It is customary that listing of new chemical substances notified under TCCA (the predecessor of K-REACH) into the KECI is made 3 years after the notification. This batch of substances was notified under the Toxic Chemical Control Act (TCCA) during 1 Apr 2013 and 30 Sep 2013. They have previously undergone toxicity assessment and were designated as non-toxic.
