Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Local effects

Hazard assessment conclusion:
low hazard (no threshold derived)

Additional information - workers

No non-threshold effects for this substance were identified. The substance is considered that will be poorly taken up by the body because of its overall low solubility. The substance does not cause local effects. It also does not cause acute effects. The starting point for DNEL calculations is the NOAEL (oral route - rat) from a 90-day study = 406.4 mg/kg bw/day. Following the Practical Guide 14 and the ECHA Guidance R.8, the NOAEL oral is corrected to a NOAEC.

Additional information - General Population

No non-threshold effects for this substance were identified. The substance is considered that will be poorly taken up by the body because of its overall low solubility. The substance does not cause local effects. It also does not cause acute effects. The starting point for DNEL calculations is the NOAEL (oral route - rat) from a 90-day study = 406.4 mg/kg bw/day. Following the Practical Guide 14 and the ECHA Guidance R.8, the NOAEL oral is corrected to a NOAEC.
