Regulatory evidence across markets

None of the 13 markets tracked here holds an imported rule under the name STEARAMINE.

That is a statement about this inventory, not about the law: no imported rule is not evidence that a substance is permitted. A rule may exist under a different name, under a CAS or EC number this glossary entry does not carry, or in a dataset not yet imported.

  • First Aid: EYES: First check the victim for contact lenses and remove if present. Flush victim's eyes with water or normal saline solution for 20 to 30 minutes while simultaneously calling a hospital or poison control center. Do not put any ointments, oils, or medication in the victim's eyes without specific instructions from a physician. IMMEDIATELY transport the victim after flushing eyes to a hospital even if no symptoms (such as redness or irritation) develop.; SKIN: IMMEDIATELY flood affected skin with water while removing and isolating all contaminated clothing. Gently wash all affected skin areas thoroughly with soap and water. IMMEDIATELY call a hospital or poison control center even if no symptoms (such as redness or irritation) develop. IMMEDIATELY transport the victim to a hospital for treatment after washing the affected areas.; INHALATION: IMMEDIATELY leave the contaminated area; take deep breaths of fresh air. If symptoms (such as wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath, or burning in the mouth, throat, or chest) develop, call a physician and be prepared to transport the victim to a hospital. Provide proper respiratory protection to rescuers entering an unknown atmosphere. Whene Source: CAMEO Chemicals

  • Cosmetic Ingredient Review Conclusion: The safety of Lauramine and Stearamine has not been documented and substantiated. The CIR Expert Panel cannot conclude whether these ingredients are safe for use in cosmetic products until the appropriate safety data have been obtained and evaluated.

  • Cosmetic Ingredient Review Finding(s): The available data are insufficient to support safety Source: Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR)
  • Environmental Bioconcentration: An estimated log BCF of 5.6 was calculated for octadecylamine(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 7.7(1,SRC) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Environmental Fate: TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated log Koc value of 5.5(SRC), determined from an estimated log Kow of 7.7(2,SRC) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that octadecylamine is expected to be immobile in soil(SRC). A pKa value of 10.65(4) indicates that the protonated form will be the dominant species in moist soil surfaces and cationic molecules generally adsorb strongly to soils(SRC). Volatilization of octadecylamine from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process since the protonated form is expected to be the dominant species based on the pKa value(4). Volatilization of octadecylamine from dry soil surfaces is not expected(SRC) based upon the estimated vapor pressure of 4.4X10-5 mm Hg at 25 °C(5). A 32% of theoretical BOD in an activated sludge inoculum was observed over a 15-day incubation period(6), suggesting that biodegradation may be rapid in the environment(SRC).

  • Environmental Fate: AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated log Koc value of 5.5(SRC), determined from an estimated log Kow of 7.7(2,SRC) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that octadecylamine is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment in water(SRC). A pKa value of 10.65(4) indicates that the protonated form will be the dominant species in water and volatilization from water surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC). According to a classification scheme(5), an estimated log BCF of 5.6(3,SRC), from its estimated log Kow(2,SRC), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is very high(SRC). A 32% of theoretical BOD in an activated sludge inoculum was observed over a 15-day incubation period(6), suggesting that biodegradation may be rapid in the environment(SRC). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Environmental Fate: ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), octadecylamine, which has an estimated vapor pressure of 4.4X10-5 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist in both the vapor and particulate phases in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase octadecylamine is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC); the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 10 hours(SRC) from its estimated rate constant of 3.4X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(3). Particulate-phase octadecylamine will be removed from the atmosphere by wet and dry depostion(SRC). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
