Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

According to Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006, Annex IX, Column 2, 9.1.6, the testing of the long-term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates is not required. 

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The substance Diisooctadecyl malate (CAS 67763-18-2) is readily biodegradable and poorly soluble in water (< 1 mg/L). Due to these characteristics, extensive elimination of the substance in conventional STPs can be expected. Therefore, only low concentrations, if any, are likely to be released into the water phase. Exposure of aquatic organisms like Daphnids to the substance is thus expected to be low. Furthermore, read across data on short-term toxicity available for all three trophic levels (fish, daphnia and algae) indicate a low potential for aquatic toxicity. Chronic effects of the substance are not expected based on the expected environmental fate and on the data available for acute toxicity of the substance.
