Additional information
Fluorphlogopite (synthetic mica) is a insoluble and non-reactive artificial mineral consisting of magnesium, potassium, aluminum, fluoride and silicate. The particle size ranges from 5 to 50 µm. Considering the physico-chemical properties of Fluorphlogopite, dermal and oral/GI absorption can be excluded. Based on the particle size, Fluorphlogopite particles could reach the alveolar region of the respiratory tract after inhalation. However, no adverse effects have been observed in a 4h acute inhalation toxicity study in rats at the limit concentration of 5.1 mg/L, indicating no toxic potential of Fluorphlogopite after inhalation. After inhalation, particles will be removed by the known clearance mechanism of the respiratory tract.
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.
