On April 02, 2025, the Australian Industrial Chemicals Introduction Scheme (AICIS) updated its Rolling Action Plan by listing proposed, ongoing and recently completed chemical evaluations. Rolling Action Plan doesn't include evaluations initiated for chemicals under a current assessment certificate. * The following evaluations are open for consultation until 29 May 2025 are:1) 1,1'-Biphenyl, 4,4'-diisocyanato-3,3'-dimethyl-2) 1-Butanone, 2-(dimethylamino)-2-[(4-methylphenyl)methyl]-1-[4-(4-morpholinyl)phenyl]-3) Acrylic acid and its salts and acyl derivatives4) Alkyl borate esters5) Chemicals that are unlikely to require further regulation to manage risks to human health6) Di-tert-butylphenols7) Ethoxylated alcohols8) Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and its salts and complexes9) 1,3-Dioxane, 2-(2,4-dimethyl-3-cyclohexen-1-yl)-5-methyl-5-(1-methylpropyl)- (Karanal)10) Medium to long chain alkyl and alkene sulfonates11) Mercaptobenzothiazole and its sodium and zinc salt12) Phenol, 2,4,6-tris(1,1-dimethylethyl)-13) Phenol, 2,2'-[(1-methyl-1,2-ethanediyl)bis(nitrilomethylidyne)]bis- 14) C4 and C5 alkanoic acids15) 2-Butanone oxime (MEKO)-releasing silanes16) 2-Propenoic acid, 2-cyano-3,3-diphenyl-, 2-ethylhexyl ester (Octocrylene)17) Chemicals that are unlikely to require further regulation to manage risks to environment18) Methanone, diphenyl- (Benzophenone)Following evaluation are in progress:1) Azo dyes based on 5-nitro-2-thiazolamine and toluenediamine derivatives2) Urea, N'-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-N,N-dimethyl- (Diuron)3) Phenol, 4,4'-thiobis[2-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-5-methyl-4) Zinc and zinc manufacturing by-products5) 2-Propenoic acid, 2-methyl-, 1,1?-(1-methylethylidene)di-4,1-phenylene ester (Bisphenol A dimethacrylate)6) Chemicals not considered for in depth evaluation – Not commercially active in AustraliaFollowing are the recently completed evaluations:1) Water-soluble zinc salts2) 1H-Benzotriazole and its mono-substituted derivatives3) 2-Ethylhexyl phosphates4) Acrylates and methacrylates based on bisphenol A (BPA)5) Alkoxysilane ethylenediamine and polyamine derivatives6) Benzenesulfonic acid, dodecyl-, compound with 4,4-dimethyloxazolidine (1:1)7) Benzoic acid, 2-hydroxy-, methyl ester (methyl salicylate)8) Cyanoacrylates9) Environmental fate and effects of zinc ions10) Medium and long chain alkyl sulfates11) Phenolic benzotriazoles12) Salicylic acid and its salts13) Tellurium and its inorganic compounds14) Extracts and essential oils primarily composed of methyl salicylate15) Hexamine and related chemicals16) Chemicals that are unlikely to require further regulation to manage risks to environment17) Chemicals not considered for in depth evaluation – Not commercially active in Australia18) Benzoic acid, 2-hydroxy-, 3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexyl ester (Homosalate)19) Chemicals not considered for in depth evaluation – Not commercially active in Australia20) Chemicals that are unlikely to require further regulation to manage risks to environment21) Phenol, 4,4'-(1-methylethylidene)bis- (Bisphenol A)
