals was within the expected range.


Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
The only existing study is sufficient

Justification for selection of acute toxicity – inhalation endpoint
Inhalation is not expected to be a relevant exposure path for the substance. The substance as a salt has a very low vapour pressure and after manufacturing and processing it remains embedded into polymer matrix.

Justification for selection of acute toxicity – dermal endpoint
The only existing study is sufficient

Justification for classification or non-classification

According to the GHS criteria, listed in Annex I, the substance does not have to be classified as a hazardous substance regarding acute toxicity to mammals.
