ECHA Board of Appeal: Announcement of Appeal by Evonik Operations GmbH Against Decision of the European Chemicals Agency

The German chemical company Evonik Operations GmbH has filed an appeal against the European Chemicals Agency's (ECHA) decision to register the compound 2,4,6-tris(dimethylaminomethyl)phenol. The ECHA had previously requested the company to produce details on an extended one-generation reproductive toxicity study, but the research was found insufficient by the ECHA. Evonik Operations GmbH is now attempting to have the challenged decision annulled, and the appeal cost refunded.
