Benzotriazoles and Benzothiazoles Group
Information sheet
These substances were identified for action under the Chemicals Management Plan (CMP). This screening assessment focuses on 15 of 17 substances referred to collectively as the Benzotriazoles and Benzothiazoles Group. The substances in the benzothiazoles subgroup all contain the 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT) moiety; therefore, the conclusion for this subgroup includes MBT and substances that are precursors to MBT, and is not limited to the 6 substances in the table below.

Background
Two other substances were identified as being part of the Benzotriazoles and Benzothiazoles Group at the outset of the third phase of the CMP. These substances (CAS RNs 80584-90-3 and 21564-17-0) were subsequently determined to be of low concern to both human health and the environment through other approaches. The conclusion for CAS RN 80584-90-3 is provided in the Final Screening Assessment for Substances Identified as Being of Low Concern using the Ecological Risk Classification of Organic Substances and the Threshold of Toxicological Concern (TTC)-based Approach for Certain Substances. The conclusion for CAS RN 21564-17-0 is provided in the Final Screening Assessment for the Rapid Screening of Substances with Limited General Population Exposure.
