EU - Draft Recommendation for Inclusion in the Authorisation List and Consultation

​ECHA regularly assesses the substances from the Candidate List to decide which ones should be included in the Authorisation List as a priority. This prioritisation is primarily based on the information in the registration dossiers on uses and volumes of the substance in the scope of authorisation.​​

ECHA published the draft recommendation, which typically runs once a year, on 5 March and now seek for public comments until 5 June.

The substances are:

1. Octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (D4)

2. Decamethylcyclopentasiloxane (D5)

3. Dodecamethylcyclohexasiloxane (D6)

4. Terphenyl, hydrogenated

5. Dicyclohexyl phthalate (DCHP)

6. Disodium octaborate

7. Benzene-1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid 1,2-anhydride (trimellitic anhydride, TMA)​
