Biocides

Two consultations for alternatives launched

• formaldehyde released from the reaction products of paraformaldehyde and 2-hydroxypropylamine (ratio 1:1)
• formaldehyde released from the reaction products of paraformaldehyde and 2-hydroxypropylamine (ratio 3:2)

Start date: 27/03/2023

Deadline: 26/05/2023

The consultation gathers relevant information on the availability of substitutes or alternatives to the active substance in question. Information on the availability of possible alternatives is highly important to support the comparative assessment that is required for the authorisation of biocidal products containing the active substance (considered as a candidate for substitution).
