Chromium (VI) Authorization
On December 21, 2011 ECHA (European Chemicals Agency) recommended chromium trioxide (hexavalent chromium) for entry into Annex XIV REACH
This means that each application of a substance using hexavalent chromium would require its own authorization
Use of a substance for a non-authorized application is restricted after the sunset date, which at the moment for hexavalent chromium is September 2017
