Registration Dossier
Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Divanadium pentaoxide was tested by Japanese Authorities under Japan Existing chemicals survey program in CSCL. The study followed the OECD 305 guideline with no deviation and was then judged acceptable to showed that V2O5 did not bioaccumulate in fish species. The BCF found with a concentration of 50 µg V2O5/ L in the environment was 13. This reliable value was kept as key value for chemical safety assessment.
The study from Holdway supports the Japanese value with a BCF varying from 27.9 to 11.6 for 0.041 mg/L to 0.48 mg/L concentrations of vanadium in water.
BCF of vanadium is thus at the low end of the range for metals, and the bioaccumulation danger from vanadium thus appears to be low.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- BCF (aquatic species):
- 13 dimensionless
Additional information
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.
