Additional information
Conclusion on classification
According to Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 "General Requirements for Generation of Information on Intrinsic Properties of substances", information on intrinsic properties of substances may be generated by means other than tests e.g. from information from structurally related substances (grouping or read-across), provided that conditions set out in Annex XI are met. Annex XI, "General rules for adaptation of this standard testing regime set out in Annexes VII to X” states that “substances whose physicochemical, toxicological and ecotoxicological properties are likely to be similar or follow a regular pattern as a result of structural similarity may be considered as a group, or ‘category’ of substances. This avoids the need to test every substance for every endpoint”.
A read-across approach was applied to this substance for aquatic toxicity, data was compiled from representative source substances to avoid unnecessary animal testing. Additionally, once the read-across approach is applied, substances will be classified and labelled on this basis.

Degradation
Biodegradation: readily biodegradable (76% after 28 d)
Aquatic acute toxicity
Fish:
Fish: 96 h, LL50 (Brachydanio rerio): > 100 mg/L nominal; (no observed toxicological effects up to the water solubility limit); read-across
Fish: 96 h, LC50 (Brachydanio rerio): > 100 mg/L nominal; (no observed toxicological effects up to the water solubility limit); read-across
Fish: 96 h, LC50 (Brachydanio rerio): > 150 mg/L nominal; > 0.704 mg/L measured (no observed toxicological effects up to the water solubility limit); read-across
96 h, LC50 (Cyprinus carpio): > 100 mg/L nominal; (no observed toxicological effects up to the water solubility limit); read-across
Aquatic invertebrates:
Daphnia: 48 h, EL50 (Daphnia magna): > 1072 nominal; (no observed toxicological effects up to the water solubility limit); read-across
Daphnia: 48 h, EL50 (Daphnia magna): > 100 nominal; (no observed toxicological effects up to the water solubility limit); read-across
Algae:
Algae: 72 h, EL50 (Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata): > 1000 mg/L (nominal; no observed toxicological effects up to the water solubility limit); read-across
Algae: 72 h, EL50 (Desmodesmus subspicatus): > 100 mg/L (nominal; no observed toxicological effects up to the water solubility limit); read-across
Aquatic chronic toxicity
Fish: no data available
Aquatic invertebrates:
Daphnia: 21 d, NOELR (Daphnia magna): ≥ 1 mg/L (nominal; no observed toxicological effects up to the water solubility limit); read-across
Daphnia: 21 d, NOELR (Daphnia magna): ≥ 135 mg/L (nominal; no observed toxicological effects up to the water solubility limit); read-across
Algae:
Algae: 72 h, EL50 (Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata): >100 mg/L (nominal; no observed toxicological effects up to the water solubility limit); read-across
Algae: 72 h, NOELR (Desmodesmus subspicatus): ≥ 100 mg/L (nominal; no observed toxicological effects up to the water solubility limit); read-across
CLP
Pentaerythritol tetrastearate (CAS 115-83-3) is readily biodegradable. The substance is considered to be not acutely or chronically toxic to aquatic organisms up to the limit of water solubility. Therefore pentaerythritol tetrastearate does not need to be classified and labelled as environmental hazardous according to the Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 and the Regulation (EU) No 944/2013 (5th ATP).
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
