Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
MK1 Diesel Fuel was pre-registered as 'Distillates (petroleum), hydrotreated light' (CAS 64742-47-8 / EC 265-149-8) but is being registered as a separate substance due to its distinct physical properties.
Additional information
MK1 Diesel Fuel was pre-registered as 'Distillates (petroleum), hydrotreated light' (CAS 64742-47-8 / EC 265-149-8) but is being registered as a separate substance due to its distinct physical properties.
Many petroleum UVCB substances are described in the EC inventory by their boiling range. The boiling range of MK1 Diesel Fuel is prescribed by Swedish Standard SS 155435 as approximately 180-320°C. This does not match the description of the EC substance currently used to categorize MK1 Diesel Fuel: entry 265-149-8 is described by a boiling range of 150-290°C. The generic entry for Diesel Fuel, 269-822-7, also has an inappropriate boiling range of 163-375°C. Therefore the registrants propose to register a separate substance named MK1 Diesel Fuel, with the following description.
A complex combination of hydrocarbons obtained by treating a petroleum fraction with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst. It consists of hydrocarbons having carbon numbers predominantly in the range of C10 through C18 and boiling in the range of approximately 180°C to 320°C.
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.
