Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

- PBT status:
- the substance is not PBT / vPvB
- Justification:
The screening assessment of the available data for this category indicates that conclusion (i) 'this substance does not fulfil the PBT and vPvB criteria' is appropriate for this substance and therefore the PBT/vPvB assessment stops at this point.An exposure assessment and risk characterisation as for a PBT/vPvB substance may however be required if the substance is dangerous in accordance with classification criteria.
Some CAS numbers covered by this CSR contain anthracene at levels in excess of 0.1%. As anthracene is a confirmed PBT, such CAS numbers would be assessed as 'containing a PBT/vPvB' and the emissions need to be characterised by the manufacturer.
- Likely routes of exposure:
The following text applies to those manufacturers whose substances contain anthracene at levels in excess of 0.1%. There are three steps required:characterise the potential emissions of the substance to the different environmental compartments during all activities carried out by the registrant and all identified uses;identify the likely routes by which humans and the environment are exposed to the substance;use this information to implement on the manufacturing site, and recommend to downstream users, risk management measures (RMMS) which minimise emissions and subsequent exposures of humans and the environment throughout the lifecycle of the substance.
