Two new substances added to SVHC List

2021-01-19

ECHA has added two new substances to the Candidate List of substances of very high concern (SVHCs) for authorization on 19 January 2021. Now the list contains 211 substances in total.

These two substances were added to the Candidate List as they are toxic for reproduction and hence may adversely affect fertility and cause developmental toxicity in offspring. Both the substances are used in products like inks or toners and also used to produce plastics and rubber tires.

#	Substance name	EC number	CAS number	Reason for inclusion
1	Bis(2-(2-methoxyethoxy) ethyl)ether	205-594-7	143-24-8	Toxic for reproduction (Article 57 (c))
2	Dioctyltin dilaurate, stannane, dioctyl-, bis(coco acyloxy) derivs., and any other stannane, dioctyl-, bis(fatty acyloxy) derivs. wherein C12 is the predominant carbon number of the fatty acyloxy moiety	-	-	Toxic for reproduction (Article 57 (c))

ECHA suggests companies notify ECHA under the Waste Framework Directive (SCIP) if their products contain substances of very high concern.
