Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information
Additional information
White liquor consists of water soluble inorganic ionic constituents, i.e. sodium, potassium and calcium hydroxides, carbonates, sulfides, tiosulfates and sulfates together with some minor constituents. Each of the elements and ionic species have substance specific environmental transport and distribution properties. In general, the constituents partition predominantly to aquatic environment and adsorption to soils and sediments is not high. Volatility of these water soluble constituents to atmosphere is low. In long term, the constituents undergo abiotic and biotic transformations in the environment that affect the environmental fate properties of the constituents (oxidation/reduction, adsorption/desorption, precipitation).
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.
