Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Skin sensitisation

Endpoint conclusion
Additional information:

No sensitization data are available for the PA6T salt [1,4-benzenedioic acid, compound with hexane-1,6-diamine (1:1)]. Data for component chemicals show no evidence for skin sensitization. While sensitization data for a related substance (Nylon 12/T salt [dodecanedioic acid, compound with hexane-1,6-diamine (1:1); CAS# 13188-60-8; EC# 236-143-2]) exists, it may not be relevant as diamines C6 chain length may be more likely to cause sensitization than hexamethylenediamine. Additionally, testing with PA66 salt [adipic acid, compound with hexane-1,6-diamine (1:1); CAS# 3323-53-3; EC# 222-037-3] shows that it is not a sensitizer. Therefore, PA6T salt is not expected to be a skin sensitizer.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on data from component chemicals and similar salts the test substance is not expected to be a skin sensitizer. Therefore the test substance is not classified for skin sensitization to according to EU Directive 67/548/EEC and EU Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures (CLP) Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
