Note

The index number is the identification code given to the substance in Annex 1 of Directive 67/548/EEC. Substances are listed in the Schedule according to this index number.

The EC number for each substance listed in the European Inventory of Existing Commercial Chemical Substances (Einecs) there is an identification code which starts at 200-001-8. For each new substance notified under the Directive 67/548/EEC an idenfication code has been defined and published in the European List of Notified Chemical Substances (Elincs). The code starts at 400-010-9.

The CAS number is the number assigned to the substance by the “Chemicals Abstract Service”.
