Introduction of polymers of low concern
 (6) This subsection applies to the introduction of an industrial chemical by a person if:
 (a) the industrial chemical is a polymer of low concern; and
 (b) the industrial chemical is not a high molecular weight polymer that has lung overloading potential (within the meaning given by the Guidelines).

Introduction of low concern biological polymers
 (7) This subsection applies to the introduction of an industrial chemical by a person if:
 (a) the industrial chemical is a biological chemical; and
 (b) the industrial chemical is a polymer; and
 (c) the industrial chemical would be a polymer of low concern if the definition of polymer of low concern in Schedule 2 did not include a requirement that the polymer is stable (within the meaning given by the Guidelines).

Introduction of industrial chemicals resulting from non‑functionalised surface treatment of listed industrial chemicals
 (8) This subsection applies to the introduction of an industrial chemical by a person if:
 (a) the industrial chemical is the result of a reaction between 2 or more chemicals where the reaction occurs at the surface of one of the chemicals (the substrate chemical); and
 (b) the substrate chemical and each of the other chemicals that reacts with the substrate chemical is listed on the Inventory; and
 (c) the industrial chemical is not an industrial chemical that:
 (i) is a solid, or is in a dispersion, at the time of introduction; and
 (ii) consists of solid particles, in an unbound state or as an aggregate or agglomerate, where at least 50% (by number size distribution) of the particles have at least one external dimension in the nanoscale; and
 (d) the industrial chemical does not have any reactive functional groups that were not present on the substrate chemical.

Introduction of manufactured soap
 (9) This subsection applies to the introduction of an industrial chemical by a person if:
 (a) the introduction of the industrial chemical by the person occurs only by manufacture; and
 (b) the industrial chemical is manufactured by the person in a saponification reaction using:
 (i) a fat or an oil; and
 (ii) aqueous sodium hydroxide or aqueous potassium hydroxide; and
 (c) the total volume of the fat or oil used by the person to manufacture the industrial chemical in a registration year does not exceed 100 kg.
