Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Endpoint:

Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
data from handbook or collection of data
Qualifier:
no guideline available
Principles of method if other than guideline:
- Principle of test: No information related to the method adopted ore the guideline are available.
The use of secondary sources of data is acceptable when they are based on a critical evaluation of peer-reviewed data and a consequent selection of a reliable and representative value for the property under investigation. When several alternate data values appear in the literature, the data is evaluated and representative selections are made; values are then reported with the corresponding source. Therefore, although the method used is not known, the values presented here are acceptable as they are from a reliable secondary source of phys chem data.

No information on data or the test method used to measure this endpoint are available in the handbook. However,

the information are taken from a peer reviewed assessment document (primary source: COSMETIC, TOILETRY AND FRAGRANCE ASSOCIATION (CTFA). (No date). Submission of unpublished data by CTFA) and

mentioned in a high quality review so, it can be considered reliable and suitable for use as the key study for this endpoint
