25 substances that have finished registration under the previous TCCA were published by the MoE (Notice No.95-2015) as existing substances on 1 Jul 2015. These substances (KE No. 2015-3-7118 ~ 2015-3-7142) are added into the KECI according to the three-year inclusion rule after successful registration. In addition, some information of two existing substances (KE No. 2015-3-6248 & 2015-3-6739) have been revised.
The revision details of the two substances are specified as below.
KE No. | Previous | Now |
2015-3-6248 | Mixed O,O-bis(hexyl and iso-Bu)phosphorodithioate, zinc salts (CAS No. 68784-34-9) | Phosphorodithioic acid, Mixed O,O-bis(hexyl and iso-Bu)cstcrs, zinc salts (CAS No. 68784-34-9) |
2015-3-6739 | [총칭명] 2-Methyl-2-propenoic acid, 1-ethylcyclohexyl ester polymer with [(hexahydro-dioxido-alkanocarbomonocyclic-oxathiol-yl)oxy]-oxoalkyl(C=2~6) alkyl-alkenoate(C=3~7) and hydroxycarbopolycyclic alkyl-alkenoate(C=3~7) | [총칭명]2-propenoicacid, 2-Methyl-1-ethylcyclohexylester polymer with [(hexahydro-dioxido-alkanocarbomonocyclic-oxathiol-yl)oxy]-oxoalkyl(C=2~6) alkyl-alkenoate(C=3~7) and hydroxycarbopolycyclic alkyl-alkenoate(C=3~7) |
The last update to the whole KECI saw 951 chemical substances (KE No. 2015-3-6167 ~ 2015-3-7117) added to the KECI on 3 Jun 2015 by MoE Notice No.75-2015 (ChemLinked news). This batch of substances was assessed under TCCA between 1 Apr 2012 and 31 Dec 2014 and subject to MoE’s special policy for adding into the KECI in advance after the original notifiers’ application, which is not bound by the three-year inclusion rule (ChemLinked news).
Although these substances are exempt from new chemical registration, they are still required to submit the annual report at or above 1 t/y. The first annual report should be submitted before 30 Jun 2016.
