Materials and methods
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- The potential of the UVCB substance as respirsatory sensitiser was established by classifying the complex metal substance according to rules for classification of mixtures for respiratory or skin sensitisation (EU CLP guidance section 3.4.3 pg 277ff). The classification criteria (as set out in EU CLP Annex I: 3.4.3.3.1.) can be used to estimate effects derived from that classification/hazard.
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Remarks:
- other quality assurance
Test material
- Reference substance name:
- Iron silicate, copper smelting and refining
- EC Number:
- 701-480-0
- Cas Number:
- 67711-92-6
- IUPAC Name:
- Iron silicate, copper smelting and refining
- Details on test material:
- Typical (across industry) copper slag as defined in section 1.2 ;
See IUCLID Section 1.4, for company specific elemental composition; and representative sample for mineralogical information (IUCLID Section 4.23 -Outotec report)
Constituent 1
Results and discussion
Any other information on results incl. tables
The calculated classification via mixture toxicity rules resulted in “Respiratory sensitization: Not classified”
Copper slag contains minor constituents classified as respiratory sensitisers but their actual levels are much lower than < 1% thus Mixture A is not classified for respiratory sensitization.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not sensitising
- Remarks:
- predicted effect
- Conclusions:
- Result can be used to predict respiratory sensitizing effect and to classify the UVCB substance
- Executive summary:
The study provided a conservative estimate of the Respiratory sensitization effect,derived on basis of the Classification outcome by applying the rules for mixtures of a Typical (across industry) copper slag.
It is concluded that slag, copper smelting is not to be classified as respiratory sensitizer..
The result is applicable to all copper slags that fall under the defined concentration ranges (IUCLID section 1.2).
Chemistry of the substance (see IUCLID section 4.23 chemical and mineralogical characterization) shows that no significant amounts of Respiratory Sensitizer species detected in representative samples and maximim across industry.
