ECHA adds five hazardous chemicals to the REACH SVHC Candidate List and updates one existing entry (total 247 entries)

ECHA updated the REACH Candidate List (SVHC) by adding five substances and updating one existing entry. The updated entry (tris(4-nonylphenyl, branched and linear) phosphite) was revised to clarify scope in relation to endocrine disrupting properties (Article 57(f) – environment), including when it contains ≥0.1% w/w 4-nonylphenol (branched and linear). This triggers standard REACH Candidate List downstream obligations for EU supply chains (e.g., Article 33 communication for SVHCs in articles >0.1% w/w; Article 7(2) notification obligations for article producers/importers where applicable; SDS updates for substances/mixtures).
