Regulatory evidence across markets

None of the 13 markets tracked here holds an imported rule under the name TEA-DODECYLBENZENESULFONATE.

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.

dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid, triethanolamine salt

This material contains triethanolamine dodecylbenzenesulfonate, a white- colored, waxy solid dissolved in a liquid carrier. The primary hazard of this material is its potential threat to the environment. Immediate steps should be taken to limit its spread to the environment. Since it is a liquid it can easily penetrate the soil and contaminate groundwater and nearby streams. — CAMEO Chemicals
