Reference substance:
m-Tetramethylxylene diisocyanate (boundary composition)
PBT status:
the substance is not PBT / vPvB
Justification:

m-TMXDI fulfils the criteria for ‘T’ defined by the REACH legislation. However, it undergoes rapid hydrolysis in presence of moisture (not ‘P’ and not ‘vP’) and has a low potential for bioaccumulation (not ‘B’ and not ‘vB’). In conclusion, m-TMXDI is not considered to be a PBT or a vPvB substance.
