Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

EC number: 266-045-5 | CAS number: 65997-16-2 High-Alumina cement is a mixture of chemical substances produced by burning or sintering at high temperature (greater than 1200°C (2192°F)) raw materials which are predominantly calcium carbonate, aluminium oxide, silica, and iron oxide. The chemical substances which are manufactured are confined in a crystalline mass. This category includes all of the chemical substances specified below when they are intentionally manufactured in the production of high-alumina cement. The primary members of this category are CaAl2O4, Ca4Al2Fe2O10, Ca12Al14O33, and Ca2SiO4. Other compounds listed below may also be included in the combination with these primary substances.@CaAl4O7@Ca2Al2SiO7@CaAl12O19@Ca4Al6SO16@Ca3Al2O6.@Ca12Al14Cl@CaO@Ca12Al14F2@Ca3SiO5@Ca6Al4Fe2.@Ca2Fe2O5.

Additional information
The toxicity of CAHC can be described to the pH increase due to the addition of OH-, as the calcium and aluminum concentrations are too low to explain the effects. The toxicity of CAHC is depending inthe composition of the test waters, especially the buffer capacity of the water.
Thus, in real aquatic departments the LC50 of CAHC should be much greater than 10 mg/l.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
