C(2017) 5001


19 July 2017


Chromium trioxide
EC No 215-607-8, CAS No 1333-82-0


Nexter Mechanics, 20 Rue du 9 Juin 1944, 19012 Tulle, France


REACH/17/21/0


Industrial use of chromium trioxide in a mixture for the hard chromium plating of military armament steels parts which are thermomechanically stressed and in contact with oxidizing gas at high temperature, so as to ensure a thermal barrier with high melting point, resistance to wear and oxidation associated with weapons as well as resistance to impact and atmospheric corrosion


21 September 2029


In accordance with Article 60(4) of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, the socioeconomic benefits outweigh the risk to human health and the environment arising from the uses of the substance and there are no suitable alternative substances or technologies in terms of their technical feasibility.




 


 


 


 


REACH/17/21/1


Industrial use of chromium trioxide in a mixture for the hard chromium plating of military armament parts in order to ensure surface hardness, resistance to atmospheric corrosion, abrasive wear resistance and friction coefficient for parts in relative movement


21 September 2024


 




 


 


 


 


REACH/17/21/2


Industrial use of chromium trioxide in a mixture for the black colour hard chromium plating of exterior surface of steel weapon barrel designed for military use, to ensure, during the whole gun barrel service life, stealth, erosion, corrosion and high temperature resistances in the conditions of uses

Chromium trioxide
EC No 215-607-8, CAS No 1333-82-0


Nexter Mechanics, 20 Rue du 9 Juin 1944, 19012 Tulle, France


REACH/17/21/3


Industrial use, of chromium trioxide in a specific mixture by spraying or immersion, and of dichromium tris(chromate) in a specific mixture by pen application, for the chromate conversion coating of welded mechanical structures of armoured vehicles and associated parts made of high mechanical properties aluminium alloys for military use, and requiring a maintained electrical conductivity after severe climatic environments, atmospheric corrosion resistance and paint adhesion
