Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
In accordance with section 7.14 of Column 2 of Annex VII, the study does not need to be conducted if the substance is marketed or used in a non solid or granular form.
As 2,6-Xylenol is obtained from the production process in its liquid form and thereafter either marketed in its liquid form or dissolved in an organic solvent, a particle size distribution is not considered to be relevant. Under circumstances where the substance solidifies (temperatures below its melting point), 2,6-Xylenol will become a molten mass. As a molten mass is a physical state which contains no inhalable particles and will not produce airborne dust, it is concluded technically not feasible to determine the particle size distribution of solidified 2,6-Xylenol.
Additional information
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.
